Nordic Fascism Nordic Fascism Investigating the Political Project Behind Bollhusmötet Master’s thesis (45 credits) Author’s name: Erik Blohmé Name of supervisor: Heléne Lööw Semester: Spring 2021 Date of Submission: May 17, 2021 HISTORISKA INSTITUTIONEN Abstract This thesis investigates the political project behind the infamous tennis hall meeting, commonly referred to as Bollhusmötet, that took place in February of 1939 in Uppsala, Sweden. Gathering in the local tennis hall, the members of the Uppsala Student Union decided to send a resolution to the Swedish king protesting the reception of Jewish refugees into Sweden in the wake of the 1938 November Pogrom. The protest was widely influential, spurring similar resolutions at other universities and arguably influencing Swedish refugee policy on a national level. The event itself was orchestrated by a group of nationalist students as part of a political project aiming to establish a Nordic power bloc with Sweden as the central power. This political milieu rejected the geopolitics of both England and Germany to promote a specific form of Nordic fascism. Antisemitism was a central part of their ideology, both regarding short- and long-term goals, and antisemitism was also the ultimate motive behind the tennis hall meeting. The architects of these events joined the mainstream conservative milieu in 1940 as part of a strategy to abolish the Swedish political system from within and restructure the Swedish state according to a fascist model bearing many similarities to national socialism.

  • Att Riva Det Borgerliga Horhuset Folkbildning För Folkets Och Nationens Historia
    Att riva det borgerliga horhuset Folkbildning för folkets och nationens historia SAMUEL EDQUIST Olika vänsterrörelser har alltid ägnat sig åt studier av olika slag, och inte minst var så fallet runt 1968 och dess efterdyningar. Temana kunde vara marxistisk teori, politisk taktik eller att ana- lysera samhället på olika sätt.1 Inte sällan handlade det också om historiska studier. Det skedde bland annat genom bred folkbild- ningsverksamhet – som kulminerade med Gräv där du står-rör- elsen – liksom genom partihistoria, skönlitteratur, musik, teater och mycket annat.2 En ny generation rekryterades från dessa rör- elser till universiteten, där de inledde karriärer som marxistiska historieforskare. Historien var viktig för vänsterrörelsernas självförståelse. Att uttolka Sovjetunionens och Kinas historia, olika partisprängningar eller vad Marx, Engels och Lenin egentligen menat skapade både identifikation och avgränsning mot konkurrerande rörelser. His- torien var samtidigt vägvisaren mot en hägrande, socialistisk fram- tid. Det var då naturligt att lägga stor vikt vid att utforska hur väg- en framåt såg ut. Det förflutna var också ett ideologiskt slagfält och kamp- medel. Till att börja med påtalades ibland att försvararna av den rådande samhällsordningen ville framställa den som tidlös och 1 Kjell Östberg, 1968 – när allting var i rörelse (Stockholm: Prisma, 2002), s. 139, 145f., 161f. och 171f.; Alexander Ekelund, Kampen om vetenskapen.

  • The Evolution of Swedish Fascism: Self-Identity and Ideology in Interwar Sweden
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Apollo The Evolution of Swedish Fascism: Self-identity and Ideology in Interwar Sweden The Version of Record of this manuscript has been published and is available Patterns of Prejudice, Nov. 2016, http://www.tandfonline.com/, http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/0031322X.2016.1237386 Abstract Historians and social scientists generally understand nationalism to be the defining feature of fascism. This study challenges that assumption with the examination of Swedish fascist movements through the concept of self-identity. Based on interwar fascist periodicals, the development of Swedish fascists‘ self-identity in relation to race, nation, and the signifiers of ‗fascism‘ and ‗National Socialism‘, is traced from the early 1920s when an overt attachment to Mussolini‘s model was displayed, through a National Socialist phase showing a cautious commitment to Nazi Germany, ending with a final phase of ‗anonymisation‘. In the face of criticism that their ideology was alien to Sweden, fascists adapted their self-representation to accommodate nationalist commitments, developing a transnational racialist ideology believed to be more in tune with Swedish political culture. When public opinion turned decisively against ‗international fascism‘ in the mid-1930s, they were forced to discard the name and image of ‗fascism‘ altogether, in a final phase of anonymisation, which however did not entail any significant ideological metamorphosis. Keywords Sweden, fascism, racialism, national socialism, Nazism, discourse, identity, ideology Below I will consider fascist self-identity in Sweden, what I argue is its awkward relationship to nationalism, and how that relationship drove ideological change.

  • “The Elephant in the Room Usually Centres Around Israel”
    “The elephant in the room usually centres around Israel” A thematic analysis of how institutional and organisational actors understand and approach antisemitism in general and among Muslims in Sweden Master’s Programme in Social Work and Human Rights Degree Report: 30 higher education credits Autumn 2018 Author: Annemarie Ammer Supervisor: Ulf Borelius Abstract Working Title: “The elephant in the room usually centres around Israel” A thematic analysis of how institutional and organisational actors understand and approach antisemitism in general and among Muslims in Sweden Keywords: Thematic analysis, antisemitism, antisemitism among Muslims, organisational work The Master’s thesis deals with the topic of antisemitism in Sweden and, as an aspect of that, focuses on antisemitic attitudes among Muslims. Antisemitism, the hostility towards Jews, has changed its forms of manifestation throughout history, but persists to the current day. In Sweden, research on antisemitism remains limited, especially with focus on antisemitic attitudes among Muslims. This study seeks to contribute to a more detailed understanding of antisemitism in Sweden. The aim of the study was to describe and analyse how different institutional and organisational actors approach the topic of antisemitism and how they represent strategies to deal with antisemitism in general and/or among Muslims (specifically or in line with other forms of discrimination). Thereby, a social constructionist perspective was applied throughout the research. The interview material consists of eight semi-structured interviews with representatives of seven different organisations and projects, with the following research questions: How do the organisations construct antisemitism? How do the organisations represent their work and strategies to tackle antisemitism among Muslims? What discourses do the organisations draw on to construct the basis for their work? To answer these questions, a semi-structured interview guide served as framework for conducting the interviews.

This comprehensive report is one of the outcomes of that initiative. It represents the first time in the EU that data on antisemitism has been collected systematically, using common guidelines for each Member State. The national reports delivered by the RAXEN network provide an overview of incidents of antisemitism, the political, academic and media reactions to it, information from public opinion polls and attitude surveys, and examples of good practice to combat antisemitism, from information available in the years 2002 – 2003. On receipt of these national reports, the EUMC then asked an independent scholar, Dr Alexander Pollak, to make an evaluation of the quality and availability of this data on antisemitism in each country, and identify problem areas and gaps. The country-by-country information provided by the 15 National Focal Points, and the analysis by Dr Pollak, form Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 of this report respectively.

  • Talking About a Revolution: Or Why (Most Of) the West Did Not Extend the Franchise
    Talking About a Revolution: Or Why (Most of) the West Did Not Extend the Franchise David Art Department of Political Science, Tufts University Medford MA [email protected] 617-627-5756 Paper prepared for the 2012 APSA Conference, September 1, New Orleans Introduction Did the threat of revolution force elites in the West to extend the franchise? A number of economists and political scientists believe that it did (Acemoglu and Robinson 2000: Acemoglu and Robinson 2006; Aidt and Jensen 2011; Conley and Temimi 2001; Przeworski 2008). For economists, the credible threat of violence provides a compelling solution to the puzzle of why the rich would ever peacefully agree to increases in taxation and redistribution that follow from suffrage extension (Meltzer and Richard 1981). For political scientists, works such as Boix’s (2003) framing of democratization as a high-stakes game between social classes echoes Dahl’s (1971) classic formulation of democratization as the result of the costs of suppression exceeding the costs of toleration. One could of course trace the basic idea back further: Marx, Machiavelli, and Aristotle all recognized that leaders were unwilling to make democratic concessions without the serious threat of revolt. The prima facie plausibility of the “threat of revolution” hypothesis also renders it an appealing explanation for other types of political outcomes, such as the creation of social insurance (Kim 2007). Support for the “threat of revolution” hypothesis has thus far come primarily in quantitative form. Przeworski (2008) uses Banks’ data on riots and strikes and his own dataset on suffrage extensions, though the fact that Banks’ data begins after WWI means that he is forced to exclude most cases of franchise extension in Europe from his analysis.

  • Conservative Parties and the Birth of Democracy
    Conservative Parties and the Birth of Democracy How do democracies form and what makes them die? Daniel Ziblatt revisits this timely and classic question in a wide-ranging historical narrative that traces the evolution of modern political democracy in Europe from its modest beginnings in 1830s Britain to Adolf Hitler’s 1933 seizure of power in Weimar Germany. Based on rich historical and quantitative evidence, the book offers a major reinterpretation of European history and the question of how stable political democracy is achieved. The barriers to inclusive political rule, Ziblatt finds, were not inevitably overcome by unstoppable tides of socioeconomic change, a simple triumph of a growing middle class, or even by working class collective action. Instead, political democracy’s fate surprisingly hinged on how conservative political parties – the historical defenders of power, wealth, and privilege – recast themselves and coped with the rise of their own radical right. With striking modern parallels, the book has vital implications for today’s new and old democracies under siege. Daniel Ziblatt is Professor of Government at Harvard University where he is also a resident fellow of the Minda de Gunzburg Center for European Studies. He is also currently Fernand Braudel Senior Fellow at the European University Institute. His first book, Structuring the State: The Formation of Italy and Germany and the Puzzle of Federalism (2006) received several prizes from the American Political Science Association. He has written extensively on the emergence of democracy in European political history, publishing in journals such as American Political Science Review, Journal of Economic History, and World Politics.

    fascism 8 (2019) 9-35 brill.com/fasc The Fascist Who Fought for World Peace: Conversions and Core Concepts in the Ideology of the Swedish Nazi Leader Sven Olov Lindholm Johan Stenfeldt Dept of History, Lund University, Sweden [email protected] Abstract This article deals with the political conversion and ideological thought of the Swedish National Socialist Sven Olov Lindholm (1903–1998). Lindholm began his career as a fas- cist in the twenties, and became a member of Sweden’s main National Socialist party led by Birger Furugård, in the early thirties. Ideological divisions and a failed attempt to oust Furugård saw Lindholm found his own party in January 1933, the nsap (later renamed the sss). Previous research has often described this party as a left-wing Nazi alternative, but its ideological basis has never been thoroughly dissected. The present article uses a variety of archival collections, speeches, pamphlets, and newspaper ar- ticles to suggest a cluster of six interdependent core concepts in Sven Olov Lindholm’s ideological thought: anti-Semitism, anti-capitalism, anti-imperialism, anti-material- ism, the idealization of the worker, and the definition of Nazi Germany as a worker’s state. Lindholm underwent a second political awakening in the sixties, redefining him- self as a communist, and thus the article also examines the ideological remains there- after. It is found that anti-materialism, linked to a broad antipathy to modernity, was central throughout his career.

  • Indras Dotter – Född Ur En Rysk Dröm1 Om Strindbergs Skuld Till Tjernysjevskij Av Mariusz Kalinowski
    Indras Dotter – född ur en rysk dröm1 Om Strindbergs skuld till Tjernysjevskij Av Mariusz Kalinowski Sanningen är alltid oförsynt. (A. Strindberg, Mäster Olof, 1872) Tar jag något sceneri och rekvisita, kanske en scen ur en tarvlig, tämligen okänd historisk roman, så är dramat fortfarande mitt, ty romanförfattarens arbete var icke konstnärligt utarbetat. Men tar jag till exempel Ivanhoe och Rebecka utan att nämna Walter Scotts namn, då är jag inne på andras jaktmark. (A. Strindberg, Ur-tjuva, 1910) År 2008 presenterade jag i Gdańsk texten Fröken Julie – designed in Russia!2, där jag visar att den centrala scenen i Strindbergs drama (navet i dess omtalade ”fina symmetri”), namnen Julie och Jean samt huvuddragen i fröken Julies gestalt är lånade från den ryske författaren Nikolaj Tjernysjevskijs roman Vad bör göras?. Fröken Julie visar sig ha en rysk förlaga: en demimond från Petersburg. Då jag skrev texten trodde jag mig vara ensam om att ha uppmärksammat Tjernysjevskijs betydelse för Strindbergs dramatik. Nu kan jag modifiera uppfattningen i fråga. År 1975 skrev den ryske forskaren Sjarypkin: ”Porträtten av »gamla människor« i romanen Vad bör göras? har i viss mån blivit till litterära prototyper för hjältarna i Strindbergs »naturalistiska« dramer. Personagerna i Fröken Julie (1888), Julie själv och hennes älskare Jean, har inte bara getts samma namn som »de gamla människorna« hos Tjernysjevskij – Jean Solovtsov och fransyskan Julie – utan också liknande karaktärsdrag och liknande syn på livet; de har samma intressen och uppvisar 1 samma stereotypa beteenden.” Osv. Likheterna, skriver Sjarypkin, är ”knappast slumpartade”.3 Tjernysjevskijs inflytande på Strindberg slutar dock inte i och med svenskens ”naturalistiska” period.

  • Metapedia and the Internationalization of Swedish Generic Fascism
    fascism 4 (2015) 194-208 brill.com/fasc Ikea Fascism: Metapedia and the Internationalization of Swedish Generic Fascism Henrik Arnstad Science journalist, specializing in modern history [email protected] Abstract Today’s European movements active within the spectrum of generic fascism have become sophisticated at internationalizing their ideology. This is illustrated in the present article through a study of the Swedish pan-European web encyclopaedia Metapedia, a fascist equivalent of the mainstream Wikipedia, working in the fields of metapolitics and gramscisme de Droite. The article argues that contemporary interna- tionalization goes hand-in-hand with the historical traditions of Swedish fascism since the 1940s and 1950s, and indeed can be interpreted as a part of Swedish national iden- tity. As such, the idea of Metapedia as ‘Ikea Fascism’ is not as far-fetched as it would seem, since there is a link between the founder of the multinational Swedish furniture company and the internationalization of Swedish fascism. Keywords Metapedia – metapolitics – gramscisme de droite – neo-fascism – internet – internationalization – Sweden In January 2009 the Swedish Justitiekanslern [Chancellor of Justice] inves- tigated the allegedly Nazi web encyclopaedia Metapedia,1 following allega- tions of criminal racial agitation in the article about Adolf Hitler.
