90th Anniversary of the Institute of History of the ASCR

The Institute of History of the ASCR celebrated its 90th anniversary in 2011. The Institute, re-established in 1990, is the successor of the Czechoslovak State Historical Publishing Institute founded in 1920 and incorporated in 1953 into the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences as the Academy’s Institute of History. In 1970, this Institute was abolished and reorganized to form the Institute of Czechoslovak and World History within the Academy, which was dissolved in 1989. In 1990, the reestablished Institute of History was merged with part of the former Institute of Central and East European History of the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences. The research scope of the Institute covers Bohemian, Czechoslovak and general (especially Central and East European) history from the Early Middle Ages to World War II, including the theory and methods of historical research, with long-term projects on encyclopaedic and biographical studies and historical geography.
