He served as minister of justice in 1901–02 and as minister of education in 1905. He was Sweden’s ambassador to Denmark from 1905 to 1907. From 1914 to 1917, Hammarskjöld was prime minister and (simultaneously, in 1914) war minister. Hammarskjöld was a Conservative and followed a pro-German policy. Under popular pressure, Hammarskjöld’s government was forced to resign. Hammarskjöld retired from political life after 1917.
