With all due respect to the late Dr. Lucas, the prize is the Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel.

It was not one of the prizes established by Nobel in his will. This prize was created in 1968.

It is not a Nobel Prize. It is wrong and misleading to call it a "Nobel Prize".
