why did Thich Nhat Hanh not receive the 1967 nobel peace prize?
please, can anyone also give me a link to an article because i was unable to find any on either yahoo or google?
thanks
No prize was awarded that year. It wasn’t the only year. No peace prize was given in 1914, 1915, 1916, 1918, 1923, 1924, 1928, 1932, 1939, 1940, 1941, 1942, 1943, 1948, 1955, 1956, 1966, 1967, and 1972. According to the Nobel Prize website, in 1967 one-third of the prize money for 1966 was transferred to the Main Fund, and two-thirds to the Nobel Institute’s Special Fund.
I guess that doesn’t answer why Thich Nhat Hanh in particular did not receive the prize, but he was also not the only person nominated. UN Secretary General U Thant was also nominated that year. The number of nominees is not generally made public. And I don’t believe the inner workings of the committee are public.
A copy of Martin Luther King’s letter nominating Thich Nhat Hanh can be found here: http://www.iamhome.org/mlkletter.htm. He’s been nominated again this year, for the 2010 Nobel Peace Prize.
