An article on Swedish Jewish country houses has been published in Scandinavian Jewish Studies/Nordisk judaistik by affiliated researcher Mia Kuritzén Löwengart, (Lund) co-authored with Göran Ulväng (Uppsala). 

The article marks a new approach within the field of Jewish studies by presenting the results of the first systematic and quantitative historical study in Sweden. It indicates that a plurality of Jewish identities was represented among the owners of country houses, and that social and economic assets possibly had a greater impact on Jewish country house acquisitions than did the regulations which were installed to prevent them.
