2014 Nobel Peace Prize Awarded To Kailash Satyarthi and Malala Yousafzay
An anonymous reader writes: This year's Nobel Peace Prize has been given to Kailash Satyarthi and Malala Yousafzay for fighting to protect the rights of children and further their education. Yousafzay, at the age of 17, is the youngest recipient of the Peace Prize. Born and raised in Pakistan, she actively campaigned for girls' rights to education. In 2012, the Taliban shot her in the head, but she survived and continued her struggle. Satyarthi, a 60-year-old from India, has led many peaceful protests to fight against child slavery and illiteracy. "Satyarthi estimates that 60 million children in India, or 6 percent of the population, are forced into work. This, he believes, has nothing to do with parental poverty, illiteracy or ignorance. Above all, children are enslaved because employers benefit by getting their labour for free or for a pittance." This year's Nobel Peace Prize awards are also notable for bringing together an Indian and a Pakistani while their respective governments sustain a military conflict along a stretch of border between their countries.
But these are both great people who went through hell to great things. They could've awarded the peace prize to Hitler himself, and I'd still be thinking these awards are incredibly appropriate.
I wish I could've achieved as much as Malala when I was 17, and I can still aspire to achieve what Kailash did by the same I'm 60.
Fuck anti-education assholes, and fuck slavery.
Pakistan and India have been hostile since they first were separated from each other, but they're not so different!! Surely this gesture will make them realize this and they'll have no choice but to bury the hatchet, that's just how human psychology works.
Malala Yousafzay campaigns for womens and girls rights, and in the UK she gets sent to a private, segregated all girls school... I always found that slightly ironic.
There's some kind of myth that is sought to be promulgated by certain people that the Nobel committee is politically independent. That is completely wrong. The entire commitee is put together by votes in the parliament, and former and high profile politicians are heavily involved. So consider basically the committee's choices the result of the preferences of political appointees.
The current head of the commitee, Thorbjørn Jagland, is a former head politician of the Labour party. He was the one who gave the prize to Barack Obama. Of course, the commitee does have five people in it - but they are all political appointees, and the president has a double vote.
He has been severely and repeatedly criticised over many years, from high profile people, for completely ignoring Alfred Nobel's will. For example, here: http://www.vg.no/nyheter/innenriks/nobels-fredspris/nobel-forfatter-jagland-burde-gaatt-av-for-lenge-siden/a/10062076/ - headline "Jagland should have resigned a long time ago", criticism from the author of the book "Nobel's Will". Article about the author here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fredrik_Heffermehl .
Nobel's will states that the prize should go to whomever works to reduce standing armies and arrange peace conferences - it should go to efforts to reduce conventional wars.
The new conservative government has indicated that they are going to remove Jagland. Jagland has presented a conspiracy theory that this is because they are trying to please China. But that's probably not going to float, so the streak of madness and Labour party preference is going to end soon.
Neither has contributed much to the "fraternity of nations" and the "abolition or reduction of standing armies." Neither did Al Gore, who also won the prize. Truth of the matter is that the Nobel committee stopped handing out Peace prizes long ago and now hands out Ideologies We Like awards. The recipients may be very deserving of some sort of award, but few lately meet the original criteria of fostering peace and reducing war, Kissinger and Obama being the starkest proof of that. It's sad really: with all the wars that are raging now, you'd think promoting peace would be important to someone.
Where's Obama's second Peace Prize?
"In 2012, the Taliban shot her in the head, but she survived and continued her struggle."
That ladies and gentlemen is what we call a zombie. Can a zombie win the nobel prize? Apparently so. I for one welcome our new teenage zombie overlords.
an educated population is one of the best defenses against mindless wars. That's why it's so important to the corrupt governments that want to wage those wars to have control of the education systems in their societies.
My God, it's Full of Source!

Is there any proof for your hypothesis?
If she travels out of country, I am sure she will stay at a Pakistani neighborhood. Apparently she doesn't hate her race and her race does hate her. Not everything is based on race, what a novel concept to Americans, right.
I approve of this award. These are an invasion of women's rights. These are kids in need of protection. These are people who need SJWs facetweeting for them from coffee shops. Mark and Frank giggling about a 'dongle' across the hall is a first world problem.
lol, you have no idea what you're talking about and you can't even be bothered to check out wikipedia before you attack a teenage girl?
Let me make it easy for you: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M...
She attended school, despite threats from various, very scary groups that any girl caught doing so would be attacked.
There was basically a civil war while she was in school and girls were banned from attending, but she went anyways.
She worked for the BBC all this time, describing what it was like. Enlightening people in the west to the plight of girls in this area of the world.
Then the Taliban ordered her dead. A gunman drove up, ordered her to identify herself or he'd shoot them all. She did and was shot. She nearly died.
She survived the attack and continued to attend school.
This brought world wide attention to the plight of women in Pakistan.
She recovered, continued to attend school, got exiled, etc...
She's met with damn near every world leader.
Asked and received funding to support the education of women.
Got money from the UN
Wrote books, articles, blogs, etc... all encouraging young women to attend school and get an education no matter what.
At any point during all of this she could have simply attended private school and shut her mouth to avoid the threats but she refused.
Nobel Prizes are given for a lifetime of achievement. This girl has already done more in the less than 2 decades she's been alive then the whole of the Slashdot community combined. There are a lot of questionable Nobel awards out there, but this is not one of them.
Possibly not in the US, I would not know about the UK, but here in Europe, she regularly has been in the news and on the agenda for her work.
Nothing positive has come from his actions. Name one.
So far that other guy who did get a Nobel Peace Prize has done nothing to alleviate the issues brought public by Snowden's espionage. In fact, we're worse off than before.
an educated population is one of the best defenses against mindless wars. That's why it's so important to the corrupt governments that want to wage those wars to have control of the education systems in their societies.
Because MISeducating their population is key. "Give them a light, and they'll follow it anywhere."
But this needs another caveat: If the population in general doesn't have any effective power over the goverenment, they can know exactly what's going on, be against it, but be utterly unable to change it. If some of them attempt to make such change, it just separates them out from those who will knuckle under, for easy removal from the herd.
Bantam Dominique roosters crow a four-note song. Once you've heard it as "Happy BIRTHday" you can't NOT hear it that way
Certainly in the west nobody has heard anything about the young girl since she was released from hospital after her recovery. I'm interested to know the real world changing accomplishments she has personally brought to fruition? In addition, Satyarthi "accomplishments" appear to be limited to one country. Is this then the Peace prize for India? I've seen Mother Teresa's name bounced around in justification because of her work in Calcutta but she worked in tends (if not more) nations around the world.
This is another Nobel fail. Nice people but not worthy of the prize.
I agree.
I admire both for standing up for their convictions and working hard to spread a message of a world with equal access to education and without child labour, However, their message, while relevant globally, seems to be limited to India and Pakastan.
Perhaps giving them the Nobel prize was a way that the committee thought to draw more global attention to the these human rights issues. I do agree that the achievement of global human rights and education can lead to world peace.
That being said, just preaching a message should not qualify for a Nobel Peace prize. Neither of these fit the criteria of having "done the most or the best work for fraternity between nations, for the abolition or reduction of standing armies and for the holding and promotion of peace congresses."
The worst part is that the Nobel Peace prize used to mean something and it gave the person awarded a little bit of extra gravitas in working towards peace. Now, it has been cheapen to be a political award give to people with little actual accomplishments.
Russia doesn't have bad education
Actually they do. Their education when it comes to history and especially social state of European countries is so incorrect that it only can be considered as propaganda.
Dear Taliban chauvinist pigfuckers:
In your attempt to kill Yousafzay and suppress her right to a good education, you handed her a substantial monetary reward in a gold platter. Way to go!
I think I'll have to invoke Godwin on this one or for that matter post 9/11 US, education doesn't stop wacky wars. At least not education with a high degree of political slant and indoctrination, people can read/write or for that matter be an engineer/developer and still swallow political propaganda hook, line and sinker.
This is far older and simpler than this, it's opposition to equality of the sexes. They'd rather have their women be ignorant half-slave housekeepers, sex servants, child bearers and nannies. The first step is denying them any education so they're illiterate, then wrap them in burqas and make them terrified of contact with any other male who might treat them like a human being and finally subjugate them in law, to refuse your husband is never rape, no divorce, the kids belong to the father and if a woman gets raped let's punish her because obviously she tempted them in some way.
And just to get back on that education track, if the choices are no education, religious indoctrination (ev-uh-lution? what's that?) or government indoctrination I think for the most part I favor democratically imposed standards of education over individual whack jobs who want to inflict their wacky world view on their children. Not that I think public school is necessarily a good school, but most of them are pretty bland and expose you to a wide variety of other children with different backgrounds.
Live today, because you never know what tomorrow brings
The Nobel "Peace" prize is such a farce. First we have warmonger Obama. Then we have Snowden completely ignored.

But.... what does any of that have to do with Peace? If they wanted to give her a Humanitarian award, then I would agree. But the Nobel Peace prize should be about more....
The fact you have to ask shows what lack of education has done to you.
"The likes of Facebook and WhatsApp are free to those whose privacy is of zero value."
Religious indoctrination counteracts much of the effect of education. Without religion, most well-educated people turn out to be either liberal or libertarian depending on their empathy. Throw heavy religious belief into the mix and any number of those people swing conservative.
Duh, everybody knows that headshots kill zombies, so she must be some other kind of revenant.
What does set her attackers apart is their warped interpretation of a wide spread Semitic monotheistic religion that got polluted by ancient Middle Eastern tribalism.
"The likes of Facebook and WhatsApp are free to those whose privacy is of zero value."
Anonymous Coward, cos' he can't even spell his own name :-D
I was really hoping Obama would get it again. You know, for failing to do anything or engage in combat with ISIS for months. Just letting the enemy take over and burying your head in the sand is what those anti-war protestors want after all.
Is there any proof for your hypothesis?
Yes, there is evidence. The US invasion of Iraq was not history's bloodiest war, but it was one of the dumbest. Polls taken in 2002-2003 clearly show that opposition to that invasion was strongly correlated with education level. High school dropouts were the most likely to favor invading, and people with graduate degrees were the most likely to oppose it.
This doesn't mean that education can prevent all wars, but maybe it can prevent the really dumb wars.
few lately meet the original criteria of fostering peace and reducing war,
I think it's been very broad for the last 50 years, and what they also now recognize is nonviolent resistance to tyranny. That's why MLK and Lech Walesa won the prize (among others), and I have a hard time thinking of anyone more deserving.
You are correct that Atyarthi is working in one country but you seem to forget (or don't know) it's the world's second most populated country and they have some horrendous problems re. women and children rights.
The award was also a sign to the people and politicians of India and Pakistan they are facing similar problems and should reconsider their hostilities.
"The likes of Facebook and WhatsApp are free to those whose privacy is of zero value."
Well, the EU got it a few years back and they definitely count. We'll soon see 70 years without France and Germany going at each other, which is a new high score at least up to the 15th century (didn't bother to research further back)
The change Malala has been working for essentially means the total destruction of the underpinnings of the culture of northern Pakistan. That's why conservatives in Pakistan and elsewhere fight. We are no more right to impose our social system on other cultures that we were in past centuries to impose our religion. Along with local cultures hundreds of languages are disappearing. This is a time of mass extinction of species of animals, plants, fish and human diversity. These changes are as unstoppable as they are catastrophic. It's grotesque to see so many cheering it on.
The fact that you weren't able to answer the question shows that it maybe wasn't so dumb after all...
Did you not see how ISIS tries to control what is being taught in the schools about mathematics and chemistry?
The Taliban also do the same to keep women and girls out of education because they might learn about other possibilities and lose their dependence on men.
In the US, it was illegal in the early 1800s to teach slaves how to read or write. If a slave were to learn, they would quickly overpower their masters.
Why else do you think there were times when the Catholic church would shun science? Education of the stars took away the geocentric theory and was bound to take away our importance of being the center of the universe.
Authoritarians have throughout history done what they could to control education. An ignorant populace is not a threat. An educated populace is capable of organization and can quickly create problems for the powers that be.
Examples of racism in South Africa were actually greater towards the Indian population than the African population because Indians
Place something witty here
Libertarians in practice are just conservatives without the context of history and social forces.
Education, and the education of women in particular, begets peace. Well demonstrated fact. Find another way to attack her credibility. You've failed here.
What a damned shame that awarding the Nobel Peace Prize to Obama has rendered it a joke for the rest of time. Used to be something prestigious and precious, an important statement...but then, they jumped the shark and now it's just a punchline.
Neither has contributed much to the "fraternity of nations" and the "abolition or reduction of standing armies." Neither did Al Gore, who also won the prize. Truth of the matter is that the Nobel committee stopped handing out Peace prizes long ago and now hands out Ideologies We Like awards.

It's sad really: with all the wars that are raging now, you'd think promoting peace would be important to someone.
When thugs like Arafat have won it in the past, you know that it's over!!! This year, the theme is more about how Indian Hindus should suck up to Paki Muzzies if they want due recognition
Finally - a Peace Prize goes to someone who actually earned it!
Given that the EU was founded in 1993 with the Maastricht treaty, I'm having trouble arriving at your 70 years mark. Sure, there was an economic community prior to that, but it's not 70 years old either -- it was founded less than 60 years ago. If you want to talk about Germany not fighting anyone, you might want to remember its dismemberment and occupation by the powers that conquered it; that's perhaps not as pleasant a narrative as retroactively projecting the glory of the EU back fifty years before it was even founded, but it's the only thing that's going to explain that period between the fall of Berlin and the beginning of the EEC.
They gave the EU the peace prize because, in the words of the AC above, it was an ideology with which the Prize Committee agreed, and it was politically expedient to raise pro-EU morale at a time of economic crisis, when the word "Grexit" was becoming popular as people began to talk about withdrawing from the monetary union and recovering national sovereignty from Brussels.
In hindsight. Jimmy Carter actually produced peace, specifically between Israel and Egypt, which stands today. He deserved his prize. Obama is an utter failure and seems to have the moral intelligence of a 10 yr old.
Did you not see how ISIS tries to control what is being taught in the schools about mathematics and chemistry?

The parent post you replied to agrees with everything you wrote. Why are replying as if he disagrees?
an educated population is one of the best defenses against mindless wars.
Precisely. For instance, my own country (the USA) is in the top 12% in the world in education. When was the last time you saw us start some mindless war?
Any comments?
You're an idiot?
2003
The Taliban also do the same to keep women and girls out of education because they might learn about other possibilities and lose their dependence on men.
While here, women have better access to education then men and they are still dependent on men. Go figure...
I guess maths must be challenging for you. France and Germany haven't fought each other since 1945. 2014-1945=69 which is 1 less than 70.
And the roots of the EU go back much further than 1993.
An assertive woman is a ballbreaker, yeah, right.
Listen up, homeboy: There can be no true peace without justice. Subjugation of women is not just.
BTW, "Gandhi" was simply her husband's name, which she assumed upon their marriage. Her husband (Feroze Gandhi) was not related to Mohandas.
Il n'y a pas de Planet B.
A whole bunch of people got jolted awake. You might not consider that positive, but some folks do.
And what the heck does Atyarthi have to do with NSA surveillance, anyway?
Il n'y a pas de Planet B.
In the interviews with her I've heard, she has also talked quite a bit about peace and how the likes of the Taliban do not stand for Muslims and how she understands her religion.
This cuts to one of the big problems facing us, namely the fact that groups such as the Taliban and ISIS are trying there hardest to make the west think that they are representative of Islam and therefore promote religious war.

Look everybody! It's a Taliban sympathiser, posting AC on /.!
That's only true of the American brand of libertarian. There are also leftists who are libertarian and they are the only ones who have had any real influence. Examples include Gandhi, the Dali Llama and Mandela.
Note I'm using the original definition of libertarian being the opposite of totalitarian and being one of the other 2 axis of politics.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverted_totalitarianism
They are not. Where did you get that nonsense idea from????
Your 'evidence' does not prove your hypothesis.
American news is horribly, terribly insular. I mean really, really bad.
The moral of the story is that she has a spine, and you've none.
Il n'y a pas de Planet B.
This is another Nobel fail. Nice people but brown and female so not worthy of the prize.
TFTFY.
Il n'y a pas de Planet B.
>Do you see any women grow their >food,
Yes
>take there trash out,
Yes of course
>build their house,
Yes.
> defend their border?
Of course. Ever heard of female soldiers????
>Feminist only bark for equal representation in the easy desk job.
Bullshit.
>They do not want these hard, but essential jobs,
More bullshit.
>and therefore are still dependent on men for living.
Only in twisted misogynistic sad mind.
> Sexual division of labour is still common practice
True. Unfortunately. I whish more men would go into labour and squeeze a bowling ball out off their ass. ^_^.
>and as in the past millennia still favour women.
Nonsense.
>Feminist are despicable hypocrite and manipulating this young Pakistani girl for propaganda is revolting.
You nothing but a sad mysogistic pile of shit. And before you cry "ad hominem", you just described me as revolting and despicable.
>I will not be satisfied until 50% of coffins return from war are female coffin. Equality! Equality! Equality!
Good. I hope you want equal pay for everyone as well as on average women earn only 77% of that what men get. For the same job. And I hope you vote for a female president and for more female CEOs. Zero female presidents, 4% female CEOs. Guess the next 22 US presidents should be female then. :-)
>I am very serious; send women to war. Doing so will change the world.
Sure. Just don't stop there with equality.
Nobody will ever support a war were women die in combat because only men are disposable.
Bullshit. Lots of armies have female soldiers and they did just like men.
Your world view is simply misogyn and anachronistic.
True. Unfortunately. I whish more men would go into labour and squeeze a bowling ball out off their ass. ^_^.
There is always a few exception in every field. Women in general, because that is was we are discussing here, do not do these things. Men were always seen as tool, exploitable and disposable muscle of society. I am fine with that, it is the way of nature.
Men do not breed themselves. Men are made by women, in the exact way women need them.
You bring no arguments and your decade old debunked myth of 'equal pay' only show how dishonest you are. Also, your mentioning of '4% CEO easy desk job' only give weight to my own arguments you dismissed as bullshit.
The only real gap is the life expectancy gap; when women take as much risk, and suffer the fatality, they will attain all the top position you claim lack women's representation.
Btw, I am pretty sure the goats.cx guy could squeeze a bowling ball out of his ass now.
Again, what does any of that have to do with the Nobel Peace Prize? The girl has accomplished little other than to bring an additional reminder of the plight of women in Afghanistan and some other repressive Muslim countries. Has she brought substantial change in those countries? The man has done good deeds in India but not really anywhere else.
So in the first case you have the award going to a feel good, sympathetic figure and in the second, a country specific figure. Neither has brought peace to the world. Once again the committee has given an award to those not worthy of the award given. Unfortunately, those who mark this as famebait miss the point and instead misinterpret what is being said. To say their work is not worthy of this prize is not to say their work is not valuable, important or deserving of some other more appropriate award, today or sometime in the future.
As to your specific comment re India/Pakistan: If the Nobel committee wishes to make statements like that they should just issue a press release - the peace prize should not be used for that purpose. What would be worthy of the prize is someone(s) who actually negotiate a lasting peace between the two countries and their disputed territories.
Err.. It's great reading how everyone is praising her and saying she deserves every bit of it. Frankly I don't take Nobel Award seriously anymore, I mean Obama has one, that didn't stop the drone attacks against Pakistan..right? Well, now lets talk about education. In Pakistan we do have an education system which to be honest isn't that great, boys and girls both have to chance to get education, however due to backward nature of some regions they can't really study. They're told to study Quran btw and then seek education. Being a women in Pakistan isn't that easy especially when you're stuck in some Taliban influenced area. However, I can't recall her actions and campaigns actually making any real change, we do get some media attention but the schools which are still open are empty not because their aren't students, it's because the teachers don't care. It's basically corruption that is killing everyone here. Sure she is brave and stood up for education but at the same time, she is being promoted for other means. Lot of children who share the same fate as her and have been killed already. Still I don't see any real change in my Country. She is making a small change but I can assure you, she is being led on and being pampered by other AGENCIES for their own agenda. It's pretty much the way everything goes in Pakistan. NGO's, charities. They all say they're going to HELP people but in the end, they don't get anything. And if you're going to give the same level of education that I got, then it's better not to get educated at all. Seriously the course is outdated and isn't close to any International standard. But oh well. At least everyone has something to look forward to. In the mean time we sit and watch as protestors sit in the capital and demand for freedom and people get beaten and arrested for asking for freedom and their rights in Pakistan and here we see the flags for education. I ask you, when the Government is corrupt and won't listen to people, how can you run an education campaign? Everyone outside of Pakistan thinks that giving us education would fix things, it won't education can't work because the people in-charge wouldn't let it work. Google PTI Protests etc
Follow me: http://www.twitter.com/dfg
Oh and as for shorter male life expectancy, war and hazardous jobs are not the major culprits as historically, men have generally consumed more tobacco, alcohol and drugs when compared to women in most societies, as a result they are more likely to die from many associated diseases such as lung cancer, tuberculosis and cirrhosis of the liver. On top of that, the mortality rate at birth for females is better then that for males. And to top it off, deaths resulting from cancer of the respiratory system, motor vehicle accidents, suicide, cirrhosis of the liver, emphysema, prostate cancer and coronary heart disease far outweigh the female mortality rate from breast cancer and cervical cancer.
Also, for most of our history (leaving out the last ~50 to 100 years in the developed countries), life expectancy for women of child bearing age was much lower than males of the same age group.
Decade old myth 'debunked' by sexists and misogynists you mean? Yeh, I can see why you'd believe that particular 'debunking'.
I have no idea what you were trying to get at here but if I'm reading this right, it was something along the lines that women are supposed to be nothing more than child bearers for their male overlords. What in blazes is wrong with you?
Errrrmmm you heard Taliban and jumped to the conclusion that she's from Afghanistan? Bravo...
Reality check, Pakistani defence forces (army and air force mostly) are currently fighting what can only be described as a full fledged war against the Taliban in the North Western part of the country which would imply that the Taliban are not a phenomena in Afghanistan alone.
Also, Malala is from Pakistan and the plight of women she brought world attention to, are mostly from the North Western part of the country.
As for her accomplishments, becoming the poster child of women's right in an ultra-conservative society (not implying that the entire Pakistani society is ultra-conservative but most of the North Western region where she hails from is, the Taliban just made matters exponentially worse), getting shot in the head for her trouble, surviving and continuing the good fight while she still has a price on her head and becoming a symbol for progressives in a society being pushed towards extremism (through Saudi/Qatari funding amongst other factors) and getting reviled by pretty much every extremist, all while she's still only 17. I don't know what you think accomplishments entail but I personally think that that's quite a list the young lady has accrued in a very short span of time.
