    A. 1992
    Explanation
    The correct answer is 1992. The question states that the person was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1990. Since the question is asking for the year in which the person was awarded the Harvey Price, we can assume that the Harvey Price is a separate award from the Nobel Peace Prize. Therefore, the person must have received the Harvey Price after 1990. Among the given options, the only year after 1990 is 1992, so that is the correct answer.
