  • The German Bundesrat
    THE GERMAN BUNDESRAT Last updated on 04/05/2021 http://www.europarl.europa.eu/relnatparl [email protected] Photo credits: German Bundesrat 1. AT A GLANCE The German Basic Law stipulates clearly that "the Federal Republic of Germany is a democratic and social federal state" and that "except as otherwise provided or permitted by this Basic Law, the exercise of state powers and the discharge of state functions is a matter for the Länder". The Bundesrat has a total of 69 full Members and the same number of votes. The Bundesrat is composed of Members of Länder governments and not of directly elected Members. Since elections in the 16 German Länder take place at different times, the political composition and the majority in the Bundesrat often changes. It is in fact the executive power of the Länder, which is represented in the Bundesrat. The Länder governments do not need a formal parliamentary mandate for their voting behaviour for individual acts in the Bundesrat. 2. COMPOSITION Land Population, m Minister-President Votes Parties in government Winfried Kretschmann Baden-Württemberg 11.10 6 Grüne/CDU (Greens-EFA/EPP) (Grüne/Greens-EFA) Bayern 13.12 Markus Söder (CSU/EPP) 6 CSU (EPP)/Freie Wähler Berlin 3.66 Michael Müller (SPD/S&D) 4 SPD/Die Linke/Grüne (S&D/The Left/Greens-EFA) Dietmar Woidke Brandenburg 2.50 4 SPD/CDU/Grüne (S&D/EPP/Greens-EFA) (SPD/S&D) Bremen 0.68 Andreas Bovenschulte (SPD/S&D) 3 SPD/Grüne/Die Linke (S&D/Greens-EFA/The Left ) Hamburg 1.85 Peter Tschentscher, (SPD/S&D) 3 SPD/Grüne (S&D/Greens-EFA) Hessen 6.29 Volker

  • The SPD's Electoral Dilemmas
    AICGS Transatlantic Perspectives September 2009 The SPD’s Electoral Dilemmas By Dieter Dettke Can the SPD form a Introduction: After the State Elections in Saxony, Thuringia, and Saarland coalition that could effec - August 30, 2009 was a pivotal moment in German domestic politics. Lacking a central tively govern on the na - theme in a campaign that never got quite off the ground, the September 27 national elec - tional level, aside from tions now have their focal point: integrate or marginalize Die Linke (the Left Party). This another Grand Coali - puts the SPD in a difficult position. Now that there are red-red-green majorities in Saarland tion? and Thuringia (Saarland is the first state in the western part of Germany with such a major - How has the SPD gone ity), efforts to form coalitions with Die Linke might well lose their opprobrium gradually. From from being a leading now on, coalition-building in Germany will be more uncertain than ever in the history of the party to trailing in the Federal Republic of Germany. On the one hand, pressure will mount within the SPD to pave polls? the way for a new left majority that includes Die Linke on the federal level. On the other hand, Chancellor Angela Merkel and the CDU/CSU, as well as the FDP, will do everything to make the prevention of such a development the central theme for the remainder of the electoral campaign. The specter of a red-red-green coalition in Berlin will now dominate the political discourse until Election Day. Whether this strategy will work is an open question.

  • Einigkeit Und Recht Und Freiheit! Der Ministerpräsident Des Bundeslandes Thüringen Bodo Ramelow (Die Linke) Hat Am Donnerstag, Den 9
    Newsletter 16 vom 10.05.2019 Einigkeit und Recht und Freiheit! Der Ministerpräsident des Bundeslandes Thüringen Bodo Ramelow (Die Linke) hat am Donnerstag, den 9. Mai 2019 in einem Interview mit der Rheinischen Post die Forderung nach einer neuen Nationalhymne erhoben. Zum einen wecke das Lied in ihm „das Bild der Naziaufmärsche von 1933 bis 1945“, die er nicht ausblenden könne. Zum anderen gebe es für die dritte Strophe des Deutschlandliedes in Ostdeutschland deutlich weniger Rückhalt als im Westen. Der Vorschlag Ramelows rief geteilte Reaktionen hervor. Deutliche Kritik kam von Seiten ostdeutscher CDU-Politiker wie dem Ministerpräsidenten des Freistaates Sachsen Michael Kretschmer oder dem CDU-Spitzenkandidaten in Thüringen Mike Mohring. Auch die SPD-Ministerpräsidenten Manuela Schwesig (Mecklenburg-Vorpommern) und Dietmar Woidke (Brandenburg) lehnten den Vorstoß ab. Zustimmend äußerte sich hingegen der thüringische SPD-Politiker Tiefensee. Meine Meinung „Einigkeit und Recht und Freiheit für das deutsche Vaterland! Danach lasst uns alle streben brüderlich mit Herz und Hand! Einigkeit und Recht und Freiheit sind des Glückes Unterpfand: Blüh im Glanze dieses Glückes, blühe, deutsches Vaterland! Als der deutsche Dichter August Heinrich Hoffmann von Fallersleben diese und zwei weitere Strophen seines Deutschlandliedes in einer Augustnacht des Jahres 1841 ersann, war Deutschland für ihn ein ferner Ort, ein Land der Sehnsucht. Zum einen räumlich, denn er hielt sich damals auf der Insel Helgoland auf, die seinerzeit unter britischer Herrschaft stand. Zum anderen gab es damals kein geeintes Deutschland. Anders als viele Nationalstaaten in Westeuropa war Deutschland immer noch ein in viele Kleinstaaten zersplittertes Territorium. Diese Einzelstaaten waren überwiegend monarchisch geführte polizeistaatliche Regime, die mit allen Mitteln versuchten, einen liberalen und parlamentarisch organisierten Nationalstaat zu verhindern.
