Abstract
We have come together to celebrate Karl Deutsch on the occasion of his 70th birthday – on the occasion of a stage in his life when, fortunately, his statistical life expectancy has already noticeably lengthened. Not to mention our expectation of knowing him for a very, very long time to come. Not to mention his own mental and physical vitality, his still youthful exhilaration.
