We are truly sad to hear about the passing of Dr. Fabienne Maron. For many years she has been of great significance for the field of public administration in Europe and also beyond. We wish to offer our sincere condolences to everyone mourning the loss. The IIAS website (https://iias-iisa.org/news/a-tribute-to-fabienne-maron/) displays several really touching memorials for a great person whom we should, and will, remember in our field.
