Title: Geographie kennt keine Grenzen
Description: Geography can be - compared with other disciplines - confidently characterized as a remarkably broad multi-faceted subject with many connections to neighboring sciences. "The Geographer" absolutely - if it has given the just-mentioned large spectrum in pure form even exists - is characterized, therefore, often by the marked ability for interdisciplinary work and networked thinking and the skill of meaningful joining many items to the "big picture". The eye for the whole thing and to see the bigger picture, that is the positive interest in the "other" and "new" in this regard are particularly important. Geography knows few boundaries, at least when it is run by Peter Jurczek. The 60th birthday of Peter Jurczek was the occasion for friends, companions, former and current employees to honor him with this publication. The diverse and interdisciplinary contributions to this volume are ultimately a testament to the lively scientific exchange of Peter Jurczek and therefore a thematic as spatial image of his work. They range from Europe to Africa to Asia, from geography, sociology, political science, to Germanic culture and science.
