The purpose of this study has been to examine, from the historical perspective, how the member magazine of two peace movements describes the threat of nuclear weapons and the issue of disarmament, as well as who is responsible for the threat. Based on the historians Karlsson and Zanders's division into the seven categories of the use of history, I've analyzed the peace movements' description of the threat and what narrative is conveyed in the editorial pages. I've used a quantitative content analysis of the source material. The quantitative analysis method has been based on the frequencies of positive and negative statements in 11 different theme groups.
