Intellectual Elites, Scientific and Cultural Institutions in Socialist Croatia from 1945 to 1960

Abstract: In this paper the author presents the situation in Croatia and Yugoslavia after WWII in the field of sciences. The development of scientific institutions is briefly presented, with the emphasis on the forms of government policies towards intellectual elites and the main institution of science, that is the University of Zagreb and the Yugoslav Academy of Science and Arts. These forms of politics of the regime were changing during the period, but some characteristics common for the Communist regimes in Central and Easter Europe were present all the time. In the context of the position of those two institutions, the relations of the institutions and individuals active in this period are shown, focusing on some examples.
