The Anglophone crisis in Cameroon
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2021-10-28)The historiography of the “Anglophone Problem” has drawn a lot of ink from Cameroonian historians, lawyers, politicians, and scholars. This is because an Anglophone in the Cameroonian context is not necessarily a Cameroonian who speaks or writes English, or who is imbibed with the Anglo-Saxon culture. Cameroonians are confronted with who an Anglophone is, what is the Anglophone problem, the origin ... -

The Transitivity Index: Using Transitivity as a Continuous Measure to Account for Clitic Case Alternation in Spanish Causative Constructions.
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-02-25)In Spanish causative constructions with dejar ‘let’ and hacer ‘make’ the subject of the embedded infinitive verb can appear in the accusative or the dative case. This case alternation has been accounted for by resorting to the notion of direct vs. indirect causation. Under this account, the accusative clitic with a transitive verb denotes direct causation while the dative clitic with an intransitive ... -

Immanent og økonomisk trinitet i Jürgen Moltmanns og Catherine Mowry LaCugnas teologi. En analyse av to tolkninger av Karl Rahners «tese»
(Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2021-10-31)Oppgaven undersøker, hvordan Jürgen Moltmanns og Catherine Mowry LaCugnas treenighetslære forholder seg til Karl Rahners tese «Den immanente triniteten er den økonomiske triniteten og omvendt.» Tesen har i det 20. århundre fått mye oppmerksomhet og kan anses som toneangivende for en «renessanse» av treenighetslæren. Rahner har med dette slått fast at Gud, slik vi møter ham i frelseshistorien er den ... -

The Art of Radio Documentary
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-06)For many years, I have been a devoted fan of radio documentaries. Back in the 1980s and 1990s I used to record some of the documentaries on my old Phillips cassette recorder. When digital technology replaced such tapes, I put them in a drawer. To make a radio documentary, you only need a good voice recorder and a talent to connect with people. Listening to a good radio documentary, you get the ... -

Sensitivity to microvariation in bilingual acquisition: Morphophonological gender cues in Russian heritage language
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-09-27)Previous research on the acquisition of grammatical gender has shown that this property is acquired early in transparent gender systems such as Russian. However, it is not clear to what extent children are sensitive to the assignment cues and to what extent they simply memorize correspondences between frequent lexical items. Furthermore, we do not know if bilingual children are different from ... -
Material Methods for a Rapid-Response Anthropology
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-05-13)Sudden crises frustrate anthropological methodologies. Our discipline aspires to engaged scholarship in dialogue with community and public concerns. Yet timely social analysis must address the ephemeral and unpredictable, running against the rhythm of anthropological fieldwork and publication. When social distancing precludes typical ethnographic engagements, how may we adapt anthropological approaches? -

Symbolpolitikk spenner bein for økt sysselsetting av flere flyktninger
(Chronicle; Kronikk, 2020)I Norge har de fleste regjeringer siden starten på 1990-tallet hatt som målsetting at alle skal i arbeid. Denne «arbeidslinja» har vært et kjennetegn ved den norske velferdsmodellen, og grunntanken er at alle skatter, trygder og overføringer skal være utformet slik at det lønner seg å jobbe heller enn å være utenfor arbeidsmarkedet. For norske kvinner har denne politikken blant annet bidratt til ... -

Armstrong discusses ...
