| Publisher Description: It is an honor for us to introduce this collection of essays, which is dedicated to an old friend and colleague who is no longer with us. It is an honor, but also a pleasure because we feel like continuing a dialogue with J rgen; one that has never broken down over the years, revisiting and recalling the diff- ent places and occasions where we met, discussed, collaborated and had fun. We, that is, Giuseppe Caforio, Christopher Dandeker and Gerhard K mmel who have been friends and/or colleagues of and research collaborators with J rgen and who represent three prominent institutions and organizations with which J rgen worked, felt that this book is something we owe to J rgen and we are grateful that many people who at different times and at different places had contact with J rgen and his work were willing to contribute a chapter to this anthology. Most of J rgen's studies, professional work and research activities took place at the Bundeswehr Institute of Social Sciences (SOWI). J rgen, born in 1938, had joined the Bundeswehr in 1957 and had already worked at the SOWI's predecessor institution, the Scientific Institute for Education in the Armed Forces from 1971 onwards after having finished his university? st- ies. Since this institute was renamed SOWI in 1974, J rgen belonged to the first generation of researchers that worked at the SOWI. |
