Germany: Angela Merkel Back in Charge Global Economics & Markets Research Email: [email protected] URL: www.uob.com.sg/research Macro Note Germany: Angela Merkel Back In Charge Monday, 05 March 2018 Germany’s Social Democratic Party (SPD) voted decisively for a coalition with Chancellor Angela Merkel’s conservatives on Sunday, clearing the way for a new government in Europe’s largest economy and ending months of political uncertainty. Suan Teck Kin, CFA In contrast to the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) / Christian Socialist Union (CSU), the SPD Head of Research [email protected] asked their members of which a total 463,723 were eligible to participate in a vote on the coalition treaty via a simple “yes” or “no” decision. The ballot took place between 20 February and 2 Lee Sue Ann March, and the result was published on 4 March, with the “yes” winning 66.02% of the votes Economist [email protected] (78.4% participation rate). From Here… Merkel’s path to chancellorship is now cleared. Federal President FrankWalter Steinmeier will shortly propose Merkel as his candidate for the chancellorship. Merkel needs at least 355 out of 709 votes in the Bundestag to become chancellor again, but given that the CDU/CSU/SPD, with a total of 399 seats, holds a comfortable majority, a defeat for her seems unlikely. Once Merkel is elected on 14 March, she can start nominating her cabinet. Please refer to the next page for Germany’s likely new government going forward. Germany: Angela Merkel Back In Charge Monday, 05 March 2018 1 Page Germany’s Likely New Government Merkel has led Germany for 12 years, and by the end of this new term, she Angela Merkel Chancellor will be tied with fellow CDU predecessors Helmut Kohl and Konrad Adenauer (CDU) in terms of office tenure. Scholz is all but set to be finance minister, and he will likely become vice- Olaf Scholz Finance Minister chancellor as well. Currently the mayor of Hamburg, he is considered the (SPD) high-level SPD politician with the most financial expertise. This is the most-talked about position in the upcoming Cabinet. Sigmar Gabriel would like to continue in his position as head of the Foreign Ministry, Sigmar Gabriel Foreign Minister but after a public spat with former SPD leader Martin Schulz, it looks like (SPD) Gabriel will not be part of the new Cabinet after all. As to who will succeed him? That's still up in the air, but it will be an SPD politician. This will be the first time that the vaguely patriotic "Heimat" concept (roughly Horst Seehofer Minister of the Interior, Heimat and Construction "homeland") is included in a federal minister's domain. Bavaria, however, (CSU) has had a state Heimat Ministry for five years. Von der Leyen has been defense minister since 2013 and has now been Ursula von der Leyen Minister of Defense tapped by Merkel to keep the job. German media has speculated that Von (CDU) der Leyen could be a potential successor to Merkel. Anja Karliczek The ministry's budget was recently increased by EUR11bn to pay for school Minister of Education and Research (CDU) and university improvements, especially with respect to digitalization. Peter Altmaier This would be the first time in more than 50 years that a CDU politician holds Economic and Energy Affairs Minister (CDU) that post. Altmaier is regarded as extremely loyal to the chancellor. The full name of the job Barley has held since June 2017 is minister of family Katarina Barley affairs, senior citizens, women and youth. The trained lawyer may keep the Minister of Family Affairs (SPD) post, but she also may move to a different ministry. In this case, another SPD politician would take her place. Andreas Scheuer Scheuer, considered a close ally of CSU party head Seehofer, could take Minister of Transport and Digital Infrastructure (CSU) over the Transport Ministry. Julia Klöckner Klöckner has been tapped to head the Agriculture Ministry, where she Minister for Food and Agriculture (CDU) worked as parliamentary state secretary from 2009 to 2011. Minister for Economic Cooperation and Development Dorothee Bär (CSU) One of the most likely candidates for development minister is Dorothee Bär. Eva Högl Högl could take over the Labor Ministry from Andrea Nahles, who is now Minister of Labor and Social Affairs (SPD) head of the SPD parliamentary party and designated party leader. Maas was justice minister during the last government's term, and he could Heiko Maas Minister of Justice and Consumer Protection keep the job. However, he is also on the list of candidates for the job of (SPD) foreign minister of minister of labor. Merkel's nominee for health minister stands out: The 37-year-old Jens Spahn Jens Spahn Minister for Health not only represents a new political generation within the CDU, but was also (CDU) heavily critical of Merkel's welcoming policy toward refugees. Germany's current minister for the environment, nature conservation and Barbara Hendricks Minister for the Environment nuclear safety has reached retirement age. But Hendricks may well continue (SPD) on in her job. Helge Braun, who is currently minister of state at the Chancellery, has been Helge Braun Chief of Staff at the Chancellery nominated by Merkel for the promotion to Chancellery head. He would take (CDU) over from Peter Altmaier.

  • Framing Through Names and Titles in German
    Proceedings of the 12th Conference on Language Resources and Evaluation (LREC 2020), pages 4924–4932 Marseille, 11–16 May 2020 c European Language Resources Association (ELRA), licensed under CC-BY-NC Doctor Who? Framing Through Names and Titles in German Esther van den Berg∗z, Katharina Korfhagey, Josef Ruppenhofer∗z, Michael Wiegand∗ and Katja Markert∗y ∗Leibniz ScienceCampus, Heidelberg/Mannheim, Germany yInstitute of Computational Linguistics, Heidelberg University, Germany zInstitute for German Language, Mannheim, Germany fvdberg|korfhage|[email protected] fruppenhofer|[email protected] Abstract Entity framing is the selection of aspects of an entity to promote a particular viewpoint towards that entity. We investigate entity framing of political figures through the use of names and titles in German online discourse, enhancing current research in entity framing through titling and naming that concentrates on English only. We collect tweets that mention prominent German politicians and annotate them for stance. We find that the formality of naming in these tweets correlates positively with their stance. This confirms sociolinguistic observations that naming and titling can have a status-indicating function and suggests that this function is dominant in German tweets mentioning political figures. We also find that this status-indicating function is much weaker in tweets from users that are politically left-leaning than in tweets by right-leaning users. This is in line with observations from moral psychology that left-leaning and right-leaning users assign different importance to maintaining social hierarchies. Keywords: framing, naming, Twitter, German, stance, sentiment, social media 1. Introduction An interesting language to contrast with English in terms of naming and titling is German.

  • H.E. Ms. Angela Merkel, Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany, Addresses 100Th International Labour Conference
    H.E. Ms. Angela Merkel, Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany, Addresses 100th International Labour Conference In the first ever visit of a German Chancellor to the International Labour Organisation (ILO), H.E. Ms. Angela Merkel today addressed the Organization’s annual conference. Speaking to the historic 100th session of the International Labour Conference (ILC) Ms Merkel highlighted the increasing role played by the ILO in closer international cooperation. The G8 and G20 meetings would be “unthinkable without the wealth of experience of this Organisation”, she said, adding that the ILO’s involvement was the only way “to give globalization a form, a structure” (In German with subtitles in English). Transcription in English: Juan Somavia, Director-General, International Labour Organization: “Let me highlight your distinctive sense of policy coherence. Since 2007, you have regularly convened in Berlin the heads of the IMF, World Bank, WTO, OECD and the ILO, and urged us to strengthen our cooperation, and this with a view to building a strong social dimension of globalization and greater policy coherence among our mandates. These dialogues, under your guidance, have been followed up actively by the ILO with important joint initiatives with all of them, whose leaders have all addressed the Governing Body of the ILO. You have been a strong voice for a fairer, more balanced globalization in which much needs to be done by all international organizations.” Angela Merkel, Chancellor of Germany: “Universal and lasting peace can be established only if it is based on social justice.” This is the first sentence of the Constitution of the ILO and I also wish to start my speech with these words, as they clearly express what the ILO is all about and what it is trying to achieve: universal peace.

  • Is There a Case for Rekindled Democracy Assistance in Central
    Is there a case for rekindled democracy assistance in Central and Eastern Europe? International IDEA 25th Anniversary Europe Webinar Thursday 19 November, 11h00-13h00 Background In the two decades following the fall of the Berlin Wall, European and US governments undertook considerable efforts to support reforms for strengthening democratic governance in Central Europe. This support included efforts to foster multi-party politics and institutionalization of political parties, reforming public administration bodies, strengthening parliaments and judicial bodies, supporting independent media and civil society organizations – all vital pillars for a well-functioning democracy. After the Central and Eastern European countries joined the European Union, much of the international democracy assistance ended too, as western donors considered the region to have accomplished the necessary milestones in its democratic transformation and having passed the point of democratic no-return. Democracy’s checks-and-balances, they argued, had made a reversal toward non-democracy practically impossible. Throughout the last decade, this assumption of democratic irreversibility has come under increasing pressure. In 2019, the Global State of Democracy Indices measured that democracy in Central Europe had declined for the fourth consecutive year. In its 2020 report, Freedom House classified Hungary as a hybrid regime, having declined further from its earlier status of a semi-consolidated democracy, and thus breaking the standard of democratic conformity within the European Union, a multilateral body that itself aims to be a supporter of democracy worldwide. Civil society organizations, and more broadly civic space – which are conventionally considered key factors in building societal and institutional resilience against democratic backsliding – have become increasingly targeted.

Collective Identity in Germany An Assessment of National Theories Sean Starkweather “Köln stellt sich quer - Tanz die AfD” by Elke Witzig is licensed under CC BY-SA-4.0 Beginning in the 18th century, the question of what makes a nation has occupied a prominent place in German politics. From the national theories of the 18th-century German Romantics, who identified cultural and ethnic factors as being the key determinants, to modern civic nationalists and postnationalists, who point to liberal civic values and institutions, the importance of collective identity and how it is oriented has remained an important topic for German scholars and policymakers. Using survey research, I assess the accuracy and relevance of these theories in contemporary German society. I find that, contrary to the optimism of modern thinkers, German collective identity remains aligned with the national theories of the Romantics, resulting in ethnic discrimination and heightened fears over the loss of culture through external ideological and ethnic sources.

  • To Chancellor Dr. Angela Merkel C/O Minister of Finance Dr. Wolfgang Schäuble C/O Vice Chancellor Sigmar Gabriel
    To Chancellor Dr. Angela Merkel c/o Minister of Finance Dr. Wolfgang Schäuble c/o Vice Chancellor Sigmar Gabriel Dear Chancellor Merkel, We, the undersigned organisations from [XX] European countries are very grateful for your commitment to the financial transaction tax (FTT) in the framework of Enhanced Coopera- tion. Like you, we are of the opinion that only a broad based tax as specified in the coalition agreement and spelt out in the draft of the European Commission will be sufficiently compre- hensive. However, we are concerned that under the pressure of the finance industry some govern- ments will try to water down the proposal of the Commission. Particularly problematic would be to exempt derivatives from taxation or to tax only some of them. Derivatives represent the biggest share of transactions on the financial markets. Hence, exemptions would lead imme- diately to a substantial reduction of tax revenues. Furthermore, many derivatives are the source of dangerous stability risks and would be misused as instruments for the avoidance of the taxation of shares and bonds. We therefore ask you not to give in to the pressure of the finance industry and to tax deriva- tives as put forward in the draft proposal of the Commission. The primacy of politics over financial markets must be restored. In addition we would like to ask you to send a political signal with regard to the use of the tax revenues. We know that the German budget law does not allow the assignment of tax reve- nues for a specific purpose. However, you yourself have already stated that you could envis- age the revenues being used partly to combat youth unemployment in Europe.
