Macedonian Scientific Institute

In the beginning, the Institute began to publish the journal Macedonian Review and other scientific studies on the Bulgarian population in Macedonia.

The new authorities began a policy of removing any Bulgarian influence, making Macedonia a connecting link for the establishment of new Balkan Federative Republic and thereby creating a distinct Slav Macedonian consciousness.

The archives and the whole museum collection (including the remains of the revolutionary Gotse Delchev) were transported to the newly established People's Republic of Macedonia.

The Macedonian Scientific Institute also accepted a research programme and have published new collections of documents, monographs etc.

Professors Otto Kronsteiner (Austria), Tadeusz Szymański (Poland) and Heinrich Stamler (USA) were elected to be foreign corresponding members of the MSI.
