This analysis demonstrates how different genders, incompatible conceptions of nation, history, and regional origins, as well as experiences of mutual frustration eclipsed their ideological commonalities and counteracted against the 'emotional regimes' of 'the West' in the Cold War. It breaks new ground in several respects. First, it does not examine strong feelings that blotted out all others but rather a range of more ambivalent and nuanced emotions. Second, it links the themes of gender and feeling by enquiring about the male or female manifestations and attributions of certain emotions. Third, it focuses on not only men and women at the top but considers their entourages as either amplifiers or 'shock absorbers' of the leaders' feelings. Finally, it explores the scope and limits of the notion that the Cold War was an 'emotional regime'.}, language = {en} } @book{OPUS4-59492, title = {Parlamentarismus in Deutschland von 1815 bis zur Gegenwart}, series = {Schriftenreihe / Bundeszentrale f{\"u}r politische Bildung}, volume = {10975}, journal = {Schriftenreihe / Bundeszentrale f{\"u}r politische Bildung}, editor = {Biefang, Andreas and Geppert, Dominik Nicolas and Recker, Marie-Luise and Wirsching, Andreas}, edition = {Sonderausgabe f{\"u}r die Bundeszentrale f{\"u}r Politische Bildung}, publisher = {Bundeszentrale f{\"u}r politische Bildung}, address = {Bonn}, isbn = {978-3-7425-0975-8}, pages = {472}, year = {2023}, abstract = {Parlamentarismus bezeichnet die Idee der Repr{\"a}sentation Regierter durch gew{\"a}hlte Abgeordnete.
