This project deals with the jurist, Prussian civil servant, politician and publicist Kuno von Westarp (1864-1945). As a key figure of German conservatism during the period from Wilhelmine Germany up to National Socialism, he exerted significant influence on political positions and organizations at critical junctures in the history of conservatism during this time. The aim of the project is to examine Westarps impact on the political culture of conservatism. This will be done by combining a biographical approach with an analysis of grand themes of the development of conservatism. Next to his role as a Reichstag deputy and leading party politician of the German National Peoples Party, the focus is on Westarps close connections and political communication with the associations (Verbände), informal and organized groups and important political figures of the heterogeneous political Right. The extensive personal records of Westarp are an important basis of this studyThe study argues that the development of Westarps positions was quite unlike the conservative radicalization which has been proposed by recent studies with respect to the political Right during the Weimar Republic. His fundamental rejection of the republic gave way to governmental moderation. However, though one may detect some elements of Tory conservatism, it can be demonstrated that his political development does not coincide with this or any other category that has been proposed, such as Vernunftrepublikanismus. There existed remarkable continuities with respect to his positions on monarchism and his opposition against democracy which limited his ability to adapt to the republican state. At the same time his intellectual development of adaptation isolated him from the radical opposition of other conservatives and National Socialists. Thus the study will stress his peculiar civic, staatsbürgerlich accentuated national conservatism.

该项目涉及法学家，普罗斯安公务员，政治和公关人员Kuno von Westarp（1864-1945）。作为在威廉·德国（Wilhelmine Dermany）到民族社会主义期间，德国保守主义的关键人物，他对这段时间里保守主义历史上关键关键的政治立场和组织产生了重大影响。该项目的目的是检查韦斯塔普对保守主义政治文化的影响。这将通过将传记方法与对保守主义发展的宏大主题进行分析来完成。在他担任德国民族人民党的副主席和领先的政党党的角色之后，重点是韦斯塔普斯（Westarps）与协会（Verbände），非正式和有组织的团体以及非均质政治权利的重要政治人物的紧密联系和政治交流。韦斯塔普的广泛个人记录是这项研究的重要基础。研究论证认为，韦斯塔普斯职位的发展与保守的激进化完全不同，这是最近关于魏玛共和国期间政治权利的研究提出的。他对共和国的根本拒绝让位于政府节制。但是，尽管人们可能会发现保守派保守主义的某些要素，但可以证明他的政治发展与诸如vernunftrepublikanismus之类的这一类别或任何其他类别并不相吻合。关于他在君主主义和反对民主的立场方面，存在着显着的连续性，这限制了他适应共和党国家的能力。同时，他对适应的智力发展使他与其他保守派和民族社会主义者的激进反对派隔离了。这项研究将强调他奇特的公民斯塔斯布里奇（Staatsbürgerlich）强调了民族保守主义。
