When the Music Stopped - a podcast by CEU

What did Nicolae Ceausescu have in common with Romania's most famous radio DJ, Cornel Chiriac? In Episode 1 of'Five Senses of Austerity'we explore this and how it relates to the invasion of Prague in 1968. This was a period before austerity, the so-called'golden age'of Romanian socialism. And yet, it is a period in which austerity was already slowly creeping in, especially through the politics surrounding'Western'rock music.
