The Development of Sociology at the Faculty of Philosophy in Skopje

Sažetak
The development of sociology at Kiril and Metodij University in Skopje began at the start of the 1960s with the introduction of instruction at all faculties, universities and advanced schools through the subject »Basic Sciences of Society«, and at the Faculties of Law, Economics and Philosophy (group for philosophy) under the title »Sociology«.
During the 1973—74 academic year, the Faculty Council of the Faculty of Philosophy decided to create a Teaching-Research Study Group for Sociology. After two-year preparations, registration of students iin the first generation of sociologists began Sn the 1975—76 academic year. From four years ago when the work of the Study Group for Sociology began, the number of students enrolled has constantly increased (from 82 students in the 1975—76 academic year to 316 ful and part time students in 1978—79). Thus, among other study groups at the Faculty of Philosophy in Skopje, it has reached first place according to number of students. However, at the same time the success of students is unsatisfactory and the attrition rate is very high.
In this report, the curriculum of the Teaching-Study Group for Sociology at the Faculty of Philosophy in Skopje is compared and contrasted with curricula of study groups for sociology at the Faculties of Philosophy in Belgrade and Zagreb. The author arrives at the general conclusion that it is better to organize a single subject course (without specializations) and a uniform profile of graduate sociologists. Furthermore, it is proposed that interdepartmental meetings of students and teachers of existing study groups for sociology in Yugoslavia be convened every second year.
The author also considers problems of the basic tendencies in the development of sociology in the world as well as methodological problems in the crisis of sociology.
