ÉÙ¸¾×ÔÅÄ

During the 22nd World Congress of political science that was held in Madrid (Spain), ÉÙ¸¾×ÔÅÄ payed tribute to the exceptional contribution of Serge Hurtig to the development of the association for the past 60 years.

His connection with ÉÙ¸¾×ÔÅÄ dates back to 1952, when he attended the Hague Congress as assistant to Jean Meynaud, then Secretary General. He was ÉÙ¸¾×ÔÅÄ’s Secretary General from 1960 to 1967, and Vice President of the Executive Committee from 1979 to 1985. Appointed in 1963 editor of the International Political Science Abstracts, which had been founded in 1951, he was joined in that position by Paul Godt in 2000. Paul Godt became editor in 2003, with Serge Hurtig continuing as co-editor.

You will find below written testimonials from friends and colleagues that highlight the contribution of Serge Hurtig to ÉÙ¸¾×ÔÅÄ and the development of the discipline of political science.

And, most of these tributes were presented during the special session of the World Congress of Political Science ÉÙ¸¾×ÔÅÄ and Serge Hurtig, 1952-2012, the First 60 Years that was held on July 11 2012 from 3:00 p.m. to 4:45 p.m. You will find the recording of the session below.
