  • These interactions are to be examined on the levels of economic exchange and of professional and educational mobility.

  • The focus is on the people on the move between the GDR, Cuba and various hubs of the CMEA sphere.

  • This research applies a Global History approach to the Socialist World System emphasizing reciprocity and mobility.
