Polish Political Sciences in a Global Context

Abstract: Looking at the contemporary Polish political sciences in a wider international perspective—and specifically analyzing their location within the global hierarchies of academic knowledge production—may not only shed new light on the field but will also provide interesting insight to workings of social sciences in peripheral context. The position of the Polish political science, as measured in terms of international rankings or indexes of citations, is rather low. Moreover, its dominant intellectual schools and m… Show more

“…Those who left the scientific field were often renowned scholars with significant achievements and international networks. It seems that this factor may explain the decline of many disciplines in Polish social sciences in international rankings that measure publications in recognised journals (Warczok and Zarycki 2018). This sudden and deep crisis in the social sciences and humanities in Poland has sharply reduced their output and international visibility.…”

“…Only those research institutes affiliated directly with the communist party were dissolved. Scholars from the eliminated units were not made unemployed, but trans-ferred to universities and other institutions (Warczok and Zarycki 2018).

“…While most of the literature dealing with academic career development has focused on Western societies, several research projects have taken a CEE focus (Dobbins and Knill, 2009;Warren et al, 2020). Researchers agree that the development of CEE scholarship has faced a plethora of obstacles, including the formerly mentioned linguistic disadvantages regarding poor English knowledge, from which many were related to the lack of ideologically open research under the Soviet oppression (Karady and Nagy, 2018;Warczok and Zarycki, 2018). In addition, during the Cold War, Western scholarship was considered as suspicious at least, if not banned outright (Dobbins, 2011).…”

“…While ideological rapprochement and the significance of the communist legacy slowly dwindled after the transition to a market economy, economic underdevelopment and the underfunding of higher education remained typical of the CEE region (Karady and Nagy, 2018;Warczok and Zarycki, 2018). However, more recently, many CEE countries have realized that, as they rely on external funding, they should make themselves more competitive (Kohoutek, 2009;Wodak and Fairclough, 2010).…”
