The original project examines from a comparative and historical perspective the perception of political parties in both the English and German political philosophy during the long 19th century (1789-1914). Thereby the focus is on the reception of political parties in the history of political thought between Edmund Burke and Robert Michels.In addition to the perceptions of parties in Germany and Great Britain this extension proposal seeks to examine the development of the party discourse in the USA at three key turning points of American party democracy during the 19th century. Hence, our approach is extended to an important transatlantic perspective. Three questions are of particular interest:1. Which relevance does the early discourse on political parties provide for our current debates on parties and party systems? (Archives and Arsenal) 2. What were the similarities and differences in the evaluation of political parties in the USA compared to Germany and Great Britain during the 19th century? (Comparison) 3. How did American ideas influence British and German theories on political parties in the 19th century (and vice versa)? (Knowledge transfer)Was there indeed a general anti-party sentiment in 19th century political thought? On the contrary, initial results of the ongoing study give reason for a revision of this long-standing prejudice in favour of a more benign view on the concept of political parties. In fact, a modern and elaborate theory and sociology of political parties is already to be found 200 years ago.

原项目从比较和历史的角度考察了在漫长的19世纪（1789-1914）中，英国和德国政治哲学对政党的看法。因此，重点是埃德蒙·伯克和罗伯特·米歇尔斯之间的政治思想史上对政党的接受。除了对德国和英国政党的看法之外，这一扩展提案还试图在19世纪美国政党民主的三个关键转折点上审视美国政党话语的发展。因此，我们的方法扩展到一个重要的跨大西洋视角。有三个问题特别令人感兴趣：1。早期关于政党的论述与我们当前关于政党和政党制度的辩论有何关联？（档案及兵工厂）19世纪，美国对政党的评价与德国和英国相比，有哪些异同？(比较)3。19世纪，美国的思想如何影响英国和德国的政党理论（反之亦然）？（知识转移）在19世纪的政治思想中确实存在普遍的反党情绪吗？相反，正在进行的研究的初步结果表明，有理由修正这种长期存在的偏见，赞成对政党概念持更温和的看法。事实上，一个现代的、详尽的政党理论和社会学早在200年前就已经出现了。
