    Longhurst, Germany and the use of force.qxd 30/06/2004 16:25 Page 118 6 The endurance of conscription Universal conscription is an element of Germany’s security insurance and will continue to be indispensable.1 I believe that conscription is an essential instrument for the Bundeswehr’s integration into society. Therefore, it shall remain.2 The conscription puzzle When considered against the expansion of the Bundeswehr’s remit dur- ing the 1990s and the associated efforts at restructuring its armed forces, Germany’s stalwart commitment to retaining conscription is an area of profound stasis, an anomaly warranting further investigation. In the face of ever-more acute strategic, economic and social challenges to the utility of compulsory military service since the ending of the Cold War, conscription was maintained and developed in Germany in the 1990s by both the CDU- and the SPD-led Government to enhance its rele- vance and thus ensure its survival. Moreover, the issue of conscription’s future, whenever it has been debated in Germany over the past decade, has been hampered by the overwhelming support given to the practice by the Volksparteien, as well as the Ministry of Defence; as a conse- quence, no serious consideration has been given to alternatives to conscription. This situation sets Germany apart from countries across Europe (and beyond) where the trend has been away from the mass-armed force pre- missed on compulsory military service and towards fully professional smaller forces. Germany’s lack of engagement with the issue of con- scription derives from the prevailing belief among the political and mil- itary elite that, stripped of its compulsory military service element, the Kerry Longhurst - 9781526137401 Downloaded from manchesterhive.com at 10/02/2021 05:08:06PM via free access Longhurst, Germany and the use of force.qxd 30/06/2004 16:25 Page 119 The endurance of conscription 119 Bundeswehr would become irretrievably undemocratic and that unde- sirable changes to the form and substance of Germany’s foreign and security policy would follow.

Von zwei ehemals dominieren- den Blæcken sind allein die Vereinigten Staaten als fçhrender weltpolitischer Akteur verblieben. Doch inzwischen haben sich weitere Machtzentren entwickelt, sodass sich ein neues multipo- lares System internationaler Beziehungen bereits abzeichnet. Mit China, Indien, Brasilien sowie weiteren ehemaligen Entwick- lungs- bzw. Schwellenlåndern beanspruchen regionale Fçh- rungsmåchte zunehmend Mitsprache auf der weltpolitischen Bçhne. Drångende Zukunftsfragen, wie die des Klimawandels oder der knapper werdenden Ressourcen, sind nur gemeinsam mit diesen Staaten zu beantworten, die ganz eigene (teilweise ge- gensåtzliche) Interessen verfolgen. Deutschland hat auûenpolitisch zwar an Gewicht gewonnen, scheint aber knapp 20 Jahre nach der Wiedervereinigung noch auf der Suche nach seiner Rolle in dieser unçbersichtlicheren Weltordnung zu sein. Eine gemeinsame Auûenpolitikder Euro- påischen Union ist bisher nur in Ansåtzen vorhanden. Gleichzei- tig setzen die USA verstårkt auf Allianzen auûerhalb der NATO oder der UNO, um ihre Interessen durchzusetzen. Dennoch werden die EU und die USA auch in Zukunft Deutschlands wichtigste auûen- und sicherheitspolitische Partner bleiben. Dass der auûenpolitische Bedeutungszuwachs der Bundesre- publikauch mit gesteigerten Erwartungen an sie verbunden ist, zeigt der Bundeswehreinsatz in Afghanistan, wo die Alliierten auf ein græûeres Engagement der Deutschen drången.
