Research activities and aims
Main objectives: To introduce young israeli students
to german history, culture and ideas; promote research
in this field; to exchange students and researchers;
to organize workshops and symposiums; to publish
a yearbook in german history and a book-series
which presents israeli research in german history. To
promote cooperation with german and non-german
universities. During the last years, the institute opened
up its activities in the field of central european history
and german culture. The german-jewish encounter
in the 19th and 20th century is a strategic topic.
The Wiener Library - although not part of the institute
- cooperates very closely with the former.
