Teivo Teivanen
Teivo Teivanen is a professor at the University of Helsinki, specializing in Finnish history and cultural studies. He has recently gained attention for his research on the historical context of the swastika symbol in Finland, particularly its use by the Finnish Air Force since 1918. Teivanen argues that the symbol, which has ancient roots and was originally adopted by the Finnish military for its neutral connotations, has become problematic due to its associations with Nazi Germany. His scholarly work includes a recent publication that explores the complexities and controversies surrounding the swastika's symbolism in Finnish history, especially in light of Finland's recent NATO membership and the need for greater integration with allied forces.
