Nobel Peace Prize

[edit]

The Nobel Peace Prize has throughout its history sparked controversy. The parliament of Norway is responsible for appointing the Peace Prize committee. Pacifist critics argue that the same parliament has pursued partisan military aims by ratifying membership in NATO in 1949, by hosting NATO troops, and by leasing ports and territorial waters to US ballistic missile submarines in 1983, making Norway less worthy to issue the Peace Prize. However the committee is fully independent from the parliament and the Norwegian parliament have no members or saying in the award issue. A member of the committee cannot at the same time be a member of the parliament and the committee include former members from all major parties, incuding those parties that oppose NATO membership.
