ABSTRACT
Albert Jeck was the link who brought Heinz Kurz and me together. Heinz came as a research and teaching assistant to the Christian Albrechts University in Kiel in November 1971 after he had received the diploma in economics with first class honours from the Ludwig Maximilians University in Munich as the best of his vintage. In Munich, Heinz had written his diploma thesis on ‘Marx's law of the tendency of the rate of profit to fall’ under the supervision of the former Privatdocent Albert Jeck, who had already left Munich.
