Religious Complexity in Nordic Public Spheres
This article studies empirically the complexity of religion in the public sphere by systematically comparing the five Nordic countries. Sociologists debate if current trends in the West point to secularization or a return of religion (deprivatization, desecularization, or post-secularity). By drawing on the social science complexity reference, this article offers a critique of current scholarship and introduces the concept of religious complexity…
Religion between Politics and Media: Conflicting Attitudes towards Islam in Scandinavia
Based on a comparative project on media and religion across Denmark, Norway, and Sweden, this article analyzes relationships between religiosity and political attitudes in Scandinavia and how these connect with attitudes regarding the representation of Islam in various media. Data comes from population-wide surveys conducted in the three countries in April 2015. Most Scandinavians relate ‘religion’ with conflict, and half of the population percei…
Mediatization and secularization: Transformations of public service institutions – the case of Norway
Mediatization: Theorizing the interplay between media, culture and society
In response to Deacon and Stanyer’s article ‘Mediatization: Key Concept or Conceptual Bandwagon?’ we argue that they build their criticism on a simplified methodology. They mistake a media-centered approach for a media-centric one, and they do not capture how mediatization research engages with the complex relationship between changes in media and communication, on the one hand, and changes in various fields of culture and society on the other. W…
Mediatized Stories in Mediatized Worlds
Youth use digital media for self-representations in different life settings, and young people practise ‘digital storytelling’ in particular ‘mediatized worlds’. This book aims to explore the extent to which contemporary social worlds and lifeworlds are mediatized. The international Mediatized stories project may throw light on digital storytelling in mediatized worlds, and the dimensions of mediatized worlds — as laid out in the introduction to t…

Mediatization of Communication
Mediatization characterizes changes in practices and institutions in media-saturated societies, thus denoting transformations of these societies. The volume makes a valuable contribution to the understanding of contemporary processes of social, cultural and political changes. The handbook offers a broad spectrum of different approaches to mediatization of communication and in this way provides the reader with the most current state of research
Mediated Religion Across Time and Space. A Case Study of Norwegian Newspapers

This article is a theoretical contribution aiming to develop fruitful concepts for use at the present stage of research on religion and the Internet.

Télévision, réception et identité dans une ville africaine
Cet article sur la construction des identités montre que les flux globaux d’information fournissent aux acteurs de nouvelles ressources dans des contextes donnés.

Mediascape missionaries: Notes on religion as identity in a local African setting
Addressing the issue of identity construction, this article shows that global fluxes of information provide new resources to actors in specific settings. The field analysed here is that of Anglicanism in Africa. Building on theoretical elements from Arjun Appadurai, Pierre Bourdieu and Michael Schudson, the discussion is based on empirical material concerning the relationship between media, religion and culture in a small religious community in Z…

Media, religion and democratic participation: Community communication in Zimbabwe and Norway
How do people's references to religion and media shape democratic participation in small-scale communities? This research question is applied to pilot case studies across two continents, namely the growth point of Tsanzaguru in Zimbabwe and the municipality of Sør-Aurdal in Norway. In each community, ten `general influential opinion leaders' were interviewed ahead of the 1995 elections. `Religious belonging' (i.e. affiliation to various Christian…
Religion and the Media in the Nordic Countries
Closed Circles An Essay on Culture and Pietism in Norway
L'établissement de 'cercles fermés' opérant une opposition aux 'autres' dans la communication et l'interaction sociale caractérise la culture densément intégrée des Norvégiens. C'est également le cas dans le domaine des relations religieuses où le pié tisme ocupe traditionnellement une position forte. Ce type de pié tisme a conribué à la destruction de la structure de crédibilité de l'Eglise nationale danoise par sa distinction prononcée entre 'i…
