Am Beispiel der Tschechoslowakei und der DDR fragt der Band nach der Gewährleistung von Ordnung und Sicherheit sowie nach abweichendem Verhalten bzw. Kriminalität im Staatssozialismus.

English summary: The contributions of this anthology are concerned, on the one hand, with the theories, strategies and practices employed to ensure order and security; on the other hand, with the existence of deviance and delinquency in state socialism. Specifically, they look at the role of the police and their depiction in films, the penal system as well as youth and white-collar crime, and other forms of deviant behavior. The main emphasis is put on presumed or truly “nonpolitically” motivated violations of norms or laws as well as on how such crimes were prevented and punished. These are very important themes when discussing the social history of state socialism. German description: Die Beschaftigung mit Ordnung und Sicherheit sowie abweichendem Verhalten und Kriminalitat ist fur die Analyse staatssozialistischer Gesellschaften in mehrfacher Hinsicht Gewinn bringend: Staatliche und gesellschaftliche Vorstellungen von Moral und Gesetzestreue konnen dabei ebenso diskutiert werden wie die Grenzen der Toleranz gegenuber Normverletzungen. Zudem lassen sich Hinweise auf das Mass an gesellschaftlicher Stabilitat der Regime gewinnen. Der Band fragt am Beispiel der Tschechoslowakei und der DDR zum einen nach staatlichen Vorstellungen, Strategien und Praktiken bezuglich der Gewahrleistung von Ordnung und Sicherheit, zum anderen nach Formen von abweichendem Verhalten bzw. Straftaten im Staatssozialismus. Erortert werden dabei die Rolle der Polizei, ihre Darstellung in Spiel- und Fernsehfilmen, das Gefangniswesen sowie Jugendkriminalitat, Wirtschaftskriminalitat und weitere Formen devianten Verhaltens. So stehen vordergrundig oder tatsachlich “unpolitisch” motivierte Norm- und Gesetzesverletzungen sowie deren Pravention und Ahndung zur Diskussion – und damit wichtige Themen der Gesellschaftsgeschichte des Staatssozialismus.
