English summary: Leonid I. Brezhnev's period of office was characterized by a contradiction: on the one hand, the political leadership wanted to establish a new phase of stability in order to distinguish itself from the Khrushchev era. Many contemporaries therefore remember the Brezhnev era as a "golden age" of rising living standards. On the other hand, Soviet society was also experiencing an acceleration of social change where patterns of legitimization and economic and political control constantly failed. During the late 1970s people therefore began to converse about the shortcomings of the Soviet system. This anthology explores the 'hyperstability' that characterized this period by means of case studies of large-scale projects, urban planning concepts, dissidents, artists and foreign policy experts. German description: Die Amtsjahre Leonid I. Breznevs pragte ein Widerspruch: Auf der einen Seite wollte die politische Fuhrung in Abgrenzung von Nikita Chruscev eine neue Phase der Stabilitat einlauten. In der Erinnerung vieler Zeitgenossen gilt die Breznev-Ara darum als "Goldenes Zeitalter" steigender Lebensstandards. Auf der anderen Seite fand sich die sowjetische Gesellschaft in einer Phase beschleunigten sozialen Wandels wieder, in der Legitimationsmuster, okonomische und politische Steuerung versagten. Ende der 1970er Jahre etablierte sich daher eine Kommunikation uber die Defizite der sowjetischen Ordnung. Der Sammelband thematisiert die fur diese Zeit pragende "Hyperstabilitat"in Fallbeispielen zu Grossprojekten, stadtplanerischen Konzepten, Dissidenten, Kunstlern und aussenpolitischen Experten.
