Michael Breisky

Michael Breisky (born 29 December 1940 in Lisbon) is a former Austrian diplomat and, as a globalization critic, is the author of numerous publications on Leopold Kohr and his teaching.

His first foreign posts were in Rio de Janeiro, Oslo and Nairobi.

In 1982 Breisky advanced to the position of Austrian consul general in Milan, responsible among other things for South Tyrol.

His occupation and expertise in questions of minority protection, autonomy, regionalism and ethics led Breisky to an intensive examination of the ideas of Leopold Kohr even before his retirement, and to the (co-) establishment of the scientific advisory board of the Leopold Kohr Academy in Salzburg.
