Statsborgeren (Norwegian: The Citizen) was a political magazine which was published in Oslo in the period 1831–1937. It was one of the opposition publications.
Statsborgeren was founded by Peder Soelvold[1] in 1831.[2] The editor of the paper was also Peder Soelvold between 1831 and 1835.[3] The magazine criticized the government, ruling bureaucracy and fought for the rights of farmers.[1][4] Due to tensions with the government Peder Soelvold had to resign from the post, and Henrik Wergeland replaced him as the editor of Statsborgeren.[1][5] Wergeland edited the magazine until 1937 when it folded.[1]
