In this podcast Norli Lappin-Eppel speaks with Prof. Andrea Petö, Professor for Gender Studies at the Central European University (CEU), about the reasons why her university had to move from Budapest to Vienna and how this reflects the situation in Hungary. We also look back at the 4th International Bet Debora Conference, which took place in Budapest in August 2006 and was hosted by the CEU. Another topic of our talk is Andrea Petö’s research. Her focus are women in World War II: victims as well as perpetrators. She explains how these divergent topics are connected and why she thinks that it is important to reflect and talk about them.
