Sztálinváros, the new socialist heavy industry model town was built from 1950. The Communist Party and the planners considered it as a model for new socialist towns and a new type of socialist men, supposing the two would go together.

The study explores how deviant behaviour flourished opposed to standard socialist ideas and morals, through the life of pubs and the youth subcultures of the model city.
