Soviet Science in the Scientific World System: Was It Autarchic, Self-Reliant, Distinctive, Isolated, Peripheral, Central?

Schott, Thomas

Knowledge: Creation, Diffusion, Utilization, v13 n4 p410-39 Jun 1992

Examines the extent to which scientific research in the former Soviet Union was endogenous and the degree to which it was integrated into the scientific world system during the 1970s and 1980s. Autarchy, self-reliance, and distinctiveness in scientific traditions are discussed; the center-periphery concept is examined; and results of a survey of former Soviet scientists are reported.
