From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences,
commonly referred to as the Nobel Prize in
Economics[1] (Swedish:
Nobelpriset i
ekonomi), is an award for outstanding contributions to
the science of economics
and is generally considered one of the most prestigious awards for
that science.[2]
The official name is the Sveriges Riksbank Prize in
Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel (Swedish:
Sveriges riksbanks pris i
ekonomisk vetenskap till Alfred Nobels minne). It is
not one of the Nobel
Prizes established by the will of Alfred Nobel during 1895, but is commonly
identified with them.[2][3][4][5][6]The
Prize in Economics, as it is referred to by the Nobel
Foundation, was established and endowed by Sveriges
Riksbank, Sweden's central bank, during 1968 on the Bank's
300th anniversary, in memory of Alfred Nobel's 1895 will.[2][7][8][9]
Like the Nobel Laureates in Chemistry and Physics, Laureates in
Economics are selected by the Royal Swedish Academy of
Sciences.[10][11]
It was first awarded during 1969 to the Dutch and Norwegian
economists Jan
Tinbergen and Ragnar Frisch, "for having developed and
applied dynamic models for the analysis of economic processes."[9][12][13]
Funding of
the Prize
An endowment "in perpetuity" from Sveriges Riksbank pays the Nobel
Foundation's administrative expenses associated with the prize
and funds the monetary component of the award.[10]
Since 2001, the monetary portion of the Prize in Economics has been
10 million Swedish kronor (during January 2008,
approx. US$1.6 million; 1.1 million Euro), equivalent to the amount given
for the Nobel Prizes.[14][15][16]
Since 2006, Sveriges Riksbank has given the Nobel Foundation an
annual grant of 6.5 million Swedish kronor (in January 2008,
approx. US$1 million; 0.7 million Euro) for its administrative expenses
associated with the prize as well as 1 million Swedish kronor
(until the end of 2008) to include information about the prize in
the Nobel Foundation's internet webpage.[17]
Relation to the Nobel
Prize
The nomination process, selection criteria, and awards
presentation of the Prize in Economic Sciences are performed in a
manner similar to that of the Nobel Prizes.[10][15][18]
The Prize is awarded by the Royal Swedish Academy of
Sciences "in accordance with the rules governing the award of
the Nobel Prizes instituted through his [Alfred Nobel's] will",[10]
which stipulates that the prize is awarded annually to "those who
... shall have conferred the greatest benefit on mankind".[3]
The Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of
Alfred Nobel is the only non-Nobel prize that has ever been
associated officially with the Nobel Foundation. The next time a
similar offer was made — an offer by Jakob von Uexkull, who subsequently
established the Right Livelihood Award — the
offer was declined.
Award nomination and
selection process
Announcement of the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences
2008
According to its official website, the Royal Swedish Academy of
Sciences "administers a researcher exchange with academies in
other countries and publishes six scientific journals. Every year
the Academy awards the Nobel Prizes in Physics and Chemistry, the
Bank of Sweden Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred
Nobel, the Crafoord Prize and a number of other
large prizes".[11]
Each September the Academy's Economics Prize Committee, which
consists of five elected members, "sends invitations to thousands
of scientists, members of academies and university professors in
numerous countries, asking them to nominate candidates for the
Prize in Economics for the coming year. Members of the Academy and
former laureates are also authorised to nominate candidates."[11][10][19]
All proposals and their supporting evidence must be received before
February 1.[19]
The proposals are reviewed by the Prize Committee and specially
appointed experts. Before the end of September, the committee
chooses potential laureates. If there is a tie, the chairman of the
committee casts the deciding vote. Next, the potential laureates
must be approved by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences. Members
of the Ninth Class (the social sciences division) of the Academy
vote in mid-October to determine the next laureate or laureates of
the Prize in Economics.[10][11][20]
As with the Nobel Prizes, no more than three people can share the
prize for a given year; they must still be living at the time of
the Prize announcement in October; and information about Prize
nominations cannot be disclosed publicly for 50 years.[19]
With the Nobel Laureates in Physics, Chemistry, Physiology or
Medicine, and Literature, each Laureate in
Economics receives a diploma, gold medal, and monetary grant award
document from the King of Sweden at
the annual Nobel Prize Award Ceremony in Stockholm, on December 10—the anniversary of
Nobel's death.[2][21]
Changes to
the prize
Sylvia Nasar
wrote in her book A Beautiful Mind that
during February 1995, after acrimony pertaining to the awarding of
the 1994 Prize in Economics to John Forbes Nash,
the Prize in Economics was redefined as a prize in social science,
making it available for researchers of such topics as political
science, psychology, and sociology.[22][23]
Moreover, the composition of the Economics Prize Committee changed
to include two non-economists. This has not been confirmed by the
Economics Prize Committee. The members of the 2007 Economics Prize
Committee contradict Nasar's claim since the secretary and 4 of the
5 members are professors of economics.[24
] One should note, however, that Herbert Simon was
the first non-economist to win the prize during 1978 (his PhD was in political
science, though his influence on economics is well-known).
Controversies and
criticisms
Some critics argue that the prestige of the Prize in Economics
derives in part from its association with the Nobel Prizes, an
association that has often been a source of controversy. Among the
most vocal critics of the Prize in Economics is the Swedish human
rights lawyer Peter Nobel, a great-grandnephew of Alfred Nobel.[25]
Swedish economist Gunnar Myrdal (who was a recipient of the
prize himself) and former Swedish minister of finance Kjell-Olof
Feldt have also advocated that the Prize in Economics should be
abolished.[23]
Myrdal's position of wanting the prize abolished was based in the
fact that it had been given to such "reactionaries" as Friedrich Hayek (whom Myrdal shared the
1974 Prize in Economics with) and afterwards to Milton Friedman
in 1976.[23]
In his speech at the 1974 Nobel Banquet Friedrich Hayek stated
that if he had been consulted whether to establish a Nobel Prize in
economics he would "have decidedly advised against it"[23][26]
for two reasons, the most of which being "that the Nobel Prize
confers on an individual an authority which in economics no man
ought to possess." He stated: "This does not matter in the natural
sciences. Here the influence exercised by an individual is chiefly
an influence on his fellow experts; and they will soon cut him down
to size if he exceeds his competence. But the influence of the
economist that mainly matters is an influence over laymen:
politicians, journalists, civil servants and the public
generally."[26]
Critics have claimed the selection of recipients for the Prize
in Economics is biased toward mainstream economics, citing the
well-known apparent snub of Joan Robinson.[27][28]
This theory is in part contradicted with some widely
non-mainstream recipients of the prize including Friedrich Hayek of the Austrian School
and Ronald Coase
of the heterodox New institutional economics
thought.
The Department of Economics at the University of Chicago has
garnered nine of these Prizes—more than any other
university—leading some critics to opine that such an outcome
demonstrates either a bias, or the appearance of one, against
candidates with alternative views.[28]
Milton
Friedman was awarded the 1976 prize in part for his work on monetarism. The prize to
Friedman caused international protests,[29]
primarily in relation to a six-day trip he took to Chile during March 1975 where he gave lectures on
inflation and met with many Chilean government officials, including
the dictator Augusto Pinochet.[30]
Four Nobel Prize laureates – George Wald, Linus Pauling, David Baltimore and Salvador
Luria – wrote letters to the New York
Times protesting the award in October 1976.[31][32]
The 1994 prize to John Forbes Nash
caused controversy within the prize's selection committee because
of his history of mental illness and alleged anti-semitism.[33] The
controversy resulted in a change to the rules governing the
committee during 1994. Previously, members of the Economics Prize
Committee members did not have any limit to their term of service;
they now serve for three years.[22]
The 2005 prize to Robert Aumann was criticized by European
press due to his alleged use of his research of game theory to
justify his stance against the dismantling of Israeli settlements
from occupied territories. A petition to cancel his prize garnered
1000 signatures worldwide.[34]
The 2008 prize to Paul Krugman, a major critic of George W. Bush,
provoked controversy about a left-wing bias of the award,
prompting the prize committee to deny that "...the committee has
ever taken a political stance."[35]
Alternative
names
The official Swedish name of the Prize is Sveriges riksbanks
pris i ekonomisk vetenskap till Alfred Nobels minne. The Nobel

During the Nobel Banquet, many laureates have referred to the
prize as something other than the "Prize in Economics":
While some sources observe that the Prize in Economic Sciences
in Memory of Alfred Nobel is commonly referred to informally as the
"Nobel Prize in Economics," the press and other agencies have also
called it by other names:
- Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences[67]
- Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Science[68]
- Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics[69][70]
- Nobel Memorial Prize[71]

Laureates
Until 2009, all laureates in economics had been men. In 2009, Elinor Ostrom
became the first woman to be awarded the prize. All other five Nobel Prizes had
previously been awarded at some time to a woman.
As of 2008, about 60% of 'Economics Nobel laureates' have been
US citizens (by birth or by naturalization), with only four
laureates being from outside the US or Western Europe (Arthur Lewis, Leonid
Kantorovich, Amartya
Sen and Robert
Mundell).
