At the Schwalbe meeting this month, Bernd Gräfrath was elected the new Schwalbe president. As was announced before by Hans Gruber, he did step back from this office.
Thank you, Hans, for your great work as a president! Thank you for making me a member!
Bernd Gräfrath is a German philospher, born 20 October 1958. According to Wikipedia (DE) he has the core work in ethics and philosophy of Technik, which could be translated to engineering or technology. He invented the word Zukunftsphilosophie (most likely philosophy about the future). According to the same article, he also is a chess historian, although not one I worked together with yet for several reasons, including different research fields and simply having no contact to each other.
I know him only from being an avid chess composer, and I will be curious into which direction the Schwalbe will be lead by him. I hope the social approach of Hans Gruber (who is a professor for pedagogy) will be continued unter Gräfrath.
