A State of War and Peace: A Look at the Nobel Peace Prize's Most Controversial Recipients

Introduction

Upon his death in 1896, Swedish chemist Alfred Nobel, inventor of dynamite, bequeathed the equivalent of $4.7 million (at the time of this publication) to create awards that would be his ultimate legacy. Every year the revered Nobel Prizes are given on December 10, the anniversary of Nobel's death. On this day, the world turns its attention on the Nobel Prize ceremonies in Sweden and Norway. The Nobel Prizes for Physics, Medicine or Physiology, Chemistry, and Literature are awarded in Stockholm, while the Nobel Peace Prize is awarded in Oslo. In addition to receiving the honor of a lifetime, Nobel laureates receive a diploma, a gold medal, and a large cash reward (In 2009 it was 10 million Swedish kroner, or 1.4 million in US doPresident Barack Obama, receives the award, it is no surprise that many voices bellow to oppose it. As soon as his nomination was announced, President Obama's critics pointed out the irony of choosing this leader, who at the time was in the middle of wars in Afghanistaontentious figures? Such figures include Yasser Arafat, awarded in 1994, the leader of the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO), whom detractors called an "unrepentant terroluding, if necessary, the use of force. Let us admit that anything at all is better than war. All borders would remain untouched, and a declaration should be made that any and every aggressor would have all of Europe against him."

Despite the secrecy behind the selection process and a t" it give more examples of what is happenenidng and breif overvciew. This is in the last paragraph and it is providng the reacder with an overview or to summaraize the text.

The question being:

Which best describes the problem presented in this excerpt?

Alfred Nobel may not be the actual person who created the prizes.

Alfred Nobel’s personal beliefs seem to contradict the purpose of the prizes.

Alfred Nobel’s original goal was to give prizes to his business associates.

Alfred Nobel may have developed the prizes against his will.

You can use elemination to determin that A C dont make any sense.

So it leaves us with b and D.

Then you can determine B becasue reading this: huge task just to create a framework that met with his wishes. Over the years, it has sometimes seemed as if his goals were left far behind, and criticism has fallen hard on the committee members. Is the current committee just a group of politicians without the qualifications or experience to make their diff" proves that D IS INCORRECT

Select all of the following that describes Andrew Carnegie. Select all that apply.
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

He donated large amounts of money to charity. He controlled a large share of the steel industry.

Explanation:

Andrew Carnegie used the latest inventions for steel production at the steel company he created, whose plant was built in Pennsylvania near the junction of several railways. He was the first to start manufacturing large steel structures. Carnegie was the first to use the vertical integration method in his company: he simultaneously owned mines in Minnesota where iron ore was mined, steamers on the Great Lakes for its transportation, coal mines and furnaces for coke production, railways for transporting coke and ore to Pennsylvania and steel mill located there. By 1900, Carnegie's company was producing more steel than the whole of Great Britain and he controlled almost the whole US steel industry.

After retiring, Carnegie took up charity work. He developed a theory according to which a person should devote the first part of his life to earning and accumulating money, and the second - to the distribution of money. Andrew Carnegie's main area of charitable investment was libraries. Carnegie also invested in the construction of concert halls, in the creation of scientific and educational centers, in support of students and teachers.
