Yo. Espen. Calling it the "Nobel Prize For Economics" is wrong. From Merriam-Webster's Online Dictionary:
Main Entry: er·ro·ne·ous\\
Pronunciation: i-'rO-nE-&s, e-'rO-\\
Function: adjective\\
Etymology: Middle English, from Latin erroneus, from erron-, erro wanderer, from errare\\
1 : containing or characterized by error : MISTAKEN <erroneous assumptions>\\
2 archaic : WANDERING\\
- er·ro·ne·ous·ly adverb\\
- er·ro·ne·ous·ness noun\\
Perhaps there is an agenda in not pointing out this error, but it is important.


Why are you quoting this dictionary entry? This posting doesn't make any sense at all.

The point is that even though it migh be more precise to refer to the prize by its full and formal name it's not erroneous to simply refer to it as the Nobel prize in economics.
