The Central European Labour Studies Institute (CELSI) is a research institute based in Bratislava, Slovakia that specialises in labour markets and migration.
Formation
CELSI was founded in 2008 by Dr. Martin Kahanec and Dr. Marta Kahancova, professors of Public Policy and Political Science, respectively, at the Central European University in Budapest, Hungary.[1] Their objective was to create an institution where ideas and knowledge about labour markets in Central and Eastern Europe could be shared. Therefore, as well as being an independent research institute with its own in-house research team, CELSI was also conceived as a means for building a network of research fellows across the globe.[2]
Research
CELSI’s research is published in international peer-reviewed journals, such as the Economics of Transition, International Journal of Manpower, European Journal of Industrial Relations, International Migration Review, and the IZA Journal of Migration. Books authored or edited by CELSI researchers have been published by renowned international publishers, including Palgrave, Edward Elgar, or Springer; book chapters appeared in edited volumes published by Oxford University Press. CELSI has participated in international research projects, including EU’s Framework Programme 7. CELSI is an affiliate partner of the Marie Curie International Training Network EDUWORKS.[3]
Research Areas
Currently, CELSI focuses on the following research areas:[4]
- Labour Markets and Institutions
- Work and Institutions
- Business and Society
- Ethnicity and Migration
Discussion Papers
CELSI’s flagship publication platform is its Discussion Paper series, which presents papers by academics from various different disciplines related to labour and migration issues. Its objective is to promote the sharing of knowledge and expertise between diverse social science disciplines, such as economics, political science, social anthropology and social psychology.[5]
Research Reports
CELSI also publishes the Research Report series, which presents detailed policy studies by CELSI’s in-house researchers as well as associate researchers, often in cooperation with international organisations, such as the European Commission and the World Bank.[6]
Recognition
Since 2012, CELSI has been listed as the #1 economic research institute in Slovakia by RePEc, and its Scientific Director, Dr. Martin Kahanec, is listed as the #1 contributing author.[7] In June 2013, CELSI Scientific Director Martin Kahanec was featured on BBC News for his contribution to a study which found welfare generosity has no impact on immigration.[8]
