{{Teaser| Originating in 1925 as the Minority Institute, the Institute for Ethnic Studies (IES) is a public research institution operating in the field of ethnic studies, which investigates, in an interdisciplinary way, the following issues: Slovene ethnic questions; the status of Slovene ethnic communities in Italy, Austria and Hungary; the status of Slovenes in the successor states of the former Yugoslavia; the status of Slovene emigrants and of ethnic communities (national minorities and other ethnic groups) in Slovenia; the status of migrants in Slovenia; the research theory and methodology of ethnic topics; and the forms of ethnic issues (ethnicity, nationalism) in Europe and worldwide. IES is the successor of the Minority Institute, which in the period 1925-1941 functioned in Ljubljana as one of the first research institutions of its kind in the world, mostly dealing with the status of Slovenes in the neighbouring countries and of German and Hungarian minorities in Slovenia. In 1992 the IES became one of the first public research institutions in Slovenia and expanded its research focus on issues of globalisation, transnationalism and contemporary migration flows. Thematically, the Institute's researchers deal with diverse issues of immigrant integration, citizenship, interethnic reconciliation, migration/development nexus... IES has participated in various international projects and has cooperated with diverse national science foundations (e.g. Austria, USA), private and international foundations and institutions (e. g. OSI, EUMC, etc.), international organizations (e. g. UNESCO, UNDP, UNRISD, Council of Europe, OSCE) and the EU institutions (e. g. DG Education and Culture, Leonardo da Vinci Programme, 6th FP, etc.). It is important to mention that the IES is a host institution for the fellow in the framework of the 6th FP – Marie Currie Action – Intra European Fellowship.
