OSLO (Reuters) - jailed Chinese dissident Liu Xiaobo received the Nobel Prize for peace during a ceremony where he was represented by an empty chair and he devoted "lost souls" prison of the Suppression of the 1989 Tian An Men square.

China called the prize in Oslo "political farce."

Bush Barack Obama, winner of last year's peace prize claimed quick release 54-year-old Liu, who had been imprisoned for 11 years for subversion last year.

In Beijing, intensified police patrols at key points Friday, including the Tian An Men, where witnesses said hundreds or thousands were killed when troops crushed reform protests and apartment Liu where his wife believes is under house arrest. The authorities tightened a splinter repression.

There is no sign of the difficulty in Beijing where memories of Tiananmen disappeared for many people that China has increased as an economic and political power global custody bilge while tight Communist society.

Instead of the award of the Nobel Prize medal and citation to Liu he was simply placed on his chair at the ceremony at the Oslo City Hall as the spectators applauded. A large portrait of the winner, bespectacled and smiling, hanging around.

Norwegian actress Liv Ullmann has read an address made by Liu, who has been closely involved in the Tiananmen Square and most recently helps build reform group 08 of the Charter, a court trial for subversion in December 2009.

"I, filled with optimism, watch before the advent of a free future of China," said the address.

"There is no force that can put an end to the human quest for freedom, and China will be ultimately becoming a country ruled by law, where reign in human rights."

"Hatred can rot away in intelligence and consciousness of the person." (The enemy mentality will be poison the minds of a nation, encourage the cruel mortal struggles, destroy society tolerance and humanity and undermine the country's progress towards freedom and democracy.

It was the first time that a Nobel Laureate in detention had not been officially represented since the Nazi Germany prohibit pacifist Carl von Ossietzky dealing in 1935. Several prisoners jailed or winners since represented by the family, but China did not allow someone to Liu to Oslo.

Thousand guests when standing ovation Pink City Hall the President Norwegian Nobel Thorbjoern Jagland called for the release of Liu.

"Liu told his wife that he would like the price of peace this year to devoted to"the souls lost in the June 4."" It is a pleasure for to fulfil us his wish, said Jagland.

An economically strong China full civil law would be beneficial to the world, but without them would be "danger of economic and social crises... with negative consequences for us all", Jagland said.

"We can to some extent that China with 1.3 billion population is carrying out of humanity on its shoulders."

China appeared to have blocked Western news websites, including the BBC and CNN media makes no mention of the ceremony, apart from a statement condemning the price.

Glory of Liu overseas was lost on many people in Beijing, where the lives of millions have changed radically since the Suppression of 1989 on pro-democracy demonstrators.

"Everything is now different since the 1989 uprising." Ideas people have changed. "China has changed," says Ma Junpeng businesswoman. "People like Liu are irrelevant."

With repression forcing dissidents stay in China, approximately 150 Liu-supporters living abroad visited Oslo to participate in the gala of their colleague and hero.

"Liu is the soul of China. "I know that deep down, the Chinese people disagree with this regime," said Flavie Zhang, 45, who now lives in France. "I was in tears ceremony."

Approximately 40 demonstrators anti-Liu staged a counter-demonstration in Oslo carrying signs: "Liu is a criminal," "Peace in China Award" and "no interference in the internal affairs of China".

At any given time some rival anti-Liu rushed demonstrators carrying signs "Free Liu Xiaobo", then then one of the signs in pieces.

"I feel threatened and understand why the Chinese people feel that they cannot go out and express their support, said Mandy Kan, 36, a native of Hong Kong which conferences at the University of Oxford."

Xiu Hua, a researcher who has left China in the 1980s, said she regretted the altercation, but added, "the Nobel Committee ignores completely China."

DIPLOMATIC CONFLICT

Price of peace, as often in the past, awakened diplomatic international conflict, with China, accusing the Commission to represent the interests of the arrogant Western nations seeking to impose their views on a hostile world.

"Facts show entirely that the Nobel Committee's decision does not represent the majority of the peoples of the world, especially the desire of most developing countries." Prejudice and lies will not stand, "said the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs."

China, inspired by its growing economic weight in the world, assembled what he calls a campaign to encourage countries to boycott the ceremony unprecedented.

China has stated that the "majority" of nations boycott but naming Norwegian said Committee attend two-thirds of invitees.

Among the countries involved do not was Russia Kazakhstan, Saudi Arabia, Tunisia, Pakistan, Serbia, Iraq, Viet Nam, Iran, the Afghanistan Egypt, Sudan, Cuba, Morocco Algeria.

Obama, who won the Nobel Peace Prize last year, said universal Liu represented values.

"We respect the extraordinary achievement of China to lift millions of poor and think that human rights include the dignity that comes with freedom from want." "But Mr. Liu reminds us that human dignity depends also from the advance of democracy, the rule of law and open society", he said.

The House of representatives of 402-1 an Act calling on China to release Liu adopted United States.
