The 'Catching Up' -- A Myth or a Strategy?

Herausgeber: Kovács, Ilona Pálné; Kutsar, Dagmar

Beschreibung

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.
