Depuis une quinzaine d’année, le projet Eurel (Sociological and legal data on religions in Europe and beyond) s’attache à comparer le phénomène religieux parmi les différents pays européens, dans ses aspects juridiques et sociologiques surtout. Il réunit régulièrement son réseau de correspondants et organise, depuis peu, des conférences internationales ouvertes aux chercheurs autres que ceux affiliés à son réseau. Le dernier colloque d’Eurel s’est ainsi déroulé, les 26 et 27 septembre derniers, à Oslo, et portait sur le « formatage de la non-religion dans la société post-moderne », dans ses perspectives institutionnelles et légales. Il était co-organisé par Eurel et le projet Good Protestant, Bad Religion? Formatting Religion in Modern Society (GOBA) de l’Université d’Oslo.

Finland

According to Eurostat (2011), Finland is culturally, ethnically and religiously one of the most homogeneous countries in Europe. This is reflected in its religious landscape: although particularly because of Muslim immigrants and refugees, religious diversity has increased since the 1990’s, the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland remains the biggest religious denomination. Nearly three quarters of the Finnish population is a member of the Lutheran Church. Other religious groups cover a bit less than 3 % altogether. The remaining part of the population – more than 20 % – is unaffiliated. Some are atheists or religiously indifferent, whereas there are also people who consider themselves religious or spiritual but are not members of any registered religious community. The most significant change is a decrease in membership of the dominant Church, partly because one can easily resign via a website and partly because the Church is considered conservative on issues relating to same-sex marriage. Membership has gone down from more than 90 % in 1980 to 88 % in 1990, 85 % in 2000, 78 % in 2010 and 73.7 % in 2014.
