Nordisk konferanse for behandlere som arbeider med traumatiserte flyktninger FROM POWERLESSNESS TO STRENGTH FRA AVMAKT TIL STYRKE STAVANGER 6. - 7. June 2019 Welcome! When Stavanger celebrated its status as Cultural Capital of Europe in 2008, the slogan that defined the program Welcome was «OPEN PORT». Stavanger has long been proud to identify with openness, exemplified by its history as a city 3 of Christian missionaries leaving the port, of the herring industry exporting «King Oscar Sardines» all over the world, and as a city of shipowners sending their ships from the port around the globe. More recently, Stavan- ger has welcomed an international society of people connected to the oil industry, making Stavanger the most Program international city in Norway. When waves of asylum seekers entered Norway in 2015, the Mayor of Stavanger, 4 Christine Sagen Helgø made clear that the asylum seekers and refugees were welcome in Stavanger. The King’s representative in Rogaland County, Magnhild Meltveit Kleppa announced that «we will take care of the refugees in a good way”. Abstracts 9 This openness is being continuously challenged, as xenophobic attitudes are growing and have been much more openly expressed in both Norway and the rest of the world during recent years. These changes affect the lives of asylum seekers and refugees living in this country, and may leave them with feelings of powerlessness. Profes- Keynote speakers sionals and volunteers who assist them may also realize that a more restrictive immigration policy may make the 22 road from powerlessness to strength much harder for refugees, and indeed leave them experiencing the same feelings themselves. About the conference This conference seeks to address the necessary shift from experienced powerlessness to strength for refugees 24 and asylum seekers, as well as for those who seek to assist them and the politicians who strive for more humane immigration policies. We open our port to you who have chosen to participate in these two days of exchange, inspiration and development, and look forward to the sharing of experiences with each other.

    Porvoo Prayer Diary 2021

    PORVOO PRAYER DIARY 2021 The Porvoo Declaration commits the churches which have signed it ‘to share a common life’ and ‘to pray for and with one another’. An important way of doing this is to pray through the year for the Porvoo churches and their Dioceses. The Prayer Diary is a list of Porvoo Communion Dioceses or churches covering each Sunday of the year, mindful of the many calls upon compilers of intercessions, and the environmental and production costs of printing a more elaborate list. Those using the calendar are invited to choose one day each week on which they will pray for the Porvoo churches. It is hoped that individuals and parishes, cathedrals and religious orders will make use of the Calendar in their own cycle of prayer week by week. In addition to the churches which have approved the Porvoo Declaration, we continue to pray for churches with observer status. Observers attend all the meetings held under the Agreement. The Calendar may be freely copied or emailed for wider circulation. The Prayer Diary is updated once a year.

    3 the Black Death in Norway: Arrival, Spread, Mortality

    3 The Black Death in Norway: Arrival, Spread, Mortality. Discussions with Birger Lindanger and Hallvard Bjørkvik 3.1 Introduction The Black Death has long been a central topic in the Norwegian historiography on the late Middle Ages. In the period c. 1920-80, agrarian historians showed that the Black Death caused a tremendous contraction of settlement and a steep fall in rents and taxes, which must reflect a demographic disaster. It must have been an exceedingly important event in Norwegian history. It was known that there were later plague epidemics, but their individual and collective significance attracted scant interest. In his highly regarded History of Norway until the Introduction of Absolutism in 1660, Andreas Holmsen characteristically mentioned only the Black Death, which made incomprehensible the continued deepening of the crisis and its duration.482 The epidemiological and medical dimensions of the Black Death and later plague epidemics remained almost completely ignored before I made this the subject of my thesis for the degree Doctor of Philosophy, Plague in the Late Medieval Countries: Epidemiological Studies (1992).483 In 2002, appeared (in Norwegian) my monograph , The Black Death and Later Plague Epidemics in Norway: The History of Plague Epidemics in Norway 1348-1654. This monograph offers a complete account of Norwegian plague history, numerous waves of plague epidemics over 300 years. Evidently, it focuses on the epidemiological and medical dimensions of plague, but examines also the demographic and economic effects (as far as the sources permit). The great advantage of a complete historical study is that it provides the opportunity to uncover systematic long-term patterns of regularity.

    6Amoral threattosociety? – the Jesuit danger 1814–1961 Afather and his “Jesuitism” From 1928 onwards,Heinrich Roos (1904–1977) was aJesuitfather in Copenha- gen. He was German-born, but had acquired Danishcitizenship. Ever since the Jesuits had been expelled from Bismarck’sGermanyinthe early1870s, Jesuit schools in Denmark had taught in both Germanand Danish. ManyGermans soughttoattend DanishJesuit schools, especiallyduringthe period whenthe or- der’sinstitutions werebanned in Germany.Roos taught at the school in Copen- hagen, in addition to holding aposition as philologist at the city’suniversity.¹ In February 1954,the Theological Association in Norwayapplied to the Min- istry of Justice on behalf of Roos for an exemption from the constitutional ban on Jesuits.They wanted him to visit the country to present alecture on the work and teachings of the Jesuits.² The issue of the exclusion of the Jesuits had been raised in connection with the government’sratification of the European Convention on Human Rights in 1951. Norwayhad expressed reservations about the clause on religious freedom because of the ban on Jesuits, which, at an international level, was problematic and controversial. In 1952, therefore, the government for- warded aproposal to repeal this last exclusionary provision from the Constitu- tion. It was in this context that Father Roos applied to come to Norway – but he was turned down. Giving his reasoning,Minister of Justice KaiBirgerKnudsen (1903–1977) in Oscar Torp’s(1893–1958) Labour Party government explained that it was

  • Frode Iversen

    13 The urban hinterland Interaction and law-areas in Viking and medieval Norway Frode Iversen Introduction While previous research on urbanisation in Scandinavia has focused upon the role of the king and the Church as founders and developers of towns, less attention has been directed towards the economic and legal preconditions and rami!cations of this development, in particular the way trade in the rural hin- terlands of towns developed and was regulated in relation to an urban market. The legal assembly through which administrative and economic changes were channelled – the thing – was a particularly strong institution in Scandinavian societies compared to Central Europe (Taranger 1898; Imsen 1990; Iversen 2013).). ThisTaylor may have played anda crucial role Francisin the economic development of urban hinterlands and controlcont over inland markets, in particular regarding the surplus production of important commodities such as hunting produce and iron fromNot the ‘Mountain for Land’ Distribution (Holm et al. 2005; Rundberget 2012). What e"ect did urbanisation and emerging market power have on inland regions and law administration in the Viking Age and Middle Ages? During the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries most of the Norwegian rural lawthings were relocated to coastal towns. Both urban and rural lawthings were administered by a lawman who, although situated in the town, nevertheless also actively participated in important things and legal meetings in the rural hin- terland. Hence, legal matters drew people to certain towns. Previous research on Norse legal organisation has mainly addressed the internal administrative organisation of the medieval towns (Helle 2006: 114–18), to a lesser degree discussing the towns as legal centres for a greater hinterland.

  • PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT BETWEEN the CENTRAL SYNOD of the MALAGASY LUTHERAN CHURCH (Synodam-Paritany Afovoany, Spaf, and the DIOCESE of STAVANGER (Church of Norway)

    PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CENTRAL SYNOD OF THE MALAGASY LUTHERAN CHURCH (Synodam-Paritany Afovoany, SPAf, AND THE DIOCESE OF STAVANGER (Church of Norway) Background: Since 1866 there has been a close relationship between the Malagasy Lutheran Church and the Church of Norway, through the work of the Norwegian Mission Society (NMS) in Madagascar. As NMS has a formal relationship to the Church of Norway, the two churches have a long standing formal relationship. This is also confirmed by our membership in The Lutheran World Federation and other ecumenical fora. There have been personal links between church leaders in Stavanger and Fianarantsoa, but no written agreement has been signed on a synodal/diocesan level between the two partners until now. As a means of sharing information, a document of information from both partners is attached to this agreement. On this basis we agree on the following: We will: Stand together in mission and service Include each other in prayer, by exchanging subjects for thanksgiving and intercession. Arrange for exchange and visits that will forward the Church’s mission in both Stavanger Diocese and The Central Synod. Use our websites and other methods to aid regular communication. Have a committee on both sides that follows up the agreement. Areas of co-operation In the following areas we will learn from one another: Pastoral work and role of lay people: o Share experiences and reflections . On lay peoples´ place and role in church . On the understanding of the pastoral role in different societies . On encouraging young people to seek ministry o Exchange ideas on the role of women in church.
