History and profile[]
Arbetet was first published in Malmö on 6 August 1887.[1][2] Axel Danielsson was the founder[3] and served as the editor-in-chief between 1887 and 1889.[1] The paper had a social democrat leaning[1][4] and was officially affiliated with the Social Democratic Party.[5][6]
The target audience of Arbetet was not only Malmö workers but also economically middle-class.[7] Bengt Lidforss was among the contributors of Arbetet.[8] He published articles about natural sciences and political, philosophical and literary issues.[9]
