| Summary: | In the spring of 1989, when the National Democratic Party of Germany became part of the town council of Frankfurt/Main, the representatives of the other parties were confronted with an extreme right-wing parliamentary group in which two women stood out : Ursula Gerhold and Christine Ringmayer. Their dissident political practice, their refusal to accept conventions and their insolence showed a stark contrast with the good manners of the other representatives ; by systematically challenging the democratic consensus, they destabilized the parliamentary process. This article sheds light on how these women used their nonconformity – whether through the defense of reactionary positions, outrageous rhetoric or deliberately inappropriate behaviour – to assert themselves as women, a fortiori as far-right women, in a parliamentary institution that tried to keep them on the margins by any means. |
