1994 Nobel Prizes
The 1994 Nobel Prizes were awarded by the Nobel Foundation, based in Sweden. Six categories were awarded: Physics, Chemistry, Physiology or Medicine, Literature, Peace, and Economic Sciences.
Nobel Week took place from December 6 to 12, including programming such as lectures, dialogues, and discussions. The award ceremony and banquet for the Peace Prize were scheduled in Oslo on December 10, while the award ceremony and banquet for all other categories were scheduled for the same day in Stockholm.
The selection committee was divided on Nash's awarding, with some scrutinizing his mental illness and alleged anti-Semitism. As a result, the governing committee was amended with several changes: members served three-year instead of unlimited terms, and the prize's scope expanded to include political science, psychology, and sociology.
Arafat's awarding was criticized by many who scrutinized his actions as part of the Palestine Liberation Organization. In particular, Kåre Kristiansen, a member of the Nobel Committee, resigned in protest, calling him the "world's most prominent terrorist". On the other hand, Edward Said directed criticism toward Peres, Rabin, and the Oslo Accords.
