The Samflligheten fr Nordisk Sed which was formally founded in 1997 does not recognize other religions or collaborate with other modern Pagan organisations, new religious movements influenced by or derived from the various historical pagan beliefs.
Begun in 1996 as "a network of independent kindreds", it was formally founded in 1997. The organisation is closed to outsiders and does not collaborate with other religious groups. It does not recognise other modern Pagan organisations in Sweden as genuine, and rejects attempts to place it within a larger religious milieu. Modern Paganism, also known as Contemporary Paganism and Neopaganism, is a collective term for new religious movements influenced by or derived from the various historical pagan beliefs of pre-modern peoples.
