The Institute of Political History held an international scientific conference with the title Openness and Closedness – Culture and Science in Hungary and the Soviet Bloc after Helsinki. It was organised in the framework of the project Western Impacts and Transfers in Hungarian Culture and Social Sciences in the 1970s and 1980s supported by the OTKA/NKFIH. I had a lecture: The (Re)Institutionalization of Hungarian Political Science, which transcript is available at my Academia.edu.
