This study deals with the lesser known story of the nomination of Tomáš Masaryk for the Nobel Peace Prize in 1913 and 1914. It covers the following questions: Who nominated Masaryk and for what purpose? What was the official motivation for his nomination? How did the leading circles in Vienna react to the nomination? As Masaryk was one of the harshest critics of the Habsburg Monarchy, especially of its foreign policy, his nomination was extremely controversial. It preoccupied the diplomats and officials during the crisis of the two Balkan Wars when Masaryk tried to play an active role in foreign policy. This article focuses on the analysis of the actions of the Austro-Hungarian Foreign Office and the heir to the throne Francis Ferdinand trying to frustrate his nomination.

Stany Zjednoczenie są jedynym krajem na świecie, który ma aż czterech prezydentów laureatów Pokojowej Nagrody Nobla: Theodore’a Roosevelta (1901-1909), Woodrowa Wilsona (1913-1921), Jimmy’ego Cartera (1977-1981) i Baracka Obamę (2009-). Trzej pierwsi prezydenci otrzymali to zaszczytne wyróżnienie za konkretne osiągnięcia: T. Roosevelt za mediacje w wojnie rosyjsko-japońskiej, W. Wilson za Ligę Narodów jako główny architekt pokoju po krwawej I wojnie światowej, J. Carter za swoje wysiłki na rzecz pokojowego rozwiązywania konfliktów międzynarodowych, za popieranie demokracji i praw człowieka. Barack Obama natomiast otrzymał Pokojową Nagrodę Nobla, zaledwie po kilku miesiącach sprawowania urzędu prezydenta, za dobre intencje jak przyznaje Komitet Noblowski, za stworzenie klimatu, który służy współpracy międzynarodowej.

The United States is the only country across the world, which has as many as four presidents Nobel Peace Prize laureates: Theodore Roosevelt (1901-1909), Woodrow Wilson (1913-1921), Jimmy Carter (1977-1981), and Barack Obama (2009- ). The three first presidents received this prestigious award for specific achievements: T. Roosevelt for mediations in the Russo-Japanese War; W. Wilson for the foundation of League of Nations as the main architect of peace after the bloody First World War; J. Carter for his efforts for peaceful resolution of international conflicts, for supporting democracy and human rights. On the other hand, Barack Obama received the Nobel Peace Prize, after a several months in office as President, for good intents – as the Nobel Committee has admitted, for creating the climate which serves international cooperation.
