The Första kammaren (literally "First Chamber", often abbreviated 'FK') was the upper house of the bicameral Riksdag of Sweden between 1866 and 1970 that replaced the Riksdag of the Estates. During the bicameral period, the lower house of the Riksdag was the Andra kammaren (literally "the Second Chamber"). Both chambers had generally similar and parallel powers.

  • The Första kammaren (literally "First Chamber", often abbreviated 'FK') was the upper house of the bicameral Riksdag of Sweden between 1866 and 1970 that replaced the Riksdag of the Estates. During the bicameral period, the lower house of the Riksdag was the Andra kammaren (literally "the Second Chamber"). Both chambers had generally similar and parallel powers. At the time of its abolition, the First Chamber had 151 members. These were indirectly elected for eight-year terms of office, from amongst the county councils (landsting) and city councils (stadsfullmäktige), which formed electoral colleges, some of which holding elections every year, with local elections being held every four years in even years when elections to the Second Chamber were not due to be held. During a large portion of the long tenure of power for the Social Democrats (between 1932 and 1976), the party remained in control of legislation thanks to its strong position in the First Chamber. If the two chambers made contradictory decisions in budgetary matters, they were required to meet in joint assembly to make a "coherent" decision on the issue. In other matters, no legislative outcomes could be established if the two houses were in disagreement, but issues could re-addressed by submitting a new proposal. Co-ordination between the two chambers was facilitated by the Riksdag having standing joint committees composed of members from both chambers. This is rare for two-chamber systems, which generally only employ temporary joint mediation committees to resolve a dispute between the chambers, or reserve standing joint committees for very narrow functions.

  • Första kammaren, förkortat FK, var ett indirekt valt överhus till den tvåkammarriksdag som Sverige hade åren 1867–1970. Kammaren hade vid sitt avskaffande 151 ledamöter, vilka sedan 1921 valdes till åttaåriga mandatperioder av respektive landsting och vissa stadsfullmäktige. De båda kamrarna hade samma befogenheter. Ledamöterna i landstingen och stadsfullmäktige var direkt valda av de röstberättigade. Under en stor del av det socialdemokratiska maktinnehavet 1932–1976 räddades partiet kvar vid makten tack vare sin starka ställning i första kammaren. Om de båda kamrarna fattade motstridiga beslut i budgetfrågor samlades man nämligen till ett gemensamt sammanträde för att fatta ett "samfällt" beslut i sådana frågor. I övriga frågor föll frågan, men kunde tas upp igen genom att lägga fram ett nytt förslag. Sammanjämkningen underlättades dock i Sverige av att riksdagen hade för båda kamrarna gemensamma utskott. Detta är sällsynt för ett tvåkammarsystem; det brukar nämligen i tvåkammarsystem endast förekomma tillfälliga gemensamma medlingsutskott eller liknande för att lösa en tvistefråga mellan kamrarna. Så är det till exempel i Tyskland. I Storbritannien finns joint committees. (sv)
