Flamman & Abraxas

Flamman (lit. 'the flame') is a Swedish socialist weekly magazine based in Stockholm. The magazine was founded in 1906 as a daily newspaper aligned with the Social Democrats, and was based in the northern Norrbotten region until 1987. Since the 1990s, Flamman is a weekly independent magazine without attachment to any political parties. The original name of the magazine was Norrskensflamman (lit. 'the flame of northern lights'), which was shortened in 1998.
