Samfundet Nordens Frihet (Swedish for the Society for Liberty in the Nordic countries) was a Swedish association founded in 1939 to promote independence for the Nordic countries during the Second World War. The association was dissolved in 1946. Initially it was closely linked to the “Finlandskommittén” (Finland Committee), which worked to assist Finland with volunteer military forces. After the German occupation of Norway and Denmark in 1940, the society considered that Sweden should join the war. Politically, the society was against Nazism and Communism. At most it had 250 members, among them many prominent cultural figures. Almost 50% of the members were academics in the field of History. “The core group consisted of members of the senior seminar on history at Stockholm University.” 〔Johansson 1973, sid 205〕 Society membership was applied by election, Sigurd Curman was the first president and Harald Wigforss was editor of the society’s journal. Other leading members of the society included the Stockholm Municipal Commissioner Yngve Larsson, Nils Ahnlund, Harald Hjärne, Eli Heckscher, Karl-Gustaf Hildebrand, Nils Herlitz, Stig Jägerskiöld, K.G. Westman, Adolf Schück, Birger Steckzén and Andreas Lindblom. Larsson, Ahnlund and Lindbom were members of the board throughout the society’s existence.〔Byström 2005, p. 147〕 The board members Gustaf Aulén, Yngve Larsson, Knut Petersson, and Henning Throne-Holst received the The Royal Norwegian Order of St. Olav. ==See also== *Sweden and the Winter War 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Samfundet Nordens Frihet」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
