I was also wondering how a Nobel prize and Krugman fit in one sentence every time I read his column in NYT. Now recently even the Swedish Academy had revealed corruption and petty politics between its members. Just have to learn to ruthlessly ignore any authorities, I guess.
- lokedhs 8y agoTo be fair, the Swedish Academy is only responsible for the literature prize. While the Academy has done some fantastic things (for example, Svenska Akademiens Ordbok) they have been a social club for the intellectual elite for a long time. The economy prize (which isn't even a real Nobel prize) is given by the Swedish National Bank.
