The International Journal of Critical Diversity Studies addresses the key problematic of the construction of difference within intersecting, asymmetrical power relations. It brings together an integrated critique of hierarchical relations of privilege, domination and oppression on all axes of difference, with a particular focus on the normative orders of coloniality/modernity. A closely-knit, interdependent world struggling with the realities of heterogeneity calls for critical approaches to difference that can identify enduring and emerging processes of Othering, and articulate forms and means by which exclusion and hierarchical arrangements can be resisted and reframed. The journal therefore provides a decolonial anti-disciplinary intellectual forum in which plural, just, and ethical sociological imaginations can be cultivated and expanded.

This book critically engages with dominant ideas of cultural homogeneity in the Nordic countries and contests the notion of homogeneity as a crucial determinant of social cohesion and societal security. Showing how national identities in the Nordic region have developed historically around notions of cultural and racial homogeneity, it exposes the varied histories of migration and the longstanding presence of ethnic minorities and indigenous people in the region that are ignored in dominant narratives. With attention to the implications of notions of homogeneity for the everyday lives of migrants and racialised minorities in the region, as well as the increasing securitisation of those perceived not to be part of the homogenous nation, this volume provides detailed analyses of how welfare state policies, media, and authorities seek to manage and govern cultural, religious, and racial differences. With studies of national minorities, indigenous people and migrants in the analysis of homogeneity and difference, it sheds light on the agency of minorities and the intertwining of securitisation policies with notions of culture, race, and religion in the government of difference. As such it will appeal to scholars and students in social sciences and humanities with interests in race and ethnicity, migration, postcolonialism, Nordic studies, multiculturalism, citizenship, and belonging.

Skillingsvisene er en av de betydeligste kulturskattene våre forfedre og -mødre har etterlatt seg. Visene ble trykt i skillings- trykk - små, billige sanghefter med en håndfull vers på rim, som sirkulerte i Norge i perioden 1550 til 1950. Disse sangene er den aller eldste trykte litteraturen som fins her til lands, og i flere hundre år var det også den mest populære. Men frem til nå har skillingsvisene langt på vei vært forbigått i forskningen. I denne boken har 17 forskere bidratt til å bringe skillingsvisene frem fra forglemmelsens mørke. Hva handlet skillingsvisene om, hvem skrev dem, hvordan ble de solgt og sunget, og hva betydde de for menneskene som lyttet til dem? Boken belyser emnemangfoldet i skillingsvisene - fra dommedag, naturkatastrofer og mord, til kjærlighet, sladder og skøyteløp. Skillingsvisene i Norge 1550-1950 er den første norske vitenskapelige antologien om skillingstrykk. Den følges av den frittstående antologien Arven fra skillingsvisene. Fra en sal på hospitalet til en sofa fra IKEA av Siv Gøril Brandtzæg og Bjarne Markussen (red.).
