Beskrivning
Focusing on cooperative exchanges between Czechoslovakia and Poland in the 1960s and 70s, this collection explores international science collaborations during the Cold War. During the era of real socialism, the states of Central and Eastern Europe were caught between the "East" and the "West." As members of the Eastern Bloc they had to adhere to Moscow centrism, yet partial autonomy in scientific internationalism and longstanding Western-oriented traditions created space for exceptions. The Contributors to this volume provide a nuanced understanding of socialist hierarchies and the knowledge transfers they facilitated, challenging the perception that socialist scholars acted solely according to rigid, reciprocal plans.

Recensioner i media

This excellently composed volume brings together eminent experts in the history of science of East Central Europe. …The focus on two East Central European countries allows for an innovative view of the history of scientific relations, because it brings regions into focus that cannot simply be classified within narratives of post- or decolonial relations. In this way the volume successfully contributes to a de-centering of the history of science. Claudia Kraft, University of Vienna
