About this product
Product Information
This volume investigates "alternative" spiritualities that increasingly cater for the mainstream within the secularized society of Norway, making Norwegian-based research available to international scholarship. It looks at New Age both in a restricted (sensu stricto) and a wide sense (sensu lato), focusing mainly on the period from the mid 1990s and onwards, with a particular emphasis on developments after the turn of the century. Few, if any, of the ideas and practices discussed in this book are homegrown or uniquely Norwegian, but local soil and climate still matters, as habitats for particular growths and developments. Globalizing currents are here shaped and molded by local religious history and contemporary religio-political systems, along with random incidences, such as the setting up of an angel-business by the princess Märtha Louise. The position of Lutheran Protestantism as "national religion" particularly impacts on the development and perception of religious competitors.

". . . what we find is a selection of texts that covers a wide range of topics, making for a rewarding reading experience."--Swartz, Karen, International Journal for the Study of New Religions 10.1 (2019) "New Age in Norway has two objectives: 1) to make research on New Age spirituality in Norway available to the international research community; and 2) to help develop what the editors call a third wave of New Age studies that takes seriously the theoretical potential of New Age for general studies of religion (p. 5). . . . The book succeeds in both of its aims. . . . New Age in Norway is a commendably well-edited anthology, with a clear red thread, balanced in scope, methods, and theoretical perspectives, and offering a coherent view of the subject matter. It is highly recommended for anyone interested in contemporary religiosity in the Scandinavian countries, and required reading for scholars wishing to follow the research trends on New Age and NRMs globally." --Egil Asprem, Stockholm University, Aries Journal for the Study of Western Esotericism 20 (2020) 273-302 "This book will be of interest and use to scholars of religion, particularly those specializing in New Age or alternative religions, and also to a general readership curious about what religion is in a contemporary, secularized society." --Susannah Crockford, London School of Economics, Nova Religio

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
