Vmu Vytautas Magnus University Magnus Vmu Vytautas VMU VYTAUTAS MAGNUS UNIVERSITY MAGNUS VMU VYTAUTAS VMU VYTAUTAS MAGNUS UNIVERSITY SITY GNUS UNIVER S MA TA AU VMU VYT VMU VYTAUTAS MAGNUS UNIVERSITY VMU VYTAUTAS MAGNUS UNIVERSITY VYTAUTAS MAGNUS UNIVERSITY budding alchemist* appears at a university, A UNIVERSITY AWhere art and science show you his way To celebrate a blend of diversity, And keep you dreaming awake. Mining for gold, you get something pure: A magic potion of knowledge and passion, So potent, so liberating, so true You feel free to pursue and to ponder... Everyone here is an aspiring mage: Turning their future into a wonder. n the modern context, an alchemist has very little in common with a reclusive scientist who’s working in a shack somewhere and trying to turn lead into gold. Today’s alchemist is a modern man, a philosopher whose Iwork and ideas transcend his own era, and who sees and perceives the world from a much wider perspective. For such a person, even “gold” has a completely different meaning: instead of the pursuit of a noble metal or elixir for eternal physical life, it signifies enlightenment and attainment of useful nuggets of wisdom. Here, gold symbolizes the highest consciousness and an extremely perceptive mind. Where can one find such people today? Indubitably, at the university. Vytautas Magnus University is the magnet which attracts talented individuals from Lithuania and all over the world. Its geographical setting is no less special than its history or mission: Kaunas is the academic and cultural capital of Lithuania. Our location is not only a comfortable vantage point for observation of the world, but also a great launching pad for reaching it. Lithuanian climate is highly favourable to intellectuals: its four seasons are four transformations where peaceful times so suited for contemplation and analysis are periodically replaced by change and movement. People have to keep in constant motion here; after all, movement leads to a life that is not only healthy but also full of intellectual challenges.

Analysis of the pre-1989 situation Lithuanian sociologists, representatives of a small scientific community, have produced few analyses of the development of their discipline and of the strengths and weaknesses of results in its different branches. A small number of authors have contributed general overviews (Gaidys and Vosyliūtė, 1995; Gaidys, 1996) or have written on some aspects of sociological investigation (Rapoportas, 1997; Valantiejus, 1995; Kraniauskas, 2001). Lithuanian sociology’s pre-war history and its several phases in Soviet times have been described (Vosyliūtė, 1996, 1998, 2000). Sociology in the socialist period During the postwar period in Lithuania, Soviet Communist doctrine rejected the scientific heritage and traditions of social sciences of the inter-war period, which were publicly labeled “bourgeois science”.

  • The Features of the History of Sociology in Lithuania
    ‘‘Social Transformations in Contemporary Society’’, 2013 (1) ISSN 2345-0126 (online) THE FEATURES OF THE HISTORY OF SOCIOLOGY IN LITHUANIA Aida Vaicekauskaite Kaunas University of Technology, Lithuania Abstract The purpose – is to reveal the stages of the development of history of Lithuanian sociology and its specific features. Methodology. The article is based on the survey of sources analysing the history of sociology, paying special attention to manifestations of sociology in Lithuania during various periods of time. Findings. Sociology is one of the youngest academic disciplines established as a distinct field of study in Europe only in the 19th century. Three main fields of investigation can be distinguished in the history of Lithuanian sociology: the pre-war period, the soviet period and the post-soviet period. Each period is characterised by its peculiar opportunities for sociologists’ professional expression, challenges and achievements; as well as different topics and directions for sociological research. After the review of sources dealing with the history of sociology, it must be noted that there are three main stages of the development of sociology: (1) the period of 1960- 1970, characterised by work study; (2) since the 1970s the main attention has been paid to social planning; (3) the period starting from 1989 is distinguished for the beginning of public opinion poll. Research limitations/implications. This brief review of the history of sociology in Lithuania is rather fragmentary; a thorough analysis needs more time and more comprehensive studies. Practical implications. The importance of the study shows in the fact that the research of the history of Lithuanian sociology can be helpful in analysing the issues of sociological professionalism and identity.
