PREFACE
In 2001, the Center for the Study of Balkan Societies and Cultures (CSBSC) in Graz initiated
a research project on recent historiography in Southeast Europe funded by the Austrian
Ministry of Education, Science and Culture. Sixteen historians from the region and Austria
worked on the project to analyse the state of Southeast European historiography and its
development since the end of socialism.1 The aim of the project was to define the place of
historiography in the transformed Balkan states and to present the major trends in recent
historical scholarship in the region. The authors shared the concern that history and the ways a
society remembers its past — a process to which historians make a significant contribution —
also play an important role in the current and future development of any country. The
discipline of history can impede the development of democratic and tolerant relations but it
can also facilitate them. Historians have a responsibility to society they have too often
tragically failed in the past by providing authoritarian and nationalist ideologies with
historical legitimacy. The project concentrated on the political meanings of historical writing,
and in how far historians have overcome the legacy of complicity with the communist system
and the traps of nationalism. Greece was included as a valuable comparative example of a
country that experienced transformation from another type of dictatorship to democracy.
The results revealed that history is an important issue for the states of Southeast
Europe and their populations. This is illustrated by the privileged position historiography
enjoys in comparison with other disciplines in the humanities despite the financial problems
many of the institutions engaged in historical research faced during the troubled years of
transformation. Nevertheless, in most countries of Southeast Europe a great variety of
institutes is doing research in the field of history, and society — for better or worse — is
showing an interest. The institutional framework of historical research is important for
understanding the dynamics of the production of historical knowledge since institutions have
a significant impact on how the individual historian approaches the past. A central aim of the
research project was to map the institutional landscape in the field of historiography.
The handbook gives an overview of the most significant historical research institutes
in the countries of Southeast Europe (Albania, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia,
Greece, Macedonia, Montenegro, Romania, Serbia — with a separate section on Kosovo —,
and Slovenia). Aside from state-run historical institutes, important non-governmental research
centres are included in the documentation, as well as museums and archives, in as far as they
carry out research. With this comprehensive information, the handbook details the
institutional richness and variety of historiography in the region. It not only reveals the foci of
research and the directions of state funding for historical writing, but offers details on the

Europe after Socialism. Münster et al.: Lit-Verlag, 2004.

character and output of historical institutes enabling readers to locate them and obtain an idea
of what kind of research they do. Each chapter includes information on the institutional
affiliation of the respective institute, its structure and staff, as well as its research topics and
major publications (monographs, collections and periodicals). Institutes are identified by their
original name as well as its English translation. Contact details are also given.
The institutions are described in the following order: history and history-related
institutes of the Academy of Sciences or analogous institutions; university departments of
history; regional institutes, museums and archives; non-governmental institutions and private
institutions concerned with historical research.
For anyone interested in Southeast European historiography, the handbook presents an

essential tool for locating the leading institutes in this field. By making the data available, the
authors hope to facilitate co-operation and information exchange. Although the authors did
their best to include the most relevant institutes in the handbook, they acknowledge that the
collection is not complete. Should any reader feel that a further historical research institute
should be included in this book, then he or she is invited to inform the Center for the Study of
Balkan Studies so that we can update the information.

PROFILE
The members of the university Institute of History have mainly teaching obligations, but some
of them are also engaged in research. In contrast to the Institute for National History, the
Institute of History at the Philosophical Faculty does not conduct research projects. The
institute runs a M.A. program in history.
The institute does not have a coherent research policy, as the contents of its research depend
on the decisions of the historians at the institute. Almost all recent publications deal with
various aspects of the history of Macedonia, primarily its political and diplomatic history
during the 19th and 20th centuries. There are also publications on regional and medieval
history as well as on ethnic relations. Social history is mainly confined to Assistant Professor
Violeta Ačkoska’s publications on the agrarian question in Macedonia and communist
agrarian policies after the Second World War.
PUBLICATIONS
Members of the institute are the backbone of the editorial staff of Istorija, which is the journal
of the Union of the Societies of Historians of the Republic of Macedonia'. This journal also

PROFILE
The department receives most of its funds from the state, and also some international
programmes (especially Tempus).
It has mainly teaching obligations, and does not have autonomous research centres. In
comparison to teaching, research does not enjoy particular attention.
There is therefore no specific thematic focus in research. The dominant fields are:
archaeology and local history; economic history of the inter-war rural areas (Dumitru
Sandru); history of religions in ancient times and in the Middle Ages.

Eminent historians: Gheorghe Platon, Vasile Neamţu, Ioan Caproşu, Vasile Cristian
Staff: 34
STRUCTURE
Four departments: Ancient History and Archaeology, Medieval History, Modern History,
Contemporary History.
Research Centres:
- The Interdisciplinary Centre for Archaeo-Historical Studies (prehistory, history and
archaeology of the classical ancient times, Romanian ethno-genesis and Early Middle
Ages)
- “Gheorghe I. Bratianu” history centre (social history and anthropological history,
history of culture, history of international relations).
PROFILE
Sources of funding: public funds, student fees, foreign funds (Phare, Tempus, Socrates).
The faculty is mainly a teaching institution. It offers two postgraduate courses: Romanians in
International Dealings as well as Ancient and Medieval History Sources. Despite the
existence of research centres, there is no clear and extended institutional system to organise
research.
What research is done concentrates on great political-military events of national history, and
is often carried out in a jingoistic, sometimes even nationalist a manner. In a methodological
plan, the so-called “positivist” empiricism prevails, as part of political history of traditional
type, built around the idea of the nationstate and the imperative of its historic recognition.
There is little effort at innovation discernible, altough there are some new tendencies, such as
social history and historical anthropology (Florin Alexandru Platon).
The faculty has contacts with many universities in Western Europe.

PROFILE
The Historical Institute is often called the Historical Institute of the Serbian Academy of
Sciences and Arts, although it is financed as an independent research organisation. This
assumption is caused by the fact the institute is situated in the building of the Academy, and
by the fact that Academy memmbers played a decisive role in the Institute’s work up to the
2000.
The Historical Institute is a research organisation, although in the 1950’s it was engaged in
PhD courses as well. Thereafter, faculty departments gained a monopoly in the teaching
process. It is the only centre for Ottoman studies in Serbia, and a big centre for studies on the
19th century, especially the social history of that period. It has its own big library, and the
Academy library is in the same building.

PROFILE
The institute is financed mostly by the Serbian Ministry of Science and Technology.
The Institute for the Recent History of Serbia deals with the period after 1918. In the
beginning, it was “a Republican” institution, while the Institute for Contemporary History was
“a Federal” one. Already in the 1980’s this division became irrelevant. After the NATO
bombardment, the institute lost its building and came to the very same building where the
Institute for Contemporary History had already been. In the last decade, the Institute for the
Recent History of Serbia is more oriented toward social history.

PROFILE
The institute is financed mostly by the Ministry of Science and Technology.
Like all other institutions, the Institute for Contemporary History experienced a turn toward
new methodologies and topics during 1990’s. A peculiar feature is the presence of the
institute’s researchers in media and public life, due to the politically provocative character of
their topics (especially those concerning World War II and Communism). Its library merged
with the library of the Institute for the Recent History of Serbia, and with the library of the
Institute for European Studies. The most valuable items in that merged library are its rare
periodical publications.
