Published by: Foreign Policy Research Center

Summary/Abstract: The first section of the present article will contrast quantitative progress with major deficiencies in the substantive development of the discipline. The second part will argue in favour of a comparatively informed Central-East European variety of political science with a “regional stamp” that would focus on ethno-cultural pluralisation as a thematic issue. The third section will discuss several approaches and projects in the region which might point the way.
