Abstract
The publication of articles by F. Steger, M. Schohow, M. Orzechowski 1 and I. Lipša 2 in the last two issues of the journal on the control of venereal diseases in the GDR, the Polish People Republic (PPR) and the Latvian SSR made it possible to expand joint academic interdisciplinary (historical, medical and socio-anthropological) research on this topic in four universities in Germany, Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia.
