  With the end of the Second World War, the city administration of Hajdúszoboszló thought that the time had come to formulate large-scale plans for the development of the spa, which is a tourist attraction of the settlement. The local tourism policy primarily focused on developing the town into a world bath town, but the city administration had almost no financial resources to realize the idea. They were highly confident that they would receive government support to achieve their goal within the framework of the new political and economic system, but they soon became disappointed. Based on the minutes of the Board of Representatives, I examine in my study how the town management tried to assert its interests in the late 1940s in the face of dwindling development opportunities and ever-changing political and organizational frameworks, and how MPs responded to the new ideological expectations. According to the minutes of the Board of Representatives, three issues generated particularly many controversy during the period under review: the exploration and utilization of medicinal clay, the acquisition of a spa or holiday resort title, and the price of spa tickets. Therefore, I shed light on the questions raised in this study by a detailed analysis of these three issues.

  After 1945, the hospital care system had to be rebuilt and substantially expanded, as the health
  insurance system was being extended. The paper examines the extent to which the targets set
  during the second and third five-year plans were achieved, how the availability of hospital beds
  differed between Budapest and rural areas, and what characterized the geographical distribution
  of hospital beds. These questions are addressed using a comparative approach (by comparing the
  planned objectives with their actual outcomes) and cartographic methods. The objectives of the
  plan ending in 1965 were largely achieved, though the construction of new hospitals was the area
  in which the targets were least successfully met. However, in the third five-year plan ending in
  1970, there were shortfalls in almost every area. The ratio of general hospital beds between Budapest
  and rural areas decreased from three-to-one to two-to-one, although the significance of this
  change is context-dependent. Furthermore, mapping hospitals and bed numbers revealed which
  areas were experiencing bed shortages.

  A Hajdú-Bihar Megyei és Debreceni Honismereti Egyesület 2014 tavaszán elindított egy teljesen elektronikus kiadású, tudományos és ismeretterjesztő folyóiratot. A tervek szerint negyedévente megjelenő lap táji-térségi szinten, a Biharra, Debrecenre és a Hajdúvidékre irányuló kutatások fórumaként fog működni. A magyarországi kutatók mellett várja a határon túliakat, és biztosítja a lehetőséget az eredmények angol nyelvű bemutatására is.
