Nöjesförbud, stängda restauranger och ödesmättade radiosymfonier på långfredagen hörde påsken till fram till 1970-talet. Gamla seder kan få det att rycka i smilbanden – men vad är det egentligen som får oss att slopa vissa traditioner och lägga till nya? Etnologen Karin Gustavsson förklarar. Barn uppväxta innan och under 1960-talet i Sverige brukar beskriva hur plågsamt långsamt långfredagen släpa
