''The Laughing Policeman'' (1968), by Sjöwall and Wahlöö, is the fourth police detective novel, in the ten-part Martin Beck series. Originally published in Sweden in 1968 as ''Den skrattande polisen'', it is the first novel in the series to criticize the shortcomings of the Swedish welfare state. In 1971, ''The Laughing Policeman'' earned a 'Best Novel' Edgar Award from the Mystery Writers of America. The American police procedural film, ''The Laughing Policeman'' (1973) featuring Walter Matthau, is a loose adaptation of the novel. == Explanation of the title == The novel's title, ''The Laughing Policeman'', derives from a 1922 song so titled. When Detective Beck receives the record as a Christmas gift from his daughter, Ingrid, he does not think it funny; his first laugh comes when the dead Det. Åke Stenström is vindicated.
