Abstract | This article examines the conspiracy narratives based in anthroposophy that emerged during the coronavirus pandemic. These are viewed against the background of the general coronavirus conspiracies that were generated during the crisis and circulated globally, including in Norway. The article discusses the concept of conspiracy theories and references recent research in the field, particularly conspiracy thinking related to the coronavirus pandemic. It also provides examples of corona conspiracies that were disseminated by individuals associated with the anthroposophical movement. The article then considers the recent division and polarization in the anthroposophical movement, as well as the friction between anthroposophy and Waldorf pedagogy. It concludes with a reflection on the findings and the question of anthroposophy as a subculture versus counterculture. |
