Understanding Literacy in Its Historical Contexts
In this detailed study of the history of universal literacy in Sweden, a group of renowned scholars review and explore the possibilities for the wider circulation and broader application of central dimensions of the early literacy studies, expounding upon the work of the Swedish Lutheran pastor and pioneering social historian Egil Johansson. Working initially with parish registers, especially examination registers from northern Sweden, Johansson discovered the extraordinary usefulness of these documents to determine how literacy in Sweden occurred well before any other European nation, despite the fact that Sweden was industrialized about 100 years later than the European norm. Egil Johansson also developed imaginative data-analysis techniques that help historians around the world to better picture the complete human cast of the past. With the help of numerous contributors Johansson founded a giant database of church records and other information, which now can help the understanding of preindustrial society. Johansson's work spans over many aspects of literacy and social history and their respective relation to religion and gender.
Religious Diversity and Education. Nordic Perspectives
In the last ten years or so, religious plurality has become higher on the agenda for religious education research in the Nordic countries. This attention to religious plurality partly reflects processes of globalisation that include both physical migration and communication of ideas and is-sues across the world, making it ‘smaller’. It also reflects the preoccupation of governments with social cohesion and, as part of this, intercultural education. In the curricula of the Nordic countries this is manifested in different ways, setting also the agenda for parts of educational research. This book addresses issues related to the increasing religious plurality in the Nordic countries. These i...
Signposts - Policy and practice for teaching about religions and non-religious world views in intercultural education
How can the study of religions and non-religious world views contribute to intercultural education in schools in Europe? An important recommendation from the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe (Recommendation CM/Rec(2008)12 on the dimension of religions and non-religious convictions within intercultural education) aimed to explain the nature and objectives of this form of education. Signposts goes much further by providing advice to policy makers, schools (including teachers, senior managers and governors) and teacher trainers on tackling issues arising from the recommendation. Taking careful account of feedback from education officials, teachers and teacher trainers in Council ...
Machtvergessenheit
Das Konzept der Deutungsmacht fragt nach der Macht zur Deutung und der Macht der Deutung. Es reagiert damit auf die latente Machtvergessenheit hermeneutischer Tradition, profiliert sowohl die Arbeit am Deutungs- als auch am Machtbegriff und versucht, die Verschränkungen von Deutungs- und Machtprozessen aufzuzeigen. Dabei werden besonders konkurrierende Deutungen und ihre konfligierenden Geltungsansprüche in den Blick genommen. Dieser Band entfaltet das Potential von Deutungsmachtanalysen erstmalig innovativ und multiperspektivisch im Kontext praktisch-theologischer Reflexion. In einem ersten Teil werden Grundfragen der Deutungsmachtanalyse aufgenommen und entfaltet, wie das Fach Praktische...
Values, Religions and Education in Changing Societies
Education is a societal matter and takes place in relation to societal changes. Today, in many countries, it has to grapple with diversity and differences brought about by migration and changes in gender relations. Questions of values, human rights and the role of religions are raised. In this book scholars from Sweden, Norway, Germany, Great Britain, Canada, Namibia and South Africa discuss the issues above. Similarities as well as differences are highlighted. The varied contributors engage in a North-South dialogue. Among the questions addressed are: Can the Scandinavian countries be understood as more religious than their up-to-date, seemingly secularist reputation has led us to believe? ...

Religious Education in a Mediatized World
In religious education, digitization and mediatization processes result in the transformation of conventional media formats. This leads to the development of new media formats, which in turn necessitates a redefinition of the relationship between religious education and the media. Keeping this in mind, this volume first examines the importance of media for specific theological disciplines, and then discusses current media-pedagogical and media-didactic approaches. Later in the book, the authors develop didactic perspectives on various methods; these include internet-based archive work and the use of digital teaching materials. They also deal with current questions regarding religious educati...
Digitale Medien im Religions- und Ethikunterricht
Bildungsprozesse mit, in und durch digitale Medien etablieren sich zunehmend in der Schule. Die einzelnen Fachdidaktiken stehen vor der Herausforderung, Methoden und Themen, die diesen inhärent sind, für sich zu bewerten und Sinnvolles zu integrieren, indem sie es für das jeweilige Fach entsprechend modifizieren. Der Lehrkraft kommt dabei eine entscheidende Rolle zu. Die vorliegende empirische Arbeit analysiert die Faktoren, die eine Integration digitaler Medien in den Ethik- bzw. Religionsunterricht bedingen, vor dem Hintergrund der jeweiligen Fachdidaktik, um mögliche Handlungsoptionen für die Lehrkräfteausbildung zu benennen.
