All INR / NHRF publications are considered innovative and reliable tools for the study of Modern Greek culture and society and are widely used by the research community (see the detailed catalogue at: http://www.eie.gr/editions/editions-ine-en.html).
Funding
State funding of the INR / NHRF covers strictly regular personnel costs only. All other activities (functional expenditures, publications, organization of conferences and seminars, scientific missions, project contracts, etc.), are funded entirely by external sources (including EU framework programmes, studies and R&D contracted by firms, local authorities and other legal entities, income from sales of books and services, donations, etc.).
