Adventures in Vienna

On 19-20 April 2023, the workshop Commodities, Trade and Materiality in the Global Cold War was held in Vienna, in which our colleagues participated. The event was hosted by the Universität Wien and RECET (Research Center for the History of Transformations). Our colleague Ilona KAPPANYOS presented a paper on birth control pills in the socialist era (Antibaby - The Emergence and Distribution of Novel Birth Control Methods in State Socialist Hungary), and our colleague Gergely MAGOS spoke about the transformation and Sovietization of Hungarian pharmacy (The Transfer of work organization. Hungarian Pharmacy in the 1950s).
