The Establishment and Organization of the Institute for the Study of National Minority Affairs (1921–1939)

Summary/Abstract: In December 1921, the Institute for the Study of National Affairs commenced its activities, specialising in the research on national minorities in Poland and Polish minorities in the border regions. The Institute was established on the initiative of individuals associated with the scientific and political spheres of the period. From 1924 to 1925, the Institute’s activities were suspended. In 1926, the Institute resumed its work as an association. Members of the Institute were classified as actual and ordinary members. The Institute was overseen by a Board, beneath which operated the Office of the Institute. Its work was organised through sections and committees. The organisation of the Institute was very modern for its time. Although it employed a small number of people, their great commitment, efficient organisation of work, and impressive number of permanent and temporary collaborators enabled it to accomplish a vast amount of scientific and documentary work.
