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 Martha Louise. The position of Lutheran Protestantism
as "national religion" particularly impacts on the development and
perception of religious competitors.
