A great scientist is gone. His “Social structure and political activity” inspired me a lot in my doctoral dissertation. I also knew Erik Allardt personally from
@slsfinland
‘s social science committee where we both had time to be members at the same time. Rest in peace
En stor vetenskapsidkare är borta. Hans ”Social struktur och politisk aktivitet” inspirerade mig en hel del i doktorsavhandlingen. Jag kände Erik Allardt även personligen från @slsfinland’s samhällsvetenskapliga nämnd där vi båda hann vara medlemmar samtidigt. Vila i fred 🙏 https://t.co/gw3OjTrJ8R

Thank you Erik Allardt. You led me to Franzenia to study and as a sociologist. You were also impressed as a living person who walked from his home near Pitkänsilla to his office in the new department on Unioninkatu and was not just a guru but a smiling pensioner.
Kiitos Erik Allardt. Johdatit minut Franzeniaan opiskelemaan ja sosiologiksi. Teit vaikutuksen myös elävänä ihmisenä, joka käveli kotoaan Pitkänsillan kupeesta työhuoneelleen Unioninkadun uudelle laitokselle etkä ollut vain guru vaan hymyilevä eläkeläinen. https://t.co/lictZDhn2Y
