Summary: The interview with Urie Bronfenbrenner published in 1986 in the journal PEU is going to be reprinted on the occasion of his death in September 2005.
Summary of this interview: In a personal testimony and by way of self-reflective narratives, Urie Bronfenbrenner discusses how his personal history and scholarly approach have come together and influenced one another in his work. The interview illuminates his interest in the interactions between cultures, and how already legendary figures in the field of psychology influended the development of his academic commitment to strengthening the family. It also brings out Bronfenbrenner's long standing commitment to overcoming social injustice, and in general, to creating an environment which can serve a more humane human development.
