What is the significance of the establishment of the Slovenian Theatre Institute?

Already back in the 1960s, Dušan Moravec was planning the functioning of the Slovenian National Theatre Museum [Slovenski gledališki muzej] as a museological and, more broadly, research-based activity; yet, his vision of an institute did not take off while he was in charge of the museum. In February 2014, upon the initiative of the museum, its director and experts in the field, the Government of the Republic of Slovenia ratified the decision to restructure SGM and to establish the Slovenian Theatre Institute; however, this is supposed to transpire at the time of funding cuts in all areas with no financial and personnel consolidation. We are right to ask then: what does the establishment of the institute mean in the given circumstances, especially if we take into account the fact that SGM has been working in disorganised circumstances ever since its inception?.
