Welcome to the Masaryk Institute and Archive of the ASCR!
The Masaryk Institute and Archive of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic, Public Research Institute, is an ASCR research institute. Its uniqueness derives from the interdisciplinary overlap of its research spheres (particularly history, archive science, historical auxiliary disciplines, politology and literary history). It is engaged in research into the modern history of the Czech Lands in the Central European context with the accent on Masaryk and Beneš research and the history of research institutes and researchers, as well as focusing on archive keeping and codicology. Its activities also include the acceptance and processing of archive materials from ASCR establishments and archive materials originating in the activities of individual researchers. It also deals on a contractual basis with the T. G. Masaryk Institute Civic Advisory Centre archive and book fonds. The Institute provides servicing and consultation services of a research and informational nature and arranges supervision of ASCR record management.
