    Nye perspektiv på Hans Nielsen Hauge (2023)

    Description: Hans Nielsen Hauge established and led at the end of the 18th century Norway's first nationwide popular movement, a low church network that would leave its mark on everyday life, business development and politics in the transition from absolute monarchy to representational government. People called themselves Haugians long after Hauge's death in 1824. It was a spiritual awakening on a scale that deserves considerable room when we write the history of modern Norway. This book provides a new perspective on the roots of the Hauge movement in the religious mentality of the 18th century, on how it functioned in its most radical phase up to 1814, and on the importance of the network for economic modernization and political mobilization in the subsequent decades. Retrospective interpretations of Hauge's complex endeavor are also explored. In sum, the nine chapters provide a broader understanding of the Hauge movement and the era in which it flourished. We hope that the book also sheds light on the state of Norway's people, government and religiosity today, over 250 years after Hauge's birth. The book has been edited by research fellow Eli Morken Farstad and associate professor Kristian Holen Nymark, both historians at the University of South-Eastern Norway.
    Description: Hans Nielsen Hauge startet Norges første landsomfattende folkebevegelse på slutten av 1700-tallet. Det lavkirkelige nettverket satte sitt preg på hverdagsliv, næringsutvikling og politikk i overgangen fra enevelde til folkestyre. Folk kalte seg haugianere lenge etter Hauges død i 1824. En slik vekkelse må få stor plass når vi skriver historien om det moderne Norge. Denne boka gir nye perspektiv på Hauge-bevegelsens røtter i 1700-tallets religiøse mentalitet, på hvordan vekkelsen virket i sin mest radikale fase fram mot 1814, og på nettverkets betydning for økonomisk modernisering og politisk mobilisering framover i hundreåret. Ettertidens fortolkning av Hauges mangslungne virksomhet blir også lagt under lupen. I sum gir de ni kapitlene en bredere forståelse av Hauge-bevegelsen og tiden den virket i. Vi håper at boka også kan kaste lys over folk, stat og religiøsitet i dag, over 250 år etter Hauges fødsel. Boka er redigert av stipendiat Eli Morken Farstad og førsteamanuensis Kristian Holen Nymark, begge historikere ved Universitetet i Sørøst-Norge.

    Publication Date: 2024-04-04
    Description: Finland was an autonomous Grand Duchy in the Russian Empire during the years 1808–1917. At this time nationalism as well as other ideologies reached Finland from Europe, which strengthened the willingness to change both in society and on a governmental level. The Fennoman movement, which was a movement focusing both on language and on nationalism, became the core of the Finnish self-perception. The goal was to define Finland as a coherent and separate country in relation to its neighbouring countries. Collecting folk poems and learning to know one’s home country became essential. People saw the Kalevala poems as a way to understand and define the Finnish identity and the history of the Finnish people. Especially young people with a background in academia were intrigued by these ideas. University students collected poems all over the Grand Duchy of Finland as well as in the Russian part of Carelia, in Sweden, Norway and in Ingria. Students who collected these folk poems also wrote travelogues about their travels and all this material was handed over to The Finnish Literature Society. These documents are unique and there has not been much research done on them, especially with the focus on how the young academic generation during the age of autonomy defined their home country, their national self-perception, themselves and the commoners living in the rural parts of the country. This book reviews travelogues written by one hundred university students who travelled in the country collecting folk poems during 1836–1917. The book offers insight into how the students described Finland and what it meant to be Finnish. Travelogues can be defined as a sort of hybrid of texts. They consist of a mixture of letters, journals, biographical texts and travel books. Consequently, the image that the students depict of Finland is in this study based upon research perspectives and methods used in textual research, oral history and travel literature. The travelogues written by students previously evoked the interest of researchers who mainly studied certain traits of poem collectors, tradition bearers or poems. However, the travelogues contain plenty of information about the lives of the people who lived in the areas where the poems were collected. The descriptions of Finland in the travelogues do not represent the “real” 19th century Finland, but instead it is a story written and created by university students. The characteristics that are presented in The Land of Hope are based on how the intelligentsia perceived “real” Finnishness as opposed to the uneducated commoners living in the rural parts of the country. The most notable themes in the travelogues are the state and the future of the society and of being Finnish. Another theme is the otherization of those who were uneducated commoners. These themes describe the fears and hopes that university students had about Finland. They also show us that the travelogues were ideological texts about Finland and Finnishness that united the collectors of folk poetry. This book studies the collection of folk poetry in the context of the ideologies during the age of autonomy and it explains what the collection of poems meant and who were involved in it. Furthermore, the book gives an insight into the possibilities to pursue academic studies and it also presents the most essential sources of students’ knowledge about Finland at that point of time.

    Musikk og religion (2023)

    Publication Date: 2024-05-12
    Description: Music plays an important role in many religions and in a variety of religious contexts. Music and Religion: Texts on Music in Religion and Religion in Music takes a look at the intersections between music and religion. We experience religion in music, and in religion we encounter musical expression. Although music and religion are unquestionably mutually pervasive, we can also come across gaps between them: Is it possible to move beyond a musical experience toward a religious one without having to hop over this gap? And is there any direct route from religion into music as an acoustic phenomenon? Without a religious interpretation of the music remaining? There is a wealth of research about music and religion, but little on how they meet. That is what this anthology seeks to remedy. Music and Religion will be relevant for anyone with an interest in encounters between these two phenomena. It will be especially relevant for students in performing, composing and scientific music education, as well as theology and religious studies. The anthology has been edited by Henrik Holm (associate professor in education at Oslo Metropolitan University and professor in philosophy at Rudolf Steiner University College) and Øivind Varkøy (professor in music education and music sciences at the Norwegian Academy of Music and professor II in music at Oslo Metropolitan University).
    Description: Musikk spiller en stor rolle i ulike religioner og ulike religiøse sammenhenger. Musikk og religion: Tekster om musikk i religion og religion i musikk setter søkelyset på møtepunkter mellom musikk og religion. Mennesker erfarer religion i musikken, og i religionen møter mennesket i musikalske uttrykk. Selv om musikk og religion utvilsomt gjennomtrenger hverandre, kan vi også støte på gap mellom dem: Er det mulig å overskride en musikalsk erfaring henimot det religiøse uten å måtte hoppe over dette gapet? Og finnes det en vei fra religionen direkte inn i musikken som klangfenomen? Forblir det ikke bare en religiøs fortolkning av musikk? Det finnes mye forskning på musikk og religion, men lite om hvordan de møtes. Denne antologien forsøker å gjøre noe med dette. Musikk og religion retter seg mot alle med interesse for møter mellom disse to livsfenomener. Den vil være særlig aktuell for studenter innenfor utøvende, skapende og vitenskapelige musikkutdanninger, teologi og religionsvitenskap. Boken er redigert av Henrik Holm (førsteamanuensis i pedagogikk, OsloMet, og professor i filosofi, Steinerhøyskolen), og Øivind Varkøy (professor i musikkpedagogikk og musikkvitenskap, Norges musikkhøgskole, og professor II i musikk, OsloMet).

    Description: The volume is a comprehensive handbook of oral history and memory studies in Finland. The Finnish research field has originally emerged at the collaborative intersection of history, folklore studies, and ethnology. Since then, this field has developed into vibrant multi- and cross-disciplinary arena characterized by a strong focus on methodological issues related to memory in culture and theoretical engagement with studies on narration and processes of remembering. The chapters of the book explore the perspectives on the production of memory-based knowledge in oral history interviews and collection campaigns of written reminiscences. Moreover, the book introduces versatile methodological approaches to the study of memory and memories, ranging from narrative to corpus analysis, and investigates the multiple media of remembrance from documentary film to museum exhibition. The chapters of the book also engage the field’s disciplinary position and interrogate the potentials and challenges related to the application of the methods of oral history research and the use of memory-based knowledge beyond academia in political, societal, and community-based projects.

    Description: Ministers, deacons, catechists and cantors are among the church professionals laypeople meet in the context of worship, other church services, and congregational activities. These professionals are upholding a social mission, influencing church practices, setting the tone and developing programs and services within their congregations. What are the hallmarks of the different professions within the church? What insight should church professionals have into each other’s identities and areas of expertise to collaborate and participate in interdisciplinary teamwork? And how, in practical terms, should they be lead? Profession and Leadership in the Church of Norway: Organizing Work of a Church in Change provides sociological and administrative insights into general and contextual phenomena in the church professions. Relationships between professions, administration and organization in the Church of Norway are analyzed in light of empirical studies and an institutional theoretical framework. The author discusses how the professions derive appropriate ways of organizing their work. A key finding in the book is that church professions are characterized by calling, autonomy and complexity. These particular features make value-based leadership especially well-suited to the church professions. Part of the work on a new national church law includes addressing central questions about how the Church of Norway, with its extensive range of services and activities, should be led and organized. This book contributes to a broader base of knowledge about administration and the role of the church professions in this complex. Profession and Leadership in the Church of Norway will be of interest to researchers in professional studies and in organization and management, as well as practitioners: employees, church leaders and advisory council members. Thematically, the book is also relevant for students in educational programs that lead to church employment. Stephen Sirris (PhD) is a professor and leader of the Centre for Values-Based Leadership and Innovation at VID Specialized University’s Faculty of Theology, Diaconia and Leadership Studies.
    Description: Prester, diakoner, kateketer og kantorer er profesjonsutøvere som møter folk i gudstjenester, kirkelige handlinger og aktiviteter i menighetene. De ivaretar et samfunnsoppdrag, har innflytelse over kirkens praksiser, preger menighetslivet og utformer tjenestene. Hva kjennetegner kirkeprofesjonene? Hva slags innsikt bør profesjonsutøverne ha om hverandres identitet og faglighet for å samarbeide og delta i et tverrfaglig samspill? Og hvordan kan profesjonene best mulig ledes i praksis? Profesjon og ledelse i Den norske kirke: Organisering av arbeid i en kirke i endring gir profesjonssosiologiske og ledelsesfaglige innsikter i allmenne og kontekstuelle fenomener ved kirkeprofesjonene. Sammenhenger mellom profesjoner, ledelse og organisering i Den norske kirke analyseres i lys av empiriske studier og et institusjonelt teoretisk rammeverk. Forfatteren drøfter hvordan profesjonene utgjør en hensiktsmessig måte å organisere arbeid på. Et sentralt funn i boken er at kirkens profesjoner kjennetegnes ved kall, autonomi og kompleksitet. Disse særtrekkene bidrar til at verdibasert ledelse er særlig velegnet overfor profesjonene. I arbeidet med ny kirkeordning inngår sentrale spørsmål om hvordan Den norske kirke med sin mangfoldige virksomhet skal ledes og organiseres. Denne boken bidrar til et større kunnskapsgrunnlag om fagledelse og profesjonenes rolle i dette komplekset. Profesjon og ledelse i Den norske kirke er aktuell for forskere i profesjonsstudier og organisasjons- og ledelsesfaglig samt praktikere; ansatte, kirkeledere og rådsmedlemmer. Tematisk er boken også relevant for studenter ved utdanninger som fører til kirkelig stilling. Stephen Sirris (PhD) er professor og leder ved Senter for verdibasert ledelse og innovasjon ved Fakultet for teologi, diakoni og ledelsesfag, VID vitenskapelige høgskole.

    Description: Aberrations of Reason. Capitalist Rationality and its Critique in Juha Seppälä’s Novels Yhtiökumppanit (The Partners, 2002), Paholaisen haarukka (Devil’s Fork, 2008) and Mr. Smith (2012). Juha Seppälä’s early literary works, published in the 1980s and in the early 1990s, usually described spiritually lonely men who suffered from an existential loss of meaning and serious alienation problems in the modern world. After this, Seppälä turned to deal with the transformation of the Finnish way of life and its cultural base, until after the turn of the new millennium he began to critically judge society’s ongoing marketization process. This study analyses his capitalism-critical works, particularly his novels Yhtiökumppanit (The Partners, 2002), Paholaisen haarukka (Devil’s Fork, 2008) and Mr. Smith (2012). These works do not, primarily, consider contemporary market capitalism from a class perspective, although this sort of perspective is also included in them. They are, above all, critical of market capitalist rationality. According to Seppälä, the basic problem of modern economic profit-seeking lies in the fact that in its unchecked form it is largely indifferent with respect to existential, moral, social and ecological values and principles. Free market economy or market capitalism has, therefore, a destructive influence on individuals, communities and ecological systems. The novels at issue emphasize that due to this it is also, in a deeper sense, incapable of producing existentially meaningful ways of life.

    Description: Songs and writings: oral and literary cultures in early-modern Finland renews the understanding of exchange between the learned culture of clergymen and the culture of commoners, or “folk”. What happened when the Reformation changed the position of the oral vernacular language to literary and ecclesiastical, and when folk beliefs seem to have become an object for more intensive surveillance and correction? How did clergymen understand and use the versatile labels of popular belief, paganism, superstition and Catholic fermentation? Why did they choose particular song languages, poetic modes and melodies for their Lutheran hymns and literary poems, and why did they avoid oral poetics in certain contexts while accentuating it in others? How were the hagiographical traditions representing the international medieval literary or “great” tradition adapted to “small” folk traditions, and how did they persist and change after the Reformation? What happened to the cult of the Virgin Mary in local oral traditions? The first Finnish 16th-century reformers admired the new Germanic models of Lutheran congregational hymns and avoided the Finnic vernacular Kalevala-metre idiom, while their successors picked up many vernacular traits, most notably alliteration, in their ecclesiastical poetry and hymns. Over the following centuries, the new features introduced via new Lutheran hymns such as accentual metres, end-rhymes and strophic structures were infusing into oral folk poetry, although this took place also via secular oral and literary routes. On the other hand, seventeenth-century scholars cultivated a new academic interest in what they understood as “ancient Finnish poetry”. The book has an extensive English Summary for the international readership.

    Description: Discursive study of religion (DSR) has become an increasingly recognised and applied approach to the study of religion. It asks: What passes for ‘religion’ in society? How do different constructions of ‘religion’ affect other social spheres such as politics, law, and everyday life, and vice versa? In this collection, Finnish scholars—many of them internationally recognized authorities on the subject—discuss DSR’s theoretical underpinnings, map the variety of discursive approaches, and apply the approach to case studies of politics, spirituality, and history. The book can be used as a textbook for religion and method courses in various disciplines.

    Publication Date: 2024-04-08
    Description: "This book takes the reader on a historical and theological journey through intense awakenings, decisive church foundations and dramatic schisms in southwestern Norway from the 1820s to the present. Based on extensive source material, the book provides new perspectives on the history of the so-called ‘firm believers’ and a nuanced presentation of their theological development from a vigorous revival during the first half of the 19th century to today’s closed religious communities. The Old Paths: The History of ‘Menigheten Samfundet’, ‘Det Almindelige Samfund’ and other ‘firm believers’ describes a diverse religious tradition marked by deep devotion and intellectual rigour, while also giving the reader a glimpse of prominent church leaders, charismatic preachers and devoted believers. Many in Rogaland and Agder today are familiar with ‘lomelendingane’ – adherents of the Menigheten Samfundet sect, named after its founder, Bernt Lomeland – in Kristiansand and Egersund, and such similarly named groups of followers as the ‘perane’ and ‘larsane’, also in Egersund. All of these groups have traditionally been referred to as ‘the firm’ or ‘the firm believers’. Most works on Norwegian church history include brief descriptions of ‘the firm believers’, but no scholarly work entirely devoted to their origins and history has previously been published. As such, this book represents the most comprehensive and updated work on ‘the firm believers’ published to date and it therefore constitutes an important contribution to Norwegian church history. This book will be of value to scholars, students and others with an interest in Norwegian church history, sociology of religion, and closed religious communities. Kyrkjefag Profil is a series established by the Department of Religious Studies at Volda University College. This book is number 41 in the series."
    Description: "Denne boken tar leseren med på en historisk og teologisk reise gjennom intense vekkelser, avgjørende kirkestiftelser og dramatiske kirkesplittelser fra 1820-tallet og frem til i dag. På bakgrunn av et omfattende kildemateriale gir boken nye perspektiver på de sterkttroendes historie og en nyansert presentasjon av deres teologiske utvikling fra en kraftfull vekkelsesbevegelse på første halvdel av 1800-tallet til dagens innadvendte kirkesamfunn. De gamle stier: Historien om Menigheten Samfundet, Det Almindelige Samfund og andre sterkttroende beskriver en mangfoldig religiøs tradisjon preget av dypt alvor og intellektuell tyngde, samtidig som leseren kommer tett på markante kirkeledere, iherdige predikanter og hengivende troende. I dag kjenner mange i Rogaland og på Agder godt til «lomelendingane» i Kristiansand og Egersund, samt «perane» og «larsane» i Egersund. Disse grupperingene tilhører alle den retningen man tradisjonelt har omtalt som «de sterke» eller «de sterkttroende». Selv om de fleste verk om norsk kirkehistorie kort omtaler de sterkttroende, har det frem til nå ikke vært utgitt et samlet vitenskapelig verk som behandler deres historie fra deres opprinnelse og frem til i dag. Boken representerer dermed det mest omfattende og oppdaterte verket om de sterkttroendes historie som så langt har blitt publisert, og utgjør dermed et viktig bidrag til norsk kirkehistorie. Boken retter seg mot forskere, studenter og andre med interesse for norsk kirkehistorie, religionssosiologi og lukkede kirkesamfunn. Kyrkjefag Profil er en serie fra Institutt for religion, livssyn og kyrkjefag ved Høgskulen i Volda. Denne boken er nummer 41 i serien."

    Description: The present multidisciplinary study deals with the legendary bishop Saint Henry of Finland ‒ both the historical person and his medieval ecclesiastical cult, as well as the vernacular folk tradition including The Death-lay of Bishop Henry. The book contains an English and Swedish summary.
    Description: Kuka oli tarunhohtoinen piispa Henrik, josta Suomen evankelis-luterilainen kirkko katsoo institutionaalisen historiansa alkaneen, vai oliko häntä? Milloin Henrikin ja Lallin väitettyyn kohtalokkaaseen kohtaamiseen johtaneista tapahtumista kertova Piispa Henrikin surmavirsi sepitettiin? Entä oliko piispa Henrikin aikalaiseksi väitetty Ruotsin kuningas Erik Jedvardsson eli Eerik Pyhä ammatiltaan pappi? Näihin ja moniin muihin kysymyksiin pyrkii vastaamaan filosofian tohtori Mikko K. Heikkilän teos Kuka oli herra Heinäricki? – piispa Henrikin arvoitus, joka käsittelee monitieteisesti suomalaisittain mm. piispa Henrikiksi ja herra Heinärikiksi kutsuttua kirkonmiestä, Suomen varhaiskeskiajan henkilöistä jälkimaineeltaan ehkä merkittävintä. Teos koostuu kolmesta osasta. Ensimmäisessä osassa jäljitetään usean eri tieteenalan metodein monen tutkijan historialliseksi henkilöksi olettamaa piispa Henrikiä. Toisessa osassa käsitellään Pyhän Henrikin pyhimyskultin syntyä ja ajoitusta. Kolmannessa osassa pyritään rekonstruoimaan ja ajoittamaan Piispa Henrikin surmavirreksi kutsuttu vanha suomenkielinen runo(laulu). Kaikissa kolmessa osassa käsitellään myös kirkollisen ja kansanomaisen Henrik-perinteen ajallista kehitystä. Herra Heinärikkiä jäljittäessään Heikkilän teos käsittelee Pohjois-Euroopan varhaiskeskiajan yleis-, kieli- ja kirkkohistoriaa laajemminkin.

    Luentoja suomalaisesta mytologiasta (2021)

    Description: "Matthias Alexander Castrén’s (1813–1852) Luentoja suomalaisesta mytologiasta (’Lectures on Finnish Mythology’, originally Swedish ’Föreläsningar i finsk mytologi’) is a key work in the research history of Finnish mythology. This is the first Finnish translation of it. Despite ’Lectures’ in the label, the work is a coherent book. It makes a systematic approach to ancient Finnish religion on the basis of earlier mythographers, Castrén’s fieldwork among Finnic peoples and the latest European research trends of the first half of the 19th century. Even though Castrén’s Lectures significantly developed Finnish mythography and it served as a standard work for half a century, its significance was largely forgotten when new research paradigms were introduced in the course of the 20th century. The work is an important part of the history of Finnish research in religions, linguistics and ethnography and it also reflects the state of the study of mythology in Europe in the middle of the 19th century. The book is lively written and therefore, it meets the taste of the general public in addition to researchers. This edition includes a concise introduction to Lectures’ historical context, a scientific commentary and exhaustive indexes. M. A. Castrén is renown especially as a linguist and explorer who worked among Siberian peoples but his work was marked also by interest in Finnishness at a time when the idea of a Finnish nation was developing. Lectures was Castrén’s last work. He finished the book in his deathbed, and it was published posthumously in 1853. The translator and editor of the Lectures, Joonas Ahola, PhD, is an expert in Old Norse language and mythology as well as kalevala-meter poetry. The other author of the introduction, Karina Lukin, PhD, is an expert of North Siberian cultures and 19th century expeditions among them. "

    Description: The edited volume Archives and the Cultural Heritage focuses on archives as institutions and to their tense relationship with archives as material. These dynamics are discussed in respect of the past, the present, and the future. The focus lies in the mechanisms the Finnish archive institutions have utilised when taking part in forming the cultural heritage and in debating the importance of the private archives in society. Within social sciences and history from the early 1990s onwards, the effects of globalisation have been seen as a new focal point for research. Momentarily, the archives saw the same paradigm shift as the focus of the archival studies proceeded from state to society. This brought forth the notion that the values of society are reflected in the acquisition of archival material. This archival turn draws attention to the archives as entities formed by cultural practices. The volume discusses cultural heritage within Finnish archives with diverse perspectives and from various time periods. The key concepts are cultural heritage and archives – both as institution and as material. Articles review the formation of archival collections spanning from the 19th to the 21st century and highlight that the archives have never been neutral or objective actors; rather, they have always been an active process of remembering and forgetting, a matter of inclusion and exclusion. The focus is on private archives and on the choices that guided the creation of the archives and the cultural perceptions and power structures associated with them. Although private archives have considerable social and research value, and although their material complements the picture of society provided by documentary data produced by public administrations, they have only risen to the theoretical discussions in the 21st century. The authors consider what has happened before the material ends up in the archive, what happens in the archive and what can be deduced from this. It shows how archival solutions manifest themselves, how they have influenced research and how they still affect it. One of the key questions is whose past has been preserved and whose is deemed worthy of preservation. Under what conditions have the permanently preserved documents been selected and how can they be accessed? In addition, the volume pays attention to whose documents have been ignored or forgotten, as well as to the networks and power of the individuals within the archival institution and to the politics of memory. The Archives and the Cultural Heritage is an opening to a discussion on the mechanisms, practices and goals of Finnish archival activities. It challenges archival organisations to reflect on their own operating models and to make visible their own conscious or unconscious choices. It raises awareness of the formation of the Finnish documentary cultural heritage, produces new information about private archives and participates in the scientific debate on the changing significance of archives in society. The volume is related to the Academy of Finland research project “Making and Interpreting National Pasts – Role of Finnish Archives as Networks of Power and Sites of Memory” (no 25257, 2011–2014/2019), University of Turku. Project partners Finnish Literature Society (SKS) and Society of Swedish Literature in Finland (SLS).

    Jesus i oversettelse (2020)

    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-08
    Description: "Who is the biblical Jesus? The answer depends on which translation you read. Most people read their Bible translation as “the Bible”. Publishers of the Bible have great power to define the Bible and decide how the biblical Jesus is presented. Jesus i oversettelse is a detailed analysis of the translation processes behind the making of eighteen Christological verses in the translations of the Norwegian Bible Society 1959–2011. Readers are invited to a process that few have access to: How the translations are made, and what considerations and which interests are reflected in the translation choices. To what extent do the translators ensure a distinct understanding of Jesus in the translated text? Do the translations change the meaning and message of the source text, or do the translations preserve the interpretative possibilities? What view of Jesus is reflected in translations of the Norwegian Bible Society? "
    Description: "Hvem er Bibelens Jesus? Svaret avhenger av hvilken oversettelse du leser. Folk flest leser sin bibeloversettelse som «Bibelen». Utgivere av Bibelen har stor definisjonsmakt over Bibelen, og bestemmer hvordan Bibelens Jesus blir presentert. Jesus i oversettelse er en detaljert analyse av atten kristologiske vers i Bibelselskapets oversettelser 1959–2011. Leserne blir invitert inn i en prosess som få har innsyn i: Hvordan Bibelselskapets oversettelser lages, og hvilke hensyn og interesser som gjenspeiles i oversettelsesvalgene. I hvilken grad sikrer oversetterne en bestemt forståelse av Jesus i den oversatte bibelteksten? Endrer oversettelsene kildetekstens betydning og budskap, eller ivaretar oversettelsenetolkningsmulighetene som ligger i kildeteksten? Hvilket syn på Jesus reflekteres i Bibelselskapets oversettelser?Tema i denne antologien er universitets- og høgskolesektorens utvikling og forhold til nasjon og region. I Norge har utfordringen med å sveise sammen et land med sterke og sprikende regionale og lokale identiteter vært styrende for nasjonsbyggingsprosjektet. Den politikken som er blitt ført for å bygge ut høyere utdanning og forskning, bærer umiskjennelig preg av å være en del av et slikt prosjekt. Utdannings- og forskningspolitikken har gjennomløpt ulike faser og vært underlagt skiftende paradigmer. Fra 1960-tallet og de første tiår fremover ble det bygd ut UH-institusjoner utover landet, spesielt for å dekke behov for høyt utdannet arbeidskraft i regionene. Resultatet av denne prosessen ble at Norge ved inngangen til 1990-tallet antakelig hadde et av verdens mest desentraliserte UH-systemer målt i forhold til folketallet. Deretter startet en epoke med en serie reformer for konsentrasjon og samling, for å styrke kvalitet, forskning og nasjonal konkurranseevne i en tid der kunnskap er vår viktigste ressurs. Det har vært skiftende syn på styring av og innenfor sektoren, påvirket av internasjonale trender. Det betyr ikke at de regionale ambisjonene ble mindre, men de antok andre former. Behovet for høyt utdannet arbeidskraft var like sterkt til stede, og parallelt kom økte krav til kunnskapsutvikling og samarbeid med regionalt næringsliv og offentlige institusjoner. I denne antologien forsøker vi å gi et riss av den historiske utviklingen som har preget UH-sektoren. Hvordan forstår og forklarer vi den utviklingen vi har hatt? Hvilke interesser, drivkrefter og aktører kan vi identifisere? Hvilke konsekvenser kan vi spore? I noen grad forsøker vi også å se fremover med utgangspunkt i hvor vi nå befinner oss. Bidragene til antologien kommer fra sentrale forskere innenfor feltet. De teoretiske og empiriske inngangene til temaet er ulike. I sitt mangfold gir de et dekkende bilde av den spennende utviklingen bak den universitets- og høgskolesektoren vi har i dag, og de forutsetninger dette gir for å utvikle sektoren videre."
