The International Union of Anthropological and Ethnological
Sciences （IUAES） was established on August 23， 1948， when it
merged， in fact， with the International Congress of Anthropological
and Ethnological Sciences （ICAES）， which was founded in 1934. The
latter was the product of various Congresses of Anthropological
Sciences， starting in 1865.
The IUAES is one of the member organizations of the International
Social Science Council （ISSC） and also of the International Council
for Philosophy and Humanistic Studies （ICPHS）. The IUAES is also a
member of the International Council of Scientific Unions （ICSU）.
Its aim is to enhance exchange and communication among scholars of
all regions of the world， in a collective effort to expand human
knowledge. In this way， it hopes to contribute to a better
understanding of human society， and to a sustainable future based
on harmony between nature and culture. The IUAES once noted a draft
statement on the future of world anthropology in “Current
Anthropology” （1979）: “The scope of anthropology in terms of areas
of human interest includes such critical issues of the contemporary
world as problems of environmental management， pressure for the
progressive reduction of disparities and the restructuring of the
world order， the future of the nation-state， ethnic pluralism and
the future of national society， and the harmonization of the roles
and functions of institutions with the basic and derived biological
and psychic drives of man.” The IUAES itself consists of national
and institutional organizations in more than 50 countries in all
parts of the world， and also includes some hundreds of individual
members. The research effort and involvement of the IUAES is
principally arranged by its scientific commissions， of which，
currently， there are twenty-seven， and each of which concentrates
on some areas of anthropological interest. They included ethnic
relations， aging and the aged， women， children， youth， migration，
epidemiology and Aids， tourism， primatology， linguistics， and so
on.
