Per Albin Hansson (28 October 1885 – 6 October 1946) was a Swedish statesman who served twice as Prime Minister of Sweden from 1932 until his death in 1946. He was leader of the Swedish Social Democratic Party (SAP) from 1925 and a member of the Riksdag’s lower house for Stockholm from 1918 to 1946. He introduced the concept of Folkhemmet (lit."the People’s Home") in 1928, a political vision that defined the Swedish welfare state. Widely considered one of the fathers of modern Sweden, Hansson led the country through the Great Depression and the Second World War.
Built on ideas of social security, egalitarianism, and social inclusion, he promoted reforms aimed at improving living standards, expanding public services, and developing the social safety net. His governments oversaw major initiatives in housing, employment policy, defence planning, and social insurance, transforming the Social Democratic Party into Sweden’s dominant political force.
