Mauno Jokipii (21 August 1924 – 2 January 2007)[1] was a Finnish professor at the University of Jyväskylä in history[2] specializing in World War II.[1] He was a thorough investigator and a prolific author. Among his works were studies of the local history of Jyväskylä and the university[3] and historical province of Satakunta.
Jokipii was born in Helsinki. Jokipii attended University of Helsinki from 1952 to 1959,[4] and began publishing almost immediately (1954). He received his doctorate in Philosophy in 1957.[1] He was Dean of the History-Linguistics department from 1960 to 1966.[2]
Although some of his early works had been noted, Jokipii sprung on the world scene with his 900-page study of the Finnish SS battalion in World War II. This study established a new level of detail in World War II military history.[5] Jokipii's massive work The Continuation War: An Investigation of German-Finnish Military Collaboration 1940-1941 firmly established him as a world scholar and moved the debate about German Finnish relations during World War II to a new level.[6]
Jokipii died in Jyväskylä.
