Congratulations to Patsy Healey, AESOP
new Honorary member.
In the Chart of
our Association we have a special category of membership:
that of Honorary members. We have used this in the past only
once. Klaus Kunzmann has been nominated Honorary member in
the first years of life of Aesop. Now that Aesop is
approaching its adulthood I have been discussing with Exco
and Corep about the opportunity to nominate new honorary
members with the intention of recognising those scholars who
have put a particular effort in the development of Aesop in
terms of ideas, organisational activity and representation
of the Association in the external world. Corep has accepted
this idea and we have decided that one honorary member for
each term of presidency should be recognised in order to
give a sense of continuity and of constructing a new
tradition.
Therefore it is my turn. Having the opportunity of
nominating a second Honorary member among the many
distinguished scholars who have contributed to the
development of Aesop I haven't had many doubts. Among the
most distinguished "founding fathers" of Aesop we have had
only one "founding mother": Patsy Healey. She has been the
one who, with the care of a mother, has probably contributed
most to our growth: in the group who has conceived the same
idea of Aesop at the beginning of the '80s, being President
between 1994 and 1996, launching various working groups,
introducing the best paper prize, and providing Aesop always
with new ideas and suggestions. Now that still very young
she has retired from active academic life she continues to
be involved in practice and research in a more essential way
showing with all her energy the way to follow for all the
scholars of our association.
I, myself, have been asked by Patsy in 1994 to chair the
working group on planning research and this has been the
beginning of my commitment in Aesop. It is a great honour
for me to ask now Patsy Healey to become our Honorary member
continuing to be linked to the association she has
contributed to create and strengthen.
