Shipping from Europe with tracking number Karl Stoff (January 21, 1860 – October 4, 1915) – Swedish liberal politician and lawyer. The Prime Minister of Sweden in 1905-1906 and 1911-1914 [6] .He was a prominent supporter of the idea of universal suffrage and tried to introduce it for men (his successor Nils Eden extended it to women). He entered into an acute conflict with conservatives who were pro-monarchist and anti-democratic. A hatred campaign was conducted against Stoff, he was portrayed as a destroyer of Swedish traditions. When the conservatives staged a demonstration of farmers at the royal residence and King Gustav V , who was legally supposed to be out of politics, condemned the defense strategy of anti-militarist Stoff, who did not want to spend too much money on the national army, the latter resigned in protest.Very much appreciated by the Swedish liberals and placed on a par with Nils Eden, Karl Ekman, Bertil Olin , Gunnar Helen, Per Almark and Bengt Westerberg.Sweden, following its long-standing policy of neutrality since the Napoleonic Wars, remained neutral throughout World War I between 28 July 1914 and 11 November 1918.[1] However, this neutrality was not maintained without difficulty and Sweden at various times sympathised with different parties in the conflict.[2]Despite strong pro-German sentiment both in the Swedish nobility and in Swedish political circles,[3] Sweden did not enter the war on the German side in 1914–15. Instead Sweden retained armed neutrality[4] and continued to trade with both the Entente Powers and the Central Powers. Swedish trade with Germany, particularly in iron ore, eventually lead to exports of food to Sweden being greatly reduced, especially after America’s entry into the war in 1917.[5] The resulting food shortages, and public unrest in the form of hunger marches and riots, caused the downfall of Sweden’s conservative government[6] which was replaced eventually by a social-democrat one, bringing about an era of political reform in Sweden.[7]Sweden did intervene militarily in the Åland islands after the collapse of Russia into civil war and the advent of Finnish independence in 1918, briefly occupying the islands which Sweden had long sought to acquire and which had a large Swedish population that supported Swedish annexation, but which were also claimed by Finland. However Sweden ultimately withdrew following Finnish protests.[8] Significant numbers of Swedes also took part as volunteers in the Finnish civil war, with the 350-strong Swedish brigade playing a role in the decisive battle of Tampere.[9]At the end of the war, Sweden was not a signatory of the Treaty of Versailles, which brought the conflict to a conclusion, but Sweden joined the League of Nations which was formed as a result of the treaty, and thus was bound by its restriction of German rearmament.[10] However, Swedish firms provided assistance to their German counterparts that helped them avoid the restrictions of the treaty.[Karl Albert Staaff (Estocolmo, 21 de enero de 1860 – ibídem, 4 de octubre de 1915) fue un político sueco, dos veces primer ministro de su país.Abogado de profesión, fue jefe del Partido Coalición Liberal entre 1907 y 1915, y ocupó el cargo de primer ministro entre el 7 de noviembre de 1905 y el 29 de mayo de 1906, y por segunda vez entre el 7 de octubre de 1911 y el 17 de febrero de 1914.Estuvo activo en el movimiento sueco por el sufragio universal y como primer ministro por el Partido Liberal, impulsó en 1905 la introducción del sufragio democrático limitado para los hombres. Su sucesor Nils Edén finalmente logró dar un paso más allá y llegar al sufragio universal en 1918.Staaff intervino en un duro conflicto con el establishment sueco conservador, y se convirtió en una figura odiada entre los conservadores, monárquicos y anti-democráticos. Se lanzó una intensa campaña de difamación contra él, pintándolo como el destructor de la tradición y la sociedad suecas: los estocolmeses ricos llegarían hasta comprar bandejas hechas con la forma de su cabeza. Sus políticas acérrimamente antimilitaristas ganeraron la mayor campaña de recolección de fondos en la historia de Suecia hasta ese momento, las 12 millones de coronas para el acorazado costero HMS Sverige, que fueron obtenidas en pocos meses en 1912. Staaff habría de morder el anzuelo, y el acorazado se construyó.En 1914 Staaff renunció al gobierno, en señal de protesta, después de que los conservadores convocaran una manifestación de agricultores frente al castillo de la corte real en Estocolmo, donde el rey Gustavo V -que de acuerdo a la ley debía permanecer ajeno a la política- denunció las políticas de defensa pacifistas de Staaff, en lo que se denominó la “Crisis del Patio”.El actual partido liberal sueco Partido Liberal del Pueblo lo considera como el primero entre los más prominentes líderes del liberalismo sueco durante el Siglo XX, seguido por parlamentarios como Nils Edén, Carl Ekman, el Premio Nobel Bertil Ohlin, Gunnar Helén, Per Ahlmark y Bengt Westerberg.Karl Albert Staaff (* 21. Januar 1860 in Stockholm; † 4. Oktober 1915 ebenda) war ein schwedischer Politiker der Liberala samlingspartiet und zweimal (1905–1906 sowie 1911–1914) Ministerpräsident von Schweden.Karl Albert Staaff war Sohn von Albert Staaff und Mina Schöne. Er studierte an der Universität Uppsala Rechtswissenschaften.Von 1896 bis 1915 war Staaff Reichstagsabgeordneter, von 1907 bis 1915 Vorsitzender der Liberalen Partei. 1905 wurde er als Nachfolger von Christian Lundeberg schwedischer Ministerpräsident, musste das Amt aber bereits im Folgejahr an Arvid Lindman abgeben. Von 1905 bis 1906 nahm Staaff gleichzeitig das Amt des Justizministers wahr.1911 gelang ihm die Ablösung Lindmans im Amt des Ministerpräsidenten. 1914 trat er im Protest gegen die Rüstungspolitik von König Gustav V. zurück (Borggård-Krise). Sein Nachfolger wurde am 17. Februar 1914 der konservative Politiker Hjalmar Hammarskjöld.
