Scientific Research Center of the Slovenian\nAcademy of Sciences and Arts (ZRC SAZU) is one of the leading research and\neducational centres in Slovenia, equivalent to prominent academic institutions\nof the Central and South Eastern Europe. It is an independent institution since\n1981, although the majority of its institutes had operated under the auspices\nof the Slovenian Academy of Sciences and Arts. The work of ZRC SAZU is highly\ninterdisciplinary: it is based on cooperation, complementarity and synergy.\nMore than three hundred associates are organized in eighteen independent\ninstitutes, which are coordinated and interconnected. Numerous and different\nfields of research could be summarized in the study of cultural, social and\nnatural phenomena, processes and practices. Results of the work are also\nreflected in scientific, professional and popular articles, in printed\nmonographs, and in online versions.
