The model of central planning of science came up for discussion in the aftermath of the de-Stalinisation process in the Soviet Union. It soon became one of the most important issues of science management in countries of the Communist bloc. Soon after the discussions took place, the model of central planning was agreed and implemented as part of the political agenda of not only the domestic Communist parties in different countries but following the wish of Moscow leaders also on the level of international cooperation within the COMECON.
