'''Christian Lous Lange''' (17 September 1869 – 11 December 1938) was a Norwegian historian, teacher, and [[political science|political scientist]]. He was one of the world's foremost exponents of the theory and practice of [[Internationalism (politics)|internationalism]].

== Early life and education ==
He was born in [[Stavanger]]; his father was a military engineer and he was the grandson of the historian [[Christian C. A. Lange]]. He graduated from secondary school in 1887 and proceeded to travel and study history, [[English language|English]], and [[French language|French]] at the [[University of Oslo]], from which he received the [[cand. philol.]] degree in 1893.  He taught at secondary schools for many years and eventually returned to the University of Oslo to receive a [[doctorate]].

== Career ==
In 1899, he had his first official role in the internationalist movement when he was appointed secretary of the committee organizing an [[Oslo]] conference of the [[Inter-Parliamentary Union]], an organization dedicated to fostering discussion between parliamentarians of different countries.  The next year, he was made secretary of the [[Norwegian Nobel Committee|Nobel Committee]] of the [[Norwegian Parliament]] and, although he gave up the position in 1909, he would play a key role in the early days of the [[Norwegian Nobel Institute]].  During this time he was the Norwegian technical delegate to the [[Second Hague Peace Conference]].

Lange rejoined the Inter-Parliamentary Union in 1909 when he was appointed secretary general of the organization, a position he would retain until 1933.  As secretary general he oversaw the Union's move to [[Brussels]], sustained it in [[Oslo]] through the challenging times of [[World War I]], then moved it again to [[Geneva]] after the war.  He remained active in numerous other organizations as well, acting as Norway's delegate or alternate delegate to the [[League of Nations]] from its founding until 1938, writing reports and acting as a correspondent for the [[Carnegie Endowment for International Peace]], and participating in the Dutch sponsored [[Central Organisation for Durable Peace]], among other activities.  He was often called upon for his expertise in arbitration and arms control, in particular.

His intellectual support of internationalism was demonstrated by the first of a three volume historical treatise (''Histoire de l'internationalisme'').  The work, published in 1919, was said to contribute to the ideological preparation for the [[League of Nations]].<ref>"[http://nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/peace/laureates/1921/lange-bio.html Christian Lange – Biography]". Nobelprize.org Retrieved October 11, 2010</ref> For this and all his other activities, Lange shared the [[Nobel Peace Prize]] with [[Hjalmar Branting]] in 1921.

== Personal life and death ==
Lange died at the age of 69, one day after the 17th anniversary of his receipt of the Nobel Prize.  He was the father of [[Carl Viggo Manthey Lange]],  [[Halvard Lange]] and [[August Lange|Christian August Manthey Lange]].
