		Just as preparations for the 100th anniversary of the Nobel prizes near their climax, four members of the Nobel family have called for the name to be dropped from the economics prize.
		Writing in the Swedish newspaper Svenska Dagbladet, Peter Nobel and three of his relatives said the economics prize should be renamed the Riksbank Prize to reflect its real pedigree.
		Asked if the Riksbank would be happy to clear up the ambiguity and drop the Nobel name, Mr Sparve said: "No, we see no reason to change it." Peter Nobel and his cousins have no direct involvement in the Nobel Foundation, which administers the prizes and runs the finances.

	Alfred Nobel
		Ludvig (1831-1872) developed his own industry under the name Ludvig Nobels Maskinfabrik into one of Russia’s largest industrial concerns, as is still evident in the blocks of buildings at the Viborg quay in St. Petersburg.
		Ludvig Nobel was a very progressive businessman who cut down the working day from 14 to 10 1/2 hours and who shared the profit with his workers.
		She and Nobel remained friends for the rest of his life and Baroness Bertha von Sutt-ner, who was a pioneer in the peace movement and author of Down with Weapons was later (in 1905) to receive the Nobel Peace Prize, for which she probably was the original source of inspiration.

		Nobel, who lived and worked in Russia, was remembered by Faberge's chief designer, Francois Petrovich Birbaum, as being "so generous in his presents that at times it seemed that this was his chief occupation and delight".

		Sometime in 1912, using the Nobel designs as a prototype, she designed the 1913 Winter Egg, which was presented to the Tsar's mother.

	PKT message, False Prize in Nobel's Name
		The Nobel Foundation consulted the only surviving of Ludvig Nobel's children, Dr. Marta Nobel-Olienikoff, who could not prevent the institution of the Prize, in spite of her being anything but enthusiastic about the proposition.
		The Nobel Foundation was thus cajoled to administer the awarding of the Prize, which ever since the following year has been concurrent with, and using the same ceremonies, as the awarding of the Nobel Prizes that Alfred Nobel had donated through his will.
		The Nobel Foundation has not visibly reacted upon the request by the Swedish Academy (1997) that the Economics Prize be awarded at a separate ceremony, nor upon the timid call, by some family members, for the Foundation to henceforth emphasise that the Economics Prizes are not Nobel Prizes.
