Stormklockan (Swedish: The storm clock) was a political youth magazine published in Stockholm, Sweden, between 1908 and 1985.

History and profile

Stormklockan was launched in December 1908 in Stockholm.^[1] Zeth Höglund was instrumental in the establishment of the magazine which was started as a weekly social democratic publication.^[1] Soon after its start the magazine was made the official media outlet of the Social Democratic Youth.^[1] Höglund served as its editor-in-chief.^[2] One of the contributors in this period was Allan Wallenius, a Swede from Turku.^[3]

Over time the magazine left its original ideology and adopted a socialist stance.^[1] During its existence it was published by different groups, including Social Democratic Youth, Young Left, Marxist–Leninist Struggle League and Red Youth.^[4] In 1917 Stormklockan was seized several times due to its close alliance with the Social Democratic Party.^[5] The magazine folded in 1985.^[4]
