Descrizione
Riepilogo:Abstract This article starts by giving an overview on religion in contemporary Sweden and a historic background on IRD -organisations and IRD -activities in the country; followed by a more in-depth description of contemporary IRD , presenting both national and local IRD -organisations and IRD -activities. The article ends with an analysis of how IRD -organisations and IRD -activities relate to the sociocultural context in Sweden, which shows the importance of the increase in religious plurality in Sweden and the Church of Sweden’s still dominate position, in the establishment and upholding of IRD -organisations and IRD -activities in the country. Another sociocultural context influencing is the highly secularised Swedish society together with the secular state. This leads both to a delay in establishment of IRD -organizations in Sweden, and later on, for the establishment of these IRD -organizations and for IRD -activities, if the aim of these are less religious and foremost social.
