Politička ekonomija – ekonomija – politologija
Political Economy - Economy - Political Science

Summary/Abstract: From the 17th to 19th century, political economy transformed from a particular social/moral science to the synonym for a liberal version of the totality of politico-cameral or “statal” sciences (sciences of common-wealth). At the turn of the 20th century, in establishing an autonomous economic science, and in the narrower profiling of political sciences, political economy began to be marginilised in economics (except in its totally ideologised “marxist-leninist” version which, after the initial Stalin's anathema, proclaimed a central position of political economy in economic sciences.) Later, in political science, political economy developed for itself a position of a particular scientific branch/subdiscipline and a teaching field for a group of disciplines which in a special way preserve links of political science with other social sciences and arts. Thus, the disciplinary structure of the contemporary political economy basically corresponds to the structure of other branches of political science and of political science as a whole. In departments of political science and international relations at world's universities, Political Economy naturally is the basic course, but the most frequent course is that of International/Global/World Political Economy.
