Internationalisation of Social Sciences in Central and Eastern
Europe explores the way in which social sciences, in comparison
with other sciences in Europe, have been divided by the political
orders of West and East. As part of the field of science policies
in Europe, this book contributes to the creation of a new
understanding of the European academic landscape of social sciences
with particular focus on CEE countries.
In its investigation of the emergence of social sciences in
Central and Eastern Europe following the collapse of the
totalitarian systems, this book discusses how the
internationalisation of the social sciences and the convergence
between Western and Eastern social scientific life is hindered by
factors including funding, academic contacts, and curriculum
development. The issues addressed within the text serve to prompt
the realisation that coherence in European social sciences can be
reached only if new academic traditions and cultures are developed,
and science policies harmonised.
This book is essential reading for undergraduate and graduate
students of European Integration, CEE or Transitional Studies, and
any courses related to science policies. It is also relevant to
science administrators and policy makers at national and European
level.
