Sociological Institute of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences Records

Sociology, along with other social sciences, was under a strong political pressure in the socialist era. After the foundation of the Sociological Research Group (1963), sociologists tried to make room for more autonomous academic activities. “Critical sociology” formed in part because many sociologists refused to legitimize the communist regime through their work. This collection gives insights into this controversial dynamic, i.e. the struggle between scholars on the one hand and political institutions on the other.

在社会主义时期，社会学及其它社会科学领域承受了巨大的政治压力。自1963年社会学研究会（Sociological Research Group）成立之后，社会学家们努力为更为自主的学术活动争取空间。“批判性社会学”部分形成于众多社会学家拒绝通过其工作合法化共产主义政权的背景下。本数据集揭示了这一颇具争议的动态，即学者一方与政治机构另一方之间的斗争，提供了深刻见解。
