It is a great honour to publish a volume of academic essays to celebrate Gy\u00f6rgy Sch\u00f6pflin\u2019s contribution to our intellectual wellbeing (using the date of his birthday is simply a pretext).<\/p>\n

I was still a student and a penniless East European visitor to London when, in the summer of 1981, we met for the first time at one of the cosy streets of Hamstead.<\/p>\n

Gyuri was accompanied by M\u00e1ty\u00e1s S\u00e1rk\u00f6zy whom I knew from Budapest. We started a conversation like old friends about basically everything: the economic crisis in Hungary, the chances of Polish Solidarnosc and the world system theory of Immanuel Wallerstein. This conversation between us has continued ever since. Sch\u00f6pflin is an intellectual in the broadest sense of the word with the expansive knowledge and curiosity about the world: his intellectual appetite encompasses literature (its hard to name an author he hasn\u2019t read) food, politics (both global and local), history, languages, travels and jokes.\u00a0 His wit is accompanied with self-irony \u2013 and the readiness to deliberate, argue and contemplate. His endless curiosity brought him to K\u0151szeg when with Jody Jensen and Elem\u00e9r Hankiss we began our international summer university program in the mid \u201990s. \u00a0He too fell in love with the foothills of the Alpes and supported the community and municipality of the picturesque town after becoming a member of the European Parliament with all possible means.<\/p>\n

It is no accident that he has served as the president of iASK\u2019s international advisory board since the beginning of the Institute\u2019s existence.<\/p>\n

The essays in this volume were written by younger and more senior members of iASK who reflect the continous conversations we have had with Gyuri and they focus on some of the most outstanding contributions of his academic ouvre: European integration, global change and above all: Central Europe. If you not only tolerate but enjoy disagreements you have to be Central European.<\/p>\n

Gy\u00f6rgy (for some George) Sch\u00f6pflin is a par exellence <\/em>Central European intellectual with a Hungarian heart.<\/p>\n
