In this presentation I examine the changes in Yugoslavian science after the radical political and
ideological turn that followed the break with the USSR since 1948. Prior to the split, the
scientific discourse in Yugoslavia was critical of ‘reactionary’ ‘capitalist science’, and the
scientific practice was placed in the framework of Marxism-Leninism. This framework assumed
that the science should be as close as possible to the concrete realities of the socialist society.
The basic theoretical premise of this framework was "partisanship", which saw science, as all
other spheres of human activities, as a field of ideological struggle. The preferred model of
scientific organization was almost identical to the one from the USSR. This meant that the
science was developed in the context of the planned economy and with centralizing tendencies.
After the break with the USSR, however, Yugoslavian science policy took a different turn: it was
increasingly characterized by de...centralization in the organization and the introduction of the
concept of autonomous science. I argue that those developments reflected the introduction of the
limited market economy in FPRY, that followed the break with USSR and its economic and
political model. The nature of changes in the organization of science in the FPRY could shed
light on the relationship between political ideology and science in general.
