A Study of Two Opposing Social Movements in the Norwegian Abortion Struggle 1970-1981 SISTERHOOD VS CONGREGATION A study of two opposing social movements in the Norwegian abortion struggle 1970-1981 Jonas Bertelsen Enge Master Thesis in Contemporary History University of Oslo May 10 2018 I SISTERHOOD VS CONGREGATION A study of two social movements in the Norwegian abortion struggle 1970-1981 II Copyright Jonas Bertelsen Enge 2018 Sisterhood vs Congregation Jonas Bertelsen Enge http://www.duo.uio.no Print: Webergs Printshop III SUMMARY This master thesis is an analysis of the Norwegian abortion struggle from the activists’ perspective. The collective mobilizations, arguments and strategies are examined through theories of social movements. It sets out as an examination on how historians have narrated this national event and attempts to bring a divided history back together. The women’s movement was able to push the demand for self-determined abortion into the national agenda and, through mobilizations in alliance with the socialist parties and medical activists, achieved self-determined abortion in 1978. On the other side, a Popular Action against Self- determined Abortion and opponents within the Church and the medical profession, in defence of the unborn child, were central in resisting a new abortion law in 1974 and influencing abortion laws in 1975 and 1978. This thesis attempts to critically bring the origins and actions of the two movements together and see how the activists organized themselves, how they networked and their repertoires of protests. The story highlights interrelations and dynamics between the two movements in the period from 1974-1979 before ending with the transformation of abortion opposition in the early 1980s IV ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS It has been a pleasure and a privilege to write this historical thesis. I am deeply grateful for having had a collective movement of helpers, ready to mobilize. First and foremost, I am thankful for having had two inspiring supervisors. Knut Kjeldstadli offered solutions to many theoretical and practical problems, gave helpful comments on the drafts and his extensive knowledges, sense of humour and political insights made all conversations and seminars a pleasure. I was truly lucky to get Eirinn Larsen as assistant supervisor. She pushed me to critically research the historiography and the historical narratives of my chosen topic. Her sharp eye and inspiring comments in seminars have surely expanded the ambitions of this project. I also want to thank historian Veronique Pouillard for critical comments on the project description and for opening my eyes to see that everything is history, during her course on consumer societies some years ago. Thanks to all fellow students on the history program at UiO for providing a friendly and creative learning atmosphere, especially all members of the study group “The Hermeneutic Circle”. In the early phase, I was lucky to discuss the project with historian and activist Trine Rogg Korsvik. These encouraging conversations gave the project a clear direction. I also want to mention historian Hanne Hagtvedt Vik for believing in the project and for arguing convincingly in favour of writing in English. I am also grateful for informative conversations with Ellen Aansen who willingly shared her extensive knowledges on the abortion struggle. I want to thank Kjersti Åberg at Arbark, Trine Berg Kopperud at the Storting archive, Hildegunn Bomnes at Amathea and Morten Dahle Stærk at Menneskeverd for facilitating archive searches and solving mysteries. A special thanks to Birgit Bjerck, Inge Ås, Ragnhild Halvorsen and Astor Reigstad for providing me with materials from their private archives. They and the other activists from the abortion struggle deserve special thanks for willingly sharing their memories and thoughts with me. A big thanks to my friends Susann Halvari Johansen and Line Schou for respectively helping out with the design of the timelines and proofreading. Finally, I want to give a warm hug to my dear Cathrine for patiently enduring these two years of intense whining and mansplaining.

  • Norge Og Internasjonal Befolkningspolitikk Ca 1945 - 1980 - Med Vekt På Familieplanlegging
    Norge og internasjonal befolkningspolitikk ca 1945 - 1980 - med vekt på familieplanlegging Av Einar Monstad Masteroppgave i historie Institutt for arkeologi, historie, kultur- og religionsvitskap Det humanistiske fakultet Universitetet i Bergen Våren 2018 i Abstract High birth rates in the world's poorest countries combined with falling death rates due to improved nutrition and health resulted in a rapid increase in the population. Food production could not keep up with the increased population wich could lead to social and political unrest and threaten the West's security. As a small state, Norway could contribute to peace in the world by pursuing economic equalization, but a rapid population growth impedes increased prosperity and a sustainable development, hence population control was necessary to reduce birth rates. From the 1970s, the importance of womens participiation in development was acknowledged, and individual reproductive rights and health became the key to reducing population growth. This master thesis discusses how the challenges related to the rapid population growth were met in Norway. The first part of this thesis questions the effect of rapid population growth on the political socity in Norway. The second part focuses on how Norway met the threat as perceived and described in UN reports, conferences and action plans.The third part focuses on the practical policies that were designed to meet the population growth and implementing the chosen solutions. Forord Først og fremst vil jeg rette en stor takk til min veileder Astri Andresen, som har gitt meg inspirasjon, oppmuntring, støtte og fremfor alt faglig veiledning gjennom de siste to årene. Takk til veiledere og medstudenter i seminargruppen Individ, kultur og samfunn i Europa etter 1800 for mange nyttige innspill.

  • Ihlen (2004) Rhetoric and Resources
    For my parents Abstract The aim of this dissertation is to discuss the influence that organizations have on public policies through their rhetoric and use of resources. The empirical focus is on public relations strategies regarding the public policy area on energy and the environment. Two case studies are conducted, centering on what have been the two most controversial environmental conflicts in Norway; the first concerns a hydroelectric development and the second relates to the building of gas-fired power plants. The environmentalists lost the first conflict, whereas the latter plants have still not been built. The theoretical starting point for the dissertation is within the realm of rhetorical studies of public relations, but it is argued that these studies have seldom contained specific suggestions for how to go about broad-based analyses. Furthermore, it is claimed that the studies have remained ontologically underdeveloped, which means that they do not offer analytical frameworks that make it possible to account adequately for organizational actors’ influence on, for instance, matters of public policy. The dissertation thus contains a suggestion for a heuristic analytical device drawing on a wide range of rhetorical concepts, combined with a sociological analysis of resources like economic capital, degree of institutionalization, knowledge, networks, and social standing. Historical reconstructions are made of the two cases. The research material is a sample of public relations material from the organizational actors, including brochures and advertisements, but also other texts, such as applications for building permits, and comments made to newspapers. Furthermore, qualitative interviews were conducted with representatives of the organizations involved.
