[Tex/LaTex] Start only some chapters on right-hand side after a set page/chapter

chaptersdouble-sidedpage-breakingsectioning

I'm working on my masters thesis, and have a fairly decent structure (I feel..), but I have one issue. I want my chapters to start on the right-hand side, which in itself is not hard to do. However, I've characterized my abstracts(2 of them, an english and a norwegian version) and acknowledgements as chapters, and also the /listoffigures and /listoftables are affected by this right-hand rule in the command: \documentclass[twoside,openright,11pt,a4paper]{report}
So, my question is: Is there a way to start the right-hand chapters after a set page, or after a set chapter?

The implementation I use on my .tex file is this:

    \documentclass[twoside,openright,11pt,a4paper]{report}

\usepackage{Chapters/myStyle}
\pagestyle{fancy}

\fancyhead[LE]{\thepage}
\fancyhead[RE]{\leftmark}
\fancyhead[LO]{}
\fancyhead[RO]{\thepage}
%\fancyfoot[LO[{}
\cfoot{}

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Best Answer

A solution can be to redefine \cleardoublepage to be \clearpage locally to those chapters when you don't want that behavior.

So just write

{\let\cleardoublepage\clearpage%
\input{Chapters/Abstract}
\input{Chapters/Abstrakt}
\input{Chapters/Acknowledgements}

\tableofcontents 
\listoftables
\listoffigures
}

and you should obtain what you want.
