Professor Kukliński was a major figure in our field with an important legacy and constant commitment to international engagement. I never forget that he made it possible for us to meet for the first time and enabled my first visit to Poland and Central Europe.

I was very sorry to hear the sad news of Antoni Kuklinski’s passing. He was one of the instrumental supporters in the establishment of the RSA Polish Division and we were very grateful for his generous support.
Sally Hardy
Chief Executive of the Regional Studies Association

More than a scholar, Prof. Kuklinski was a teacher and a thinker whose contributions have influenced all of those who have worked on the fields he cultivated. He was also a leader and a caring boss who, as you will remember, used to refer to his team of young collaborators as his “crew”.
Juan J. Palacios
University of Guadalajara, Mexico

I remember my first contact with his works trough Prof. Lasuen at the UAM, when I was doing the research for the Phd degree. And his approach stimulted me always very much.
Antonio Vazquez Barquero
Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, Spain

Prof. Antoni Kuklinski was a great man who had an exceptional power both in his arguments and in his personal character. He had a crucial impact on my personal life. I met him first time in a conference organised by Grzegorz, near Warsaw, around 1990. I was a young researcher thinking about my place in the fast changing world around me. Listening his speech, talking with him, I decided to find my place in a research community who was engaged in social and economic betterment of my country.

Był to dla mnie honor współpracować z profesorem.

Był to – tak jak to widzę – jeden z najbardziej barwnych intelektualnie ludzi jakich spotkałem

Michal Illner

Wizjoner, futurysta, strateg. Człowiek, który wydał pod swoją redakcją naukową kilka książek na temat Gospodarki Opartej na Wiedzy, na kilka lat przed tym, jak inni zaczęli się tą tematyką interesować. To on postulował, by Polska rozpoczęła nową transformację: do GOW - od gospodarki opartej na węglu, gospodarki opartej na wieprzowinie, do gospodarki opartej na wiedzy, czyli od gospodarki opartej na rolnictwie i przemyśle ciężkim, do gospodarki nowoczesnej, w której wiodącą rolę pełnią innowacje. Dopiero po prawie 20 latach opinia publiczna i politycy w naszym kraju zaczynają rozumieć Jego idee: że nasz kraj nie powinien być zasobem taniej siły roboczej, ale krajem, którego rozwój powinien być oparty na wiedzy i innowacjach.
Krzysztof Piech

Antony has been a key inspiration for my students at Roskilde University and for many research project brought on in Italy. He has been in Italy a  key speaker an the Sorrento Meeting in 2012 where his idea of a European Triple Mezzogiorno was lunched, vividly discussed and has since oriented the work of the Italian Observatory of Industry and Banks. His lecture holds in Rome at the Association for Cooperative Popular Banks his still remembered as a mile stone for the European thinking and perception.
