Exploring the “Cozy Cabal of Academics, Dealers and Collectors” through the Schøyen Collection
2020
In the wake of the trade in ancient materials, several ethical and political issues arise that merit concern: The decimation of the cultural heritage of war-torn countries, proliferation of corruption, ideological connotations of orientalism, financial support of terrorism, and participation in networks involved in money laundering, weapon sales, human trafficking and drugs. Moreover, trafficking and trading also have a harmful effect on the fabric of academia itself. This study uses open sources to track the history of the private Schø

Forecasting Changes in Religiosity and Existential Security with an Agent-Based Model
2018
We employ existing data sets and agent-based modeling to forecast changes in religiosity and existential security among a collective of individuals over time. Existential security reflects the extent of economic, socioeconomic and human development provided by society. Our model includes agents in social networks interacting with one another based on the education level of the agents, the religious practices of the agents, and each agent's existential security within their natural and social environments. The data used to inform the values and relationships among these variables is based on rigorous statistical analysis of the International Social Survey Programme Religion Module (ISSP) and…
Altomfattende, altinngripende og altoppslukende? : En kvalitativ studie av livssyn og forholdet til religion hos ledelsen i Den nordiske motstandsbev…
2020
Master's thesis in Social science (SV505) I dette prosjektet har jeg undersøkt livssynet hos Den nordiske motstandsbevegelsen, deres forhold til religion og hvilket romledelsen gir for medlemmers tros- og religionsutøvelse. Ved bruk av dokumentanalyse av tekster og podkaster, som ligger tilgjengelig på nettsidene til organisasjonen, samt e-postintervju med ledelsen, har jeg samlet inn et datamateriale for å kunne si noe om disse sidene av bevegelsen. Livssynet hos Den nordiske motstandsbevegelsen velger jeg å beskrive som altomfattende, altinngripende og altoppslukende. Nasjonalsosialismen, som er organisasjonens livssyn, beskrives av ledelsen som et komplett verdensbilde, som har svaret på…

Oltre la ricerca del Graal, il divenire del mito
2014
A mythologist's study of the Graal cultural tradition. Using Francesco Zambon's recent Metamorfosi del Graal as his starting point, the author undertakes an analysis on the importance of the Graal in Western mystical, philosophical and literary traditions throughout time, from the impact of the medieval Graal stories on the matière de Bretagne and beyond (Troyes, Boron), to the appeal of this myth in modern times, including its occurrence on Richard Wagner, Martin Heidegger, Simone Weil, Italo Calvino and Umberto Eco.
Routes and relations in Scandinavian interfaith forums: Governance of religious diversity by states and majority churches
2018
In the Scandinavian countries of Denmark, Norway, and Sweden, as elsewhere in Europe, governance of religious diversity has become a matter of renewed concern. A unique aspect of the Scandinavian situation is the hegemonic status of the respective Lutheran Protestant majority churches, usually referred to as ‘folk churches’, with which the majority of the population associates, alongside a prevalence of high degrees of regional secularism. As such, the majority churches have played a key role as both instigators and organisers of several interfaith initiatives, and have thereby come to interact with the public sphere as providers of diversity governance. Based on country-level studies of po…
