This Festschrift for Otmar Höll elaborates on various aspects of his work on international security through the contributions of friends and colleagues. The issue of security is framed as a mediated endeavour and discussed along issues of Global Governance, conflict mediation and comprehensive approaches to foreign and security policy.
In over four decades of scientific exploration, Otmar Höll has approached international security from often unorthodox and unconventional perspectives. Starting with the issues of development and environmental policy, the challenge of a more comprehensive notion of security increasingly becomes a primary focus. Otmar Höll accepted this challenge and sought to combine it with his interests in the theory of political psychology, the practice of psychotherapeutic and mediated approaches to conflict resolution. Comprehensive Security therefore became a concept with a particular personal relevance. This Festschrift highlights Otmar Höll’s professional achievement through the contributions of friends, companions and colleagues.
