The Swedish stereotype of the Germans is characterised by Bullerbu, IKEA, Lucia customs and Midsummer Night. The reality of a country in which Christians try to assert themselves in a mostly secular context shaped by ideas of equality and in which contradictory legal systems on surrogacy lead to new kinship grammars is largely ignored. The contributions assembled here illuminate the social discourses from a European-ethnological perspective. With overviews of narrative research and current museum discussions, the volume delves into classic topics of Scandinavian subject history. The second focus documents the discussions of the online conference “Negotiating Ambiguities. Tolerance as Social and Cultural Practice) of the European Ethnology and Sociology sections of the Gorres-Society in autumn 2021. Tolerance was evaluated there in different historical, economic, religious, ideological and scientific contexts as a virtue, as an attitude (respect), as a social standard, or as weakness, not least as an instrument of power.
