Tønnesson, Øyvind (1 december 1999). ”Mahatma Gandhi, the Missing Laureate” (på engelska). Nobelstiftelsen. http://nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/peace/articles/gandhi/index.html. Läst 3 januari 2010. ”Later, there have been speculations that the committee members could have had another deceased peace worker than Gandhi in mind when they declared that there was "no suitable living candidate", namely the Swedish UN envoy to Palestine, Count Bernadotte, who was murdered in September 1948. Today, this can be ruled out; Bernadotte had not been nominated in 1948. Thus it seems reasonable to assume that Gandhi would have been invited to Oslo to receive the Nobel Peace Prize had he been alive one more year.”
