Cooperation between East and West: History of Technology in the USSR and the ICOHTEC (2014)

unapi

ICOHTEC was established soon after the years of the Khruschev thaw in Russia. The birth of ICOHTEC in 1968 coincided with some notable events, one of which was the 'Prague Spring'. A Russian historian of technology, Semyon Shukhardin, was one of the organizers of ICOHTEC. In 1976, the 6th ICOHTEC Symposium with the theme 'Technology and Society' was held in Kaluga, USSR. ICOHTEC symposia and its journal ICON have influenced the academic research work of Russian scientists. Unfortunately an obstacle for Russian authors in achieving full-blooded international contacts remains as their work continues to be published mainly in the Russian language. Another problem is that only a few of the Russian historians of technology have the opportunity to attend the symposia. Recent social and economic reforms in Russia still have not improved the financial welfare of scientists.
