Summary/Abstract: Ethnological migration studies carried out within the Institute of Ethnography SASA2 have been institutionally positioned and appropriately conducted over the previous six decades, according to political and scientific policies. Subject matters and contents of these studies have been embedded into current policies, state interests, national ideologies and scientific trends, which have largely determined the course, dynamics and (in)dependency in work, thus shaping its utilitarian character. In order to understand the way in which the policy of migration studies has been devised and carried out, it is necessary to shed light on the historical context of constitution and construction of policies/programs at the Institute of Ethnography SASA, which serve as an important research point and a barometer of scientific currency and relevancy, as well as social and political determination.
