abstract="Several new books have been published in recent years on the history of health and medicine in the Soviet Union, each building on a substantial corpus of documents. This research note proposes a comparative reading of six volumes in order to sketch the outlines of current historiography on the topic. In particular, it emphasizes four elements of the vast and rich content available: the intricate relationships forged between doctors and the state, health care measures implemented, the medicalization of social affairs as seen through the prism of sexuality and suicide, and the free movement of medical techniques and knowledge. © Social History.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
