My interest in the thousands of peoples (and languages) of this world is unbroken. During the preparation of the hearing of the German federal parliament I found these hand-drawn maps of the peoples and religions of Indonesia after my stay there in 1981.
As President of the ISHR I have been invited to testify on November 28, 2018 in the Human Rights Council of the German Federal Parliament („Deutscher Bundestag“) on „Threatened People“ on November 28, 2018. Having studied ethnology/cultural anthropology among other subjects, this is a topic that has accompanied me all my life.
My teacher Heinrich Leonard Cox (1935–2016) died on September 6, 2016, a few weeks after his 81st birthday. Since far too few obituaries have appeared, I would like to remember him once again.
