History edit

The Institute was founded in 2007 after dissolution of a larger institution, which encompassed the studies of history, languages and philosophy in Siberia.

The Institute was established on the foundation of the Unified Institute of history, philology, and philosophy of the Siberian Branch of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR (IIFiF SO AN SSSR). The Unified Institute was created on December 23, 1966, on the basis of the Humanities Research Department in the Institute of Economics and Industrial Production (IEiOPP), Siberian Branch of the Academy of Sciences. (The Industrial History Section of IEiOPP, established in March 1961, became the Humanities Research Department in July 1962).[2]
