unreferenced date November 2009 The Harriman Institute , the first academic center in the United States devoted to the interdisciplinary study of Russia and the Soviet Union , was founded at Columbia University in 1946, with the support of the Rockefeller Foundation , as the Russian Institute. History The goals of the new regional institute, as stated in the proposal to the Rockefeller Foundation, were viewed to be twofold First, the direct advancement of knowledge in the Russian field through the coordinated research work of faculty and students and secondly, the training of these students as American specialists who will subsequently do work of authority and influence in the Russian field. Although the Institute s geographical purview has grown to encompass all the states of the former Soviet Union and the post socialist states, the Institute has remained true to its overall objectives of teaching and research. In 1982, the Russian Institute became the W. Averell Harriman Institute for the Advanced Study of the Soviet Union, in recognition both of Governor Harriman s generous endowment of the Institute and his lifetime of distinguished service. As Governor Harriman stated in the announcement of the establishment of the Harriman Institute My objective is very clear I want to stimulate and encourage the advanced study of Soviet affairs. To base policy on ignorance and illusion is very dangerous. Policy should be based on knowledge and understanding. In 1992, following the collapse of the USSR , the Institute officially expanded its focus to encompass all the states of the former Soviet Union and Eastern Europe and adopted the name of the Harriman Institute.
