This paper analyzes the transformation of research systems in Central and Eastern Europe as a coincidence of opportunities and trouble. Political rebuilding has brought opportunities for the greater self-regulation of research which has been demanded by many researchers. But an appropriate institutional rebuilding of the research system is strongly restricted by sharply reduced resources, and by political pressure towards research orientated to short-term applications in industry. These factors have shaped the dynamics of the transformation of research systems in the post-communist countries and have led, so far, to rather unsatisfactory outcomes. This paper gives an overview of these developments, emphasizing the similarities between the different countries.
