Doing discourse and development
Church, migration and populism in Norway
When migration is high on the political agenda, religious communities are challenged in terms of their identity, formation and public witness. In this article I draw on official documents and public statements from the Church of Norway as well as examples of preaching practices in the context of increased numbers of refugees and asylum seekers and populist/far-right politics. The aim is to discuss the implicit and explicit ecclesiological and pol…
Normativity in intercultural communication – what now
Challenging the idea that ethical consideration and normative reflection are relatively recent in interculturality research, Dominic Busch begins with the assumption that ‘research on intercultural
Democracy and Climate Justice
Although controversial, the concept of the Anthropocene has gained prominence in the scholarly and political discourse on climate change, its effects and implications. This article presents key characteristics and dimensions of the Anthropocene with an emphasis on Bruno Latour’s interpretation and analysis of the term. This provides the background for a discussion of how religious actors and Christian theology have conceptualized climate change a…
Oil Dependence and Climate Change
Petroleum production and consumption are not only a source of wealth and welfare, but also a root cause of contemporary climate change. This article deals with the cultural role of petroleum in contemporary globalized societies and how public theology can address the relationship between oil and climate change. I will examine how the Church of Norway is responding to Norwegian petroleum production and climate change and how the church understands…
Listening to the Other - Intercultural communication in times of crisis
In this paper I discuss the role of intercultural communication in times of crisis. First I give an account of current crisis communication research and consider how it relates to the academic field of intercultural communication. I then discuss how the understanding of crisis is constructed through communication in the public sphere and highlight how this implies a challenge to intercultural communication studies. The case of religious climate c…
Empire and Ethics Towards a Normative Theory of Intercultural Communication
In this paper I identify key features of communication and then ask in what ways power is a feature of intercultural communication. I discuss this by making use of key concepts from postcolonial theory: Empire, marginalisation and hybridity. Secondly, I discuss how the understanding of intercultural communication practice and theory should be informed by ethical considerations. I argue the presence of Empire puts a moral obligation on the relativ…

Development, ethics and theology
In this paper, I address the interdisciplinary character of development studies and ethics by discussing the relationship between Christian theology and development studies in general and development ethics in particular. I begin by presenting development theology, a kind of theology that critically reflects on the meaning and implications of the Christian faith with regard to improving the lives of people living in material poverty. This kind of…
Witnesses of Wealth.Development Workers, Intercultural Communication and Norwegian National Identity
In this article the broader topic of communication and identity is addressed through a discussion of intercultural involvement and national identity in the case of Norway. The main research question is how Norwegian expatriate development workers discursively sustain, challenge and (re)construct Norwegian national identity. Discussing this I draw on material from a recent study where I interviewed twenty-three development workers (). In the analy…
