Slovenia During the Oil Crisis (1979−1985): from Odd-Even System to the Introduction of Petrol Coupons

They have occured regularly in the past, often as a result of political or military conflicts in the Middle East. The story we present here takes us back to the 1980s and brings together archival documents and material held by the National Museum of Contemporary History of Slovenia.
