Zlatko PEPEONIK at the Biokovo mountains, above Makarska, Croatia
Zlatko PEPEONIK, born 1934 in Varaždin, professor at the Department of Geography, Faculty of Science of the University of Zagreb, was an eminent Croatian geographer and tourism researcher. He taught also at the Portland State University, Oregon, and the University of Texas, Austin, as well as at the University of Mostar, Bosnia and Hercegovina. He was an associate member of the Croatian Academy of Sciences, and a member of the Commission for Tourism and Recreation of the International Geographical Union (IGU). He was the editor-in-chief of the scientific journals Priroda (1984–85) and Geografski horizont (1990–94). He wrote
textbooks on tourism geography. He dealt with tourism and regional geography of Croatia, Northern Europe and North America, as well as demography and spatial planning. His close relations to Austrian geography are documented by his co-authorship of the issue “International Tourism Attractions in Central and Southeastern Europe” of the Atlas of Eastern and Southeastern Europe, edited by Peter JORDAN. He died twenty years ago in Zagreb, and the symposium is organized in commemoration of this fact.
