A becoming of political science in some countries of East Central Europe during of the communist regime

Abstract

This article is devoted to clarify the features of becoming of the political science as an academic discipline in Yugoslavia, Poland and Hungary during of the communist regimes. The author connects the becoming of political science in these countries with an attempt of its leadership to move away from the Stalinist model of socialism. Although the Eastern political science represented an eclectic mixture of Marxist political theory with Western political science, but it has contributed to the postcommunist transformations in the future.
