Faglige interesser

Min forskning fokuserer på utviklingen av religion i samfunnet siden midten av det tjuende århundre, med et spesielt fokus på samtidige former for religiositet i den vestlige verden. Jeg har gjennomført omfattende studier av de politiske kontroversene knyttet til religion i offentlige skoler, og jeg undersøker nå religiøse og sekulære narrativer i sammenheng med COVID-19-pandemien.

Jeg er også interessert i måten religiøse samfunn tilpasser og adopterer tradisjonelle og nye medier til deres religiøse formål. For å oppnå dette har jeg undersøkt de dynamiske relasjonene mellom religion, medier og samfunn blant evangelikale og Jehovas vitner.

I en historisk kontekst er jeg fascinert av den sammenvevde relasjonen mellom akademisk forskning og religiøs innovasjon på 1960- og 1970-tallet, og dens utvikling i påfølgende tiår.

I mitt arbeid streber jeg etter å integrere empirisk forskning og teoretisk analyse, og trekker på klassiske debatter i religionens studier, som emic-etic-distinksjonen, og undersøker fremvoksende emner, som utopiske fantasier. Jeg utforsker også innovative tilnærminger gjennom filosofisk forskning, spesielt konseptet kollektiv intensjonalitet.
