Thelin, Bengt Cultural Background Foreign Countries International Cooperation International Organizations International Relations Peace Profiles This paper presents some biographical glimpses of Dag Hammarskjold's childhood and youth. It is a period of the life of the late United Nations (UN) Secretary General (1905-1961) that has been dealt with very little by his biographers. Hammarskjold's private archives at the Royal Library in Stockholm are now available for research. These sources lead to two observations: (1) his family background, the intellectual, cultural, and international environment in which he grew up and lived were important preconditions for his later career; and (2) they deepen and confirm the knowledge of his intellectual capacity and moral integrity, showing that these characteristics, as well as his religious and responsible nature, matured early in his life. Contains 6 notes and references. (BT) |
