Changing Religiosities in the Nordic Countries

From decades-long shifts in state-Church relations to the intimate spiritual journeys of individuals, religious change in the Nordic countries defies simple explanation. This volume advances the Complexity Frame of Reference, a new theoretical framework that enables nuanced analysis of transformation at every level of scale.Together, the fourteen chapters offer a vivid and multifaceted portrait of religious change in the Nordic region, showing how the Complexity Frame accommodates analyses ranging from comparisons of large-scale social trends - examined in ways that reveal significant local and national disparities - to the most personal religious quests.
