History and profile

AiP was established by Sven Aspling in 1953 with the title Aktuellt i Politik och Samhälle.[2] It has been a part of AiP Media Produktion AB since 1999, a publishing company owned by the Swedish Social Democratic Party.[3]

Until 1992, AiP published 20 issues per year.[2] Then the frequency was switched to weekly.[2] The paper contains news, reports, analyses and comments.[1] Bo Södersten, an economist, published an article in the magazine in 1988 while serving at the Parliament for the Swedish Social Democratic Party in which he criticized the party due to its centralized structure.[4] It also features film reviews one of which was about Ingmar Bergman's From the Life of the Marionettes.[5]

The editors-in-chief of AiP include Åke Fors, Sven Dahlin, Macke Nilsson, Nils Hillén, Enn Kokk, Håkan Quisth, Peter Hultqvist, Ove Andersson, Eric Sundström, Jan Söderström and Fredrik Kornebäck.[2] Since July 2019, Maria Persson has been the editor-in-chief and publisher of AiP, and Daniel Färm has been its director since 1 January 2021.[6]
