- Abstract
- This text aims to study the processes that took place between the Church of Sweden and the state between the years 1995-2000, when the Church of Sweden’s parishes continued to be responsible for maintaining cemeteries.

The understanding of religious freedom between those who are positive and those who are negative to the proposal differentiates. The remaining relationship between the state and the Church of Sweden is different than between the state and other religious organisations. The relational change meant that the Church of Sweden has gained an indisputable place in society regardless of society's development. It risks reproducing a hierarchy in which members of the Church of Sweden are invited to influence in the general and non-members in the particular. (Less)
