Sumari:Norwegian society can be described as five million rational egoists who exchange with one another in the market. This takes place under the surveillance of a bureaucratic state, supported by an extensive apparatus of coercion. But such a society would be “a sociological monstrosity,” says Émile Durkheim, one of sociology’s classics. Norwegian society is also “something more,” namely a community. This is clearly evident in today’s public debate. Not only is the community “threatened” by challenges such as increasing social inequality, an aging population, and environmental problems—“more community” is also the solution to most of these challenges. But what is this community? This book explores community in Norway. What characterizes the community in Norwegian society? Does society as a whole constitute a community, or is it made up of several smaller communities? It also investigates which factors weaken community, what helps strengthen it, and what conflicts exist within and between different communities. Such questions cannot be answered once and for all. Our ambition is that this book will contribute to increased knowledge about an important and timely topic through empirical and theoretical sociological analyses of how we “do” community at different levels and arenas in Norwegian society. The book is aimed at everyone who wants to deepen their understanding of community in Norway—such as researchers, decision-makers, students, and members of the general public.
