Extractions: Odin Government Ministries Help ... Contact us The Nobel Peace Prize In his will of 1895 Alfred Nobel stipulated that the scientific prizes and the prize for literature should be awarded by Swedish institutions. But the decision regarding the peace prize he left to a committee appointed by the Norwegian parliament, the Storting. The reasons why the Swede Alfred Nobel entrusted this honourable task to the Norwegian national assembly are not quite clear. Norway and Sweden had been united under the same sovereign since 1814, but towards the end of the century Norwegian agitation for the dissolution of that union became increasingly strong. It may well be that this gesture was an attempt to defuse a conflict that threatened to explode. On the other hand there is nothing to indicate that Nobel was particularly involved in this constitutional crisis, living outside Sweden as he did for most of his life. Another explanation might lie in his presumed respect for the work of the Storting in the international field: for instance, its decision of 1880 in favour of international arbitration and its active support of the interparliamentary movement. The fact that the Storting appoints the five members of the Peace Prize Selection Committee does not imply that it is as such responsible for the Committee¹s decisions. The Committee is a completely independent body.

After the mandatory vote (March 96) for the change in the Federal Constitution, Rumantsch is now a national and an official language in Switzerland. Most people in Switzerland want to preserve the national cohesion: however, there are differences between cultural regions (and between town and rural areas) and sometimes it poses problems (recent votes have shown the distance between, for example, French-speaking regions and Swiss-German-speaking region, and between small towns and rural areas and big cities).
