500 ## - GENERAL NOTE
General note The Iron Curtain was not an impenetrable divide, and contacts between East and West took place regularly and on various levels throughout the Cold War. This book explores how the European tourist industry transcended the ideological fault lines and the communist states attracted an ever-increasing number of Western tourists. Based on extensive original research, it examines the ramifications of tourism, from sun-and-sea package tours to human rights travels, in key Eastern European locations including East Berlin, the Soviet Union, Yugoslavia, and Albania. The book’s analysis of the politics, culture, and history of tourism to the East offers important new perspectives on European tourism in the twentieth century.
501 ## - WITH NOTE
With note Geerlings, Lonneke (2020). "Much more freedom of thought than expected there": Rosey E. Pool, a Dutch fellow traveller on holiday in the Soviet Union (1965). Tourism and Travel during the Cold War: Negotiating Tourist Experiences across the Iron Curtain. Sune Bechmann Pedersen and Christian Noack. Abingdon, Oxon/New York, Routledge: 123-138.<br/> <br/>This chapter focuses on a visit by two women activists and travellers to the Soviet Union in the 1960s. The chapter analyses the left-leaning feminist Rosey E. Pool’s private letters in which she describes her travel experiences with her partner Ursel ‘Isa’ Isenburg behind the Iron Curtain. In a reading against the grain, the chapter uncovers the multiple layers of meaning in the seemingly partisan accounts of a fellow traveller. Pool’s contemporary notes provide the reader with a very subjective take on Khrushchev’s USSR that owed little to other travelogues of the time. The chapter interprets the letters as commentary on Western political issues, such as women’s liberation and racism in the American South. <br/>
