POLITICAL SCIENCE IN CROATIA FROM THE STANDPOINT OF THE DISCIPLINE’S HISTORY: ON THE OCCASION OF THE PUBLICATION OF THE FIRST STUDIES
Tonči Kursar
; Fakultet političkih znanosti Sveučilišta u Zagrebu, Zagreb, Hrvatska
Sažetak
The author looks into the studies Hrestomatija politologije 1962.-2002. (Chrestomathy of political science 1962-2002) and Fakultet političkih znanosti 1962.-2002. (The Faculty of Political Science 1962-2002) and is of the opinion that these are the first serious contributions to the history of Croatian political science. The history of this discipline in the last twenty years has turned into a new sub-discipline of political science. The author shows that – especially during the 1960s – the so-called political science of the “new community” prevailed, the fact overlooked in these studies. Besides, he analyses the concept of progress in the Croatian political science used by the authors of Chrestomathy and shows that they lack understanding of the general idea of progress in political science. The author thinks that the rationalist-progressivistic concept of progress should be conceptually replaced by a contextual concept of progress in political science.
