Beg možganov od konca petdesetih do začetka devetdesetih let 20. stoletja s poudarkom na Sloveniji

This article refreshes our memory about the time of the intensive (global) brain drain, looking at the way it is dealt with in selected studies as well as the position of Slovenia from the end of the 1950s to the beginning of the 1990s, that is, when Slovenia became independent. In the first part, the author considers the various theoretical concepts and their definitions. Then, in the second part, she illuminates the phenomenon using clear data to reveal Slovenia’s integral role in the broader world currents of that time. She asserts that understanding the wider context is the kay to understanding the phenomenon in all its dimensions.Namen prispevka je osvežiti spomin na čas intenzivnega (globalnega) pojava bega možganov, na njegove tematizacije v izbranih raziskavah in na položaj v Sloveniji v obdobju od konca petdesetih let do začetka devetdesetih let 20. stoletja, to je do slovenske osamosvojitve. V prvem delu prispevka avtorica teoretsko tematizira različne pojme in njihove opredelitve, v drugem delu pa prikaz samega pojava osvetli s preglednimi podatki, ki kažejo vpetost Slovenije v takratno širšo svetovno dinamiko. V zaključku poudari, da je za razumevanje pojava v vseh njegovih razsežnostih ključno razumevanje širšega konteksta
