I will put my comments in three parts, i.e. who has suffered more by not conferring noble prize on gandhi, can it be given now and relevance of gandhism.
M.K. Gandhi, born in east, educated in west, taught to the world, what wonders, his ever-lasting, ever-relevant, gospel/philosophy of peace and non-violence can do. Today when west is suffering from over-indulgence and extreme-selfishness, many colleges of US (including Harward) has launched courses in "Gandhism". This answers my first part that definitely noble-prize has suffered by not conferring peace-prize on Gandhi.
Then the question arises can it be given now to Gandhi? Answer is definately "NO". If we start giving noble prize to 'names' from the past, than list can be end-less(Aristotle,copernicus,galeleo,gautam etc).Prizes apart from reconnition gives inspiration to youth for inculcating great qualities of personalities on whom a prize is conferred, but dead people can inspire very little motivation. So prizes should not be conferred after death generally (exept gallantary-awards).
In this fast changing, materialistic world, where individualism is overtaking family values, ghandhism philosophy of non-violence and peaceful-coexistence is even more relevance than any the philosophies and discoveries made in the entire civilisation of human race, if we want to make our planet a better place to live. ///// sandeep shukla, mumbai, 4.11.05///
