HOME SITE HELP ABOUT SEARCH ... EDUCATIONAL Alva Myrdal was born in Uppsala in 1902, graduated from University in 1924, and married Gunnar Myrdal the same year. Together with her husband she made a major contribution in the 1930s to the work of promoting social welfare. They were joint authors of a book entitled "The population problem in crisis", and she was also actively engaged in the discussion on housing and school problems. She was a prominent member of the Social Democrat Party in Sweden, and in 1943 was appointed to that party's committee with the task of drafting a post-war programme. Also in that year she was appointed to the Government Commission on International Post-War Aid and Reconstruction. After the second world war she devoted more and more of her time and energy to international questions. In 1949 - 1950 she headed UNO's section dealing with welfare policy, and in 1950 - 1955 she was chairman of UNESCO's social science section. In 1955 she was appointed Swedish ambassador to India, and in 1962 was nominated Sweden's representative to the Geneva disarmament conference. In that year she became a member of Parliament and in 1967 a member of the Cabinet, entrusted with the special task of promoting disarmament. For a number of years she has represented her country in UNO's political committee, in which questions of disarmament have been dealt with. During the negotiations in Geneva she played an extremely active role, emerging as the leader of the group of non-aligned nations which endeavoured to bring pressure to bear on the two super powers to show greater concern for concrete disarmament measures. Her experiences from the years spent in Geneva found an outlet in her book "The game of disarmament", in which she expresses her disappointment at the reluctance of the USA and the USSR to disarm.

Projekt Runeberg ), född 31 januari 1902 i Uppsala , död 1 februari 1986 . Fick Nobels fredspris år 1982 . Hon har spelat en viktig roll för tillkomsten av barntillsyn i [kommunal regi] dagis Alva Myrdal visade i sina skriverier ingen speciell hänsyn för den traditionella familjen och många utgår därför ifrån att hon inte ansåg att denna skulle särbehandlas eller hade något egenvärde, och därför såg en framtid där den ersattes av en familjeform där bägge föräldrarna skulle arbeta, istället för att barnens mamma (ofta i form av sk hemmafruar ) skulle ta hand om barnen, vilket dittills varit det vanligaste. Hon ansåg också att det bästa vore om barnen uppfostrades kollektivt. Detta gjorde henne mycket impopulär i konservativa kretsar. På 30-talet förespråkade makarna Alva och Gunnar Myrdal i sin bok Kris i befolkningsfrågan rashygieniska åtgärder i syfte att förbättra "människomaterialet". Makarna Myrdal delar i boken in medborgarna i "toppvärdiga" och "icke toppvärdiga" individer. Syftet med åtgärderna skulle vara att "utrota all slags fysisk och psykisk mindervärdighet inom befolkningen". Deras strävanden resulterade i tvångssterilisering av zigenare tattare och andra som ansågs vara mindervärdiga.
