I’m Magnus Lundberg, Professor of Church and Mission History in the Department of Theology at Uppsala University, Sweden. Through the years, much of my research has focused on colonial Latin American church history. Still, from 2015 onwards, I have devoted much time to the study of Catholic traditionalism, Fringe Catholicism, and New Religious Movements with Catholic roots, especially modern alternative popes (“antipopes”).

On this website, I publish research papers and drafts on topics that interest me. Most articles are in English, but some are in Spanish or my mother tongue, Swedish. Some have been published elsewhere (as books or articles), but they are now available open-access here. Some texts are written exclusively for this site.
