From the Berlin political studies institute to Columbia and Yale
Ernst Jaeckh and Arnold Wolfers
pp. 113-131
Abstract
During the Weimar Republic, the paths of German-born Ernst Jaeckh (1875–1959) and Swiss-born Arnold Wolfers (1892–1968) crossed in Berlin, where both came to share an institutional affiliation with the German Political Studies Institute (Deutsche Hochschule für Politik (DHfP)). Jaeckh served as DHfP chair and subsequently as its president (1920–1933). Wolfers, having joined the Institute as a lecturer in 1925, was appointed studies supervisor (1927–1930), and he eventually became DHfP director under Jaeckh (1930–1933).
