In this article the experience of Sovietization of Czechoslovak higher economic education in the period from 1945 to the mid 1950s was analyzed. The authors set themselves the task of describing the state of the study of this problem and determining the vectors for further research.
The Sovietization of higher economic education is considered in the context of deep social transformations in Czechoslovakia. For this reason, it is concluded that it is important to study the social image of professors of higher economic schools in the second half of the 1940s - 1950s, to comprehend their career paths and professional trajectories.
The authors concludes that it is necessary to widen a problem through its in-depth study in the context of intellectual transfers between the countries of the Eastern Bloc, as well as in the light of the study of new archival sources. The authors emphasize, in particular, the need to compare the Czech, Slovak and Soviet experience in construction higher economic education, especially through the prism of the social history of science, historical anthropology, and also through the analysis of knowledge transfer.
