Summary/Abstract: The Institute of Modern History was formed (under its present name) forty years ago, on February 1969, when the Department of History of the Yugoslav Workers Movement, a part of the Institute for the Study of the Workers Movement, fused with the Department of Historical Studies of the Institute of Social Studies. In the second half of 1958, with the arrival of young, educated historians these two departments began an organized and systematic study of the modern history of the Yugoslav people, and it is this year which is taken as the actual beginning of the Institute. The Institute’s present research activity is centered around the macro-project »Yugoslav History of the 20th Century«. The first results of research were published in the Institute’s periodic publications: »The History of the 20th Century«, Collection of Works, »The History of the Workers Movement«, Collection of Works, and »Contributions to the History of Socialism«.
