Summary/Abstract: The paper deals with the development of the Institute of Economic and Social History, Faculty of Arts, Charles University in Prague, in the first 25 years of its activity (1993–2018). Against the background of the scientific profiling of the institute towards the modern and contemporary economic and social history of the Czech lands and Central Europe and profiling of its pedagogical activities, the paper offers an insight into the process of institutionalization of economic and social history as a distinct discipline within the Czech historical science after 1989. Due to many research projects, first-rate PhD. program, as well as the ability to integrate researchers from other institutions in Czech Republic and abroad, the institute contributes to understanding of the economic and social processes of modern times.
