Résumé anglais Dwaine Marvick : Party cadres in Germany. This essay describes a systematic interview study of 365 Munich party cadres ? their activities in and perspectives toward the September 1965 election campaign. Both city-level SPD and CSU party leaders and spokesmen and district-level party functionaries and activists were studied, and a cross section survey of the Munich electorate was also included. Attention was first directed to milieu determinants ? the electoral topography of each campaign arena, the organizational difficulties in sustaining control and communications, the constraints on strategy accepted by rival contenders as « rules of the game ». Next, some measures of cadre performance are considered, both those affecting a party's internal flexibility and those characterizing a party's electoral impact. Finally, ideological militancy was shown to cause activists in varying degree to feel psychologically « distant » from the electorate, from daily associates, and from party colleagues.
