Thorvald Stauning var Danmarks første socialdemokratiske statsminister.

Han gjorde tjeneste mellem 1924 og 1926 og derefter igen i 1929, indtil han døde i 1942.

Det var under hans ledelse, at Danmark blev en social velfærdsstat, og selv om mange af hans initiativer ikke skete i hans levetid på grund af nogle ting, der var ude af hans kontrol, anses han for at være en af Danmarks mest beundrede mænd i det 20. århundrede, fordi han ledte nationen i gennem nogle af dens mest urolige år.

Noget tyder på, at det var hans lederskab, som standsede de fascistiske og kommunistiske bevægelser, som stoppede Europa, i at få et stærkt fodfæste i Danmark.

Stauning startede med at arbejde som cigarproducent og blev snart involveret med fagforeningerne.

Mellem 1896 og 1908 ledte han Cigarsorterernes Fagforening.

Mellem 1898 og 1904 redigerede han også Samarbejdet, De Samvirkende Fagforbunds magasin.

Han blev valgt til folketinget i 1906 og blev Socialdemokratiets formand i 1910.

Han beholdt denne stilling i næsten tre årtier.

Han blev statsminister i 1924, og hans ministerråd ses som et større gennembrud i Danmarks historie, fordi det var det første ministerråd, der var helt socialdemokratisk.

Det var også det første ministerråd, hvor en kvinde modtog en stillingen som undervisningsminister.

På tidspunktet var Nina Bang også en af de få kvindelige ministre i hele verden.

Ud over at sætte nye rekorder med hans ministerråd, satte Stauning også en anden rekord, da han med held søgte genvalg tre gange – mere end nogen anden dansk politiker.

----Formal English----

Thorvald Stauning was Denmark’s first social democratic prime minister.

He served between 1924 and 1926 and then again in 1929 until he died in 1942.

It was under his leadership that Denmark became a social welfare state, and although many of his initiatives did not happen in his lifetime because of things that were out of his control, he is considered to be one of Denmark’s most admired 20th century statesmen because he led the nation through some of its most troubled years.

Some suggest that it was his leadership and coalition cabinet which kept the fascist and communist movements which swept Europe from getting a strong foothold in Denmark.

Stauning started out working as a cigar sorter and soon became involved with trade unions.

Between 1896 and 1908 he led the Cigar Sorters’ Union.

Between 1898 and 1904 he also edited Samarbejdet, a magazine for the Federation of Trade Unions.

He was elected to Parliament in 1906 and became the Social Democratic Party chairman in 1910.

He retained that position for almost three decades.

He became prime minister in 1924, and his minority cabinet, the Cabinet of Thorvald Stauning I, is seen as a major breakthrough cabinet in Denmark’s history because it was the first cabinet that was entirely Social Democrat.

It was also the first cabinet in which a woman received the position of Minister of Education.

At that time Nina Bang was also one of the few female ministers in the entire world.

In addition to setting new records in his cabinet, Stauning also set another record because he successfully sought re-election three times—more than any other Danish politician.
