Project description:
”Clear Message: Christian dialogics of morality in the Faroe Islands” studies the use of different forms of media in City Church, and Evangelical free church in Tórshavn, the Faroe Islands. Having recently undergone many changes, the church today has moved away from more traditional forms of religious and media practices towards what they perceive to be a more “open” and “real” relationship with the surrounding society. Taking on an analytical view of dialogue as the way in which these changes stand in relation to other churches and society at large, the study will show how different media ideologies are continuously re-imagined in dialogue between different actors. These media ideologies will then be expanded to show how they come to occupy a particular "voice" in the broader moral discourse of the Faroe Islands.
