| Summary: | This paper provides a historical overview of the development of Protestantism in the Scandinavian countries up to the 19th century. Like the rest of Europe, the Reformation reached Scandinavia in the 16th century. It differs from other regions that have embraced Protestantism in that the new religious movement was imbued with a national identity and integrated into the highest levels of state power. The Church played a central role in the life of the citizens, not only as a religious and socio-cultural but also as a political institution. The established Lutheran state churches became the centre of the social life and, as a religious-political force, have been actively involved in the governance of the state (co-legislative and executive power, control of state education, administrative role of dioceses and parishes) until the 21st century. Prispevek prinaša zgodovinski pregled razvoja protestantizma v skandinavskih državah do 19. stoletja. Tako kot preostalo Evropo je v 16. stoletju tudi Skandinavijo dosegla reformacija. Ta se od drugih regij, ki so sprejele protestantizem, razlikuje po tem, da je bilo novo versko gibanje prežeto z nacionalno identiteto in vključeno v najvišje ravni državne oblasti. Cerkev je imela osrednjo vlogo v življenju državljanov, ne le kot verska in družbenokulturna, temveč tudi kot politična institucija. Ustanovljene luteranske državne Cerkve so postale središče družbenega življenja in so kot versko-politična sila aktivno vključene v vodenje države (sonosilke zakonodajne in izvršilne oblasti, nadzor šolstva, upravna vloga škofij in župnij) vse do 21. stoletja. |
