Contemporary research on Sweden´s relationship to Communism and Nazism

Jesper Wadensjö Communications Department
Schwedischer Forschungsrat - The Swedish Research Council

    The Swedish Research Council´s final report on research from two research programmes: "Communist Regimes" and "Sweden´s Relationship to Nazism, Nazi Germany, and the Holocaust". Are now published in English. The findings help clarify Sweden´s relationship to communism and Nazism from the 1930s to the present.

    The Programme was intended to satisfy both the Government's interest in knowledge and the research community's requirements of academic relevance and wish for a broader basis for research on this theme. Research in this Programme is still under way.

    In a report of this kind, there may also be reason to consider other research in progress that is linked to this Programme in various ways but is still unfinished. The task of compiling and describing this material was carried out by Associate Processor Jan Larsson at the Swedish Research Council.

    In total, 29 million Swedish kronor were allocated to 15 research projects that have been under way since 2001 under the auspices of the Swedish Research Council.

    The report "Communist Regimes" are accessible att www.vr.se: http://www.vr.se/mainmenu/pressandnews/newsarchive/news/5.29d0561210d2b2d3e02800...
