Institute for Advanced Study, CEU The Institute for Advanced Study at Central European University (IAS CEU) hosts researchers in a multidisciplinary environment.

Promoting the free and independent pursuit of scholarly research in the context of an interdisciplinary intellectual community is the main mission of CEU Institute for Advanced Study (CEU IAS). Located in Budapest, the vibrant cultural and academic hub of Central and Eastern Europe, CEU IAS brings together scholars from all over the world who work in the fields of the social sciences, humanities and the law. High level scholarly work is achieved through a combination of sustained individually undertaken research and ongoing collaborations and conversations with other scholars. CEU IAS is committed to providing its fellows with the time, space and opportunity to do both and to choose their balance and form. Scholars apply for fellowships and are selected through a rigorous selection process which involves soliciting multiple evaluations from renown experts in each field. Once in residence, IAS fellows set their own research agenda and pursue their work according to their individual schedules and pace. The Institute makes every effort possible to support this process through taking care of the fellows’ practical and intellectual needs during their stay. Fellows work on their own, with weekly formal and informal meetings and seminars, which foster an interdisciplinary intellectual community in each cohort. The Institute helps fellows meet and collaborate with local researchers in their own fields and help identify existing research groups, workshops or public lectures which may be useful for their work. The Institute follows the intellectual tradition of Collegium Budapest, the first Institute for Advanced Study in Budapest. CEU IAS is affiliated with the Central European University thus scholars have access to the intellectual and technological resources of the university, as well as its faculty, research groups and graduate students. At the same time, CEU IAS is intellectually and structurally independent of the CEU.

As we get ready to welcome our new cohort of fellows, we’re looking back at some of the research and ideas that shaped the past year at IAS CEU.

Why do some authoritarian systems become more democratic? Oleksandr Fisun, OSUN VUIAS Fellow at IAS CEU in 2025/26 and Professor of Political Science at V.N. Karazin Kharkiv National University, explores the hidden forces behind democratic development and political competition in the post-Soviet world.

His research looks at how informal power networks, institutions, and political practices can shape the evolution of political systems in ways that formal institutions alone cannot explain.

🎥 Listen to Oleksandr introduce his research and his work at IAS CEU:

Our fellowship program is meant to contribute to the formation of a Global Invisible University, integrating research, teaching, and civic engagement. GIU is a strategic initiative designed to build a new model of a “university for the future” that responds to the global crisis facing higher education, scholarship and production of and access to knowledge in contexts of war, displacement, autocratization, commercialization, and repression. It is an innovative transnational program combining university-level courses, mentoring, and research, by and for students and scholars threatened by the rising tide of authoritarianism and crises that constrain academia, with the aim of creating more resilient, democratic, and open societies and academic institutions.

We were delighted to co-host the COST workshop “The Child Patient and Medical Expertise in Times of War, Crisis, and Transformation” in Budapest. Organized by Annina Gagyiova from the Czech Academy of Sciences in Prague, and Friederike Kind-Kovács from the Hannah Arendt Institute at TU Dresden, the event brought together international scholars for engaging discussions on children, healthcare, and medical expertise across historical contexts. Many thanks to the participants for an inspiring day of exchange. We look forward to future collaborations! 🤗
