Comprehensive research activities, called the Priority Research Project (officially known as GRANT-IN-AID FOR SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH ON PRIORITY AREAS) have been carried out since April 1995. Under the main theme, "CHANGES IN THE SLAVIC-EURASIAN WORLD: Conditions for Existence and Coexistence," the project is currently organized into 23 research projects. Two proceedings of conferences have been published this year. Each project group has held many workshops and seminars. Some of these project groups have published the following work-in-progress occasional papers:
