Extractions: The Nobel Prizes are awarded under the will of Alfred Bernhard Nobel, Swedish chemist and engineer, who died in 1896. The interest of the fund is divided annually among the persons who have made the most outstanding contributions in the fields of physics, chemistry, and physiology or medicine, who have produced the most distinguished literary work of an idealist tendency, and who have contributed most toward world peace. In 1968, a Nobel Prize of economic sciences was established by Riksbank, the Swedish bank, in celebration of its 300th anniversary. The prize was awarded for the first time in 1969. The prizes for physics and chemistry are awarded by the Swedish Academy of Science in Stockholm, the one for physiology or medicine by the Caroline Medical Institute in Stockholm, that for literature by the Academy in Stockholm, and that for peace by a committee of five elected by the Norwegian Storting. The distribution of prizes was begun on December 10, 1901, the anniversary of Nobel's death. The amount of each prize varies with the income from the fund and currently is about $190,000. No Nobel Prizes were awarded for 1940, 1941, and 1942; prizes for literature were not awarded for 1914, 1918, and 1943. See
Sweden: No Model For Eastern Europe state. Gunnar myrdal won a nobel Prize in Economics in 1974, and Alvamyrdal won a nobel Peace Prize in 1982. Conveniently forgotten http://www.libertyhaven.com/countriesandregions/sweden/swedenmodel.html
Extractions: No Model for Eastern Europe The Eastern and Central European countries that have abandoned (or at least renamed) their governments are scouting around for a new form of government. They want a system that will provide the relative freedom found in a market economy yet, at the same time, satisfy people accustomed to social welfare benefits. Delegations from East Germany, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, and the Soviet Union recently visited the Scandinavian countries to learn more about their apparently successful wedding of socialism and democracy. Most of these delegations went to Sweden, which for decades has been touted as a model welfare state. The Social Democratic government of Prime Minister Ingvar Carlsson has shown its foreign visitors around and pointed out what a "social democracy" has brought. Would the "mixed" Swedish economy, which combines private ownership of the means of production with an elaborate welfare system, be appropriate for the formerly Communist countries? Let us take a closer look at the Swedish experiment in socialism. Swedish socialism had its origins in the 1.880s, when an egalitarian movement led by August Palm, a former tailor, gave birth to Swedish unionism and the Social Democratic Party. Socialist programs, particularly the "reformed Marxism" of Eduard Bernstein, were imported from Germany. By 1932 the Social Democrats had gained majorities in both houses of Parliament. (Sweden now has a unicameral parliament with 349 seats.)

Extractions: Då Alfred Nobel stifta fredsprisen, var det mange som meinte at det var etter påverknad frå Bertha von Suttner - baronessa som tok jobb hos han og som sjølv tok i mot fredsprisen i l905. Bertha von Kinsky vart fødd 9. juni 1843 i paleet Kinsky, eit rokokkoslott i Praha. Faren døydde før dottera vart fødd, 76 år gamal. Mor som berre var 23 år, fekk store problem med økonomien. Bertha var ei intelligent jente som helst heldt seg i biblioteket. Ho vaks seg vakker og fekk mange friarar. Før ho fann sin store kjærleik, var ho trulova fire gonger. Mor var knust av skam, for dottera var blitt 30 år og måtte sjå seg etter arbeid. Det var nederlag for adelsfamilien. Bertha tok seg arbeid som guvernante hjå familien von Suttner i Wien. Her forelska ho seg i yngste sonen, sju år yngre Arthur Gundaccar, ein juridisk student. Då mor hans oppdaga forholdet, vart Bertha oppsagt. Ho var ikkje fin nok for sonen. Men mora ville hjelpa henne til nytt arbeid, og kom ein dag over ein annonse der ein rik og velutdanna herre søkte etter ei språkyndig kvinne i satt alder. Bertha svarte på annonsen og fekk brev underteikna Alfred Nobel.
