Ny Dag

Ny Dag

Ny Dag ('New Day') was a Swedish communist newspaper. It became the main organ of the Communist Party of Sweden (later renamed 'Left Party - Communists', VPK) on January 2, 1930.[1]

Ny Dag was one of six newspapers that was subject to a 'transport ban' during the Second World War.[2] The 'transport ban', based on a law in place between 1940 and 1944, meant amongst other things that the newspaper could not be transported through the postal services, railways or other forms of public transport.[2]

As of 1945, Ny Dag had around 29,700 subscribers.[3] About ten local editions of Ny Dag were launched during the 1940s. All were closed down during the 1950s.[4]

After the meagre election result for the Communist Party in the 1962 municipal elections (in which the party obtained 3.8% of the nation-wide vote), a lengthy, and for a Communist Party publication remarkably harsh, debate erupted in the pages Ny Dag, in which critics held the party leadership personally accountable for the electoral defeat.[5]

Ny Dag became a twice-weekly newspaper in 1965.[6] As of 1970, it had a circulation of around 15,000.[6] Ny Dag was printed at Västermalms Tryckeri AB, on Kungsholmen in Stockholm.[3]

Editors

Hugo Sillén edited Ny Dag between 1931 and 1934.[7] Around 1940, Gustav Johansson was the editor of the newspaper.[3]

Hilding Hagberg, also the party chairman, was the political editor of Ny Dag 1943 to 1964,[8] whilst C.-H. Hermansson served as the editor of the newspaper 1959 to 1964.[9] As of the late 1970s, ­Ingemar ­Andersson was editor-in-chief of the newspaper.[10]
