Centre for Independent Social Research (CISR) is a nongovernmental research institute in Russia working in four main areas: Social research projects; professional development of young sociologists; the formation of professional networks in the social sciences; Sociological expertise and consultations. The CISR activities are financed mainly through Russian and international scientific funds and philanthropic organizations. Since 2001, the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation has been a key partner of CISR.〔GRANTEE PROFILE at MacArthur Foundation, http://www.macfound.org/grantees/148/〕 ==History== The thought of establishing an independent sociological center first arose in the late 1980s and was the idea of Viktor Voronkov and Oleg Vite,〔Federal Education Portal 'Economics, Sociology, Management' (in Russian), http://ecsocman.hse.ru/text/16133470/〕 who, at the time, were employees of the Leningrad division of the Academy of Sciences’ Institute of Sociology. Inspired by the rapid social and political changes taking place in the country, they gathered a group of enthusiasts and started conducting their own independent research projects. Edward Fomin, Elena Zdravomyslova, and Ingrid Oswald actively participated in the practical fulfillment of this idea. They all shared a desire to create a flexible, democratic research structure that would be capable of responding to the demands of a quickly changing Russian society and of promoting the integration of Russian sociologists into the international sociological community. The Center actually began working a few years before it was legally registered in 1991.〔("Tsentr nezavisimykh sotsyologicheskikh issledovany (Centre for Independent Social Research)," Neprikosnovenny Zapas, 2006, 2(46) )〕 In 1994, the Center acquired a converted apartment office on Vasileostrovsky Island. Thanks to the active participation of Ingrid Oswald and the support of Peter Lock and other colleagues and friends of the Center, CISR quickly developed, received more and more grants from international foundations, conducted various research projects, and became a visible actor in the Russian and international sociological communities. In 2000, CISR was able to acquire new office space on Ligovsky Prospect thanks to a grant from the Ford Foundation. The next year (2001), CISR received its first institutional grant from the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation.〔
