 abstract = {Der Verfasser untersucht den Zusammenhang von traditionellem Wahlverhalten und Parteienstruktur in den Bezirken Aurich und Oldenburg im nordwestlichen Niedersachsen. Im Mittelpunkt des Interesses steht besonders die Frage, warum in protestantischen und bäuerlichen Gebieten die traditionellen Wähler liberaler Parteien in der Endphase der Weimarer Republik zur NSDAP überwechselten, um dann von 1947 bis Ende der sechziger Jahre wiederum liberal zu wählen. Er kommt zu dem Ergebnis, daß das untersuchte Datenmaterial signifikante Unterschiede im Zusammenwirken von Sozialstruktur und Wahlverhalten in städtischen und ländlichen Gebieten ersichtlich macht, wobei insbesondere für größere, weiterentwickelte Regionen das Zusammenwirken von lokalen und regionalen Besonderheiten, regionalen politischen Traditionen und lokalen Kandidaten von Bedeutung ist. (RS)'Ever since German electoral politics attracted enough money and manpower the survey researchers have taken over almost the entire fields. Social scientists applying political ecology or other techniques of historical electoral research, e.g. von Schuckmann, Sahner and Troitzsch, have been a scattered minority. The data available for statistical analysis are election results and census data collected by the various statistical offices. Broken down to administrative units at the local level (urban and rural districts) the data demonstrate significant differences of social structure and political behaviour. Processing of machine readable data allows for larger regions, more sophisticated techniques and reveals contextual factors most commonly disregarded by survey researchers: sub-national cleavages, regional political traditions and local political personnel. Subject of the study presented here is voting behaviour in the northwestern part of Lower Saxony, the former administrative districts of Aurich and Oldenburg, from the 19th century up to the present.'
