Peace Economics Attractions
This is the tenth year of my nomination for peace economics. I've learned a lot along the way. Naming my first book "Peace Economics" no doubt helped a lot with the Norwegian Nobel Committee. Getting the former chair of this Peace Committee to give me a push since he majored in economics helped a lot. My meticulous daily records of the visible 50 current releases since the expertclick.com postings started in 2013 gave me a lot of understanding, especially since my first nominations began in 2016. The chaos of those first three years stand in sharp contrast to the surprisingly systematic investigation since then. The almost exclusive focus on the expertclick.com postings surprised me, but rare uses of academia.edu and wordpress.com have confirmed important details along the way.

We are of the opinion that the Nobel Committee tries to make awards depending on the current state of the world. For example, Russian journalists during the unpopular Ukraine war. It seemed that our turn would come when and if the economy was in trouble. That seems to be the case this year. Trump tariffs, determination to destroy checks and balances, America's soft power US Aid destroyed, and stopping university research based on political nonsense, all hurt the economy and promote dictatorship. Anti-Trump and pro-Peace Economics may be the way to the prize.
Donald Trump
When Thorbjorn Jagland picked Obama for the Peace Prize in 2009, even Obama wondered what he had done to deserve it, and Obama gave a speech about how the US saved the world in World War II. For the Peace Prize? This led to the demotion of Jagland. Now the Norwegian Committee must be terrified about such a lousy person pursuing the Peace Prize, and another American, a Trump critic, could be an attractive alternative.
Kleptocracy
When Trump's biography is written some day soon, I have suggested the title "It Was All A Grift." Some 20 Trump towers are in the works. Son in law Jared Kushner was given $2 billion to invest for Saudi Arabia. DJT stock and the meme coin are easy ways to give money to transactional Don.
Update
The day after nominations closed in 2016, 50 in a row were downloaded about 9am Oslo time. Then nothing until the three downloads the last twelve days in 2017. Then a lots of ten in a row one year and 25 in a row for another two years, then Jagland left the committee in 2020. 2021 started slow then on October 6, 2022 "Reduction of Armies" one of three reasons given in Nobel's will, was published to give double the normal response that month until recently. THAT got their attention. Last year I looked at 50 in a row, this year I broadened that criterion to 40 and higher. October to September makes a Nobel Peace Prize year. The totals for 2020-2023 were all in single digits for those four years. Then last year was 24 and this year 40 in just the 7.5 months so far. My jaw is dropping; this could finally be the year. The four months February to May are the four highest months of this five year study.
