Program for visiting scholars at the Institute for East and Southeast European Studies in Regensburg (2016)

CAS 16/07/2015

The Institute for East and Southeast European Studies (IOS, www.ios-regensburg.de) in
Regensburg is an independent research facility with close links to the University of
Regensburg. It is characterized by the combination of historical and economic expertise as
well as by its focus on Eastern and Southeastern Europe. Another significant feature is the
institute’s distinct international orientation.

The IOS carries out research in three major areas concerning the historical and economic
development of Eastern and Southeastern Europe:

* Governance Between Personalization and Formalization
* Labour Relations and Work Practices
* Exchange (Migration and Trade)

Furthermore, IOS maintains a special library holding a stock of more than 320,000 media
units of literature in humanities and social sciences relating to the countries of Eastern and
Southeastern Europe.

Within the framework of its Visiting Research Fellow Program, IOS encourages applications
from historians and economists or scholars of cognate disciplines. The duration of the
research stay usually lasts between two and four weeks. The fellows are expected to conduct
research relevant to the research profile of the institute. The amount of the research allowance
is determined by the applicant’s professional experience.

Together with the University of Regensburg, the institute provides an attractive research
environment in a city known for its high quality of life. Regensburg has one of Germany’s
largest preserved medieval cities holding the status of a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
