Era of Stagnation
The
Era of Stagnation
(,
Stagnation Period
, also called the
Brezhnevian Stagnation
) was a period of negative economic, political, and social effects in the
Soviet Union
, dubbed by a generic term "stagnation", which began
during the rule of Leonid Brezhnev (1964–1982)
and continued under
Yuri Andropov
(1982–1984) and
Konstantin Chernenko
(1984–1985). This period ended when
Mikhail Gorbachev
introduced his policies of
glasnost
,
perestroika
,
uskoreniye
, and
demokratizatsiya
. However the efforts of Gorbachev failed and
the Soviet Union collapsed
in 1991.
