Håkan Blomqvist, born in 1951, Stockholm, is a doctor of philosophy in history, specialised on the labour movement, socialism, racism and anti-Semitism. The development in Soviet-Union and Russia is one aspect of his interest. He has written several books and articles on the issues (see list of publication) and is an experienced lecturer on these fields and on contemporary history in general.
Starting late in life with academic career, Blomqvist has a background as a worker, journalist/editor and lecturer in labour adult education.
