  • Between the Ghetto and the Nation: Catholics in the Weimar Republic
    12 Between the Ghetto and the Nation: Catholics in the Weimar Republic JAMES C. HUNT "For the Catholics in the Empire it is like Germany in its foreign policy, onl~' enviers and enemies, only scorn and ridicule," declared t1atthias Erzberger, the young hotspur of political Catholicism, in 1914.1 The dual perception of German isolation and Catholic isolation expressed the dileruna of German Catholics. To be a loyal German and a loyal Catholic--in whatever terms one defined these concepts-- was in a world of enemies both a goal and a burden. The !lOSt-l<apoleonic reorganization of Germany in 1314-15 left the bulk of Catholics as minorities under Protestant rulers. Catholics experienced discriminatory treatment and frequent conflicts between canonical and state l aw, especially in cases of religiously mixed marriage . The Prussian solution t o German unification excluded Austria and left the Catholics a permanent minority at around one-third of the population. The I~ulturkampf (struggle between Church and state) of the lß7Js was an a ttempt to break the power of the Catholic hierarchy and to loosen the ties between Germany and Rome . Chancellor Otto von Bismarck branded the members of the Catholic Center party Reichsfeinde, "enemies of the Reich, " lumping them with Poles and Socialists . The open f-ulturkampf backfired, actually solidifying Catholic unity, but Ca tholics continued to suffer the humiliations of the "little" or "silent Kulturkampf": legal restrictions on Catholic church services and processions; discriminatory state funding of schools, parishes, and ecclesiastical salaries; battles over custodv and religious education in mixed marriages; the requirement in Saxony that school chilJren attend Protestant religious instruction if Catl1olic instruction were not available wit:1 the proviso t!tat~ if they did so until age twelve, they we re then Protestant ~ L Catholics used such expressions as via dolorosa, "exile," or 214 Towards the Holocaust "ghetto"--the term most often used in German Catholic historiography--to characterize their situation.

  • Chapter 8 the Interface Between Subnational and National Levels Of
    8. THE INTERFACE BETWEEN SUBNATIONAL AND NATIONAL LEVELS OF GOVERNMENT – 143 Chapter 8 The interface between subnational and national levels of government Multilevel regulatory governance – that is to say, taking into account the rule-making and rule-enforcement activities of all the different levels of government, not just the national level – is another core element of effective regulatory management. The OECD’s 2005 Guiding Principles for Regulatory Quality and Performance “encourage Better Regulation at all levels of government, improved co-ordination, and the avoidance of overlapping responsibilities among regulatory authorities and levels of government”. It is relevant to all countries that are seeking to improve their regulatory management, whether they are federations, unitary states or somewhere in between. In many countries local governments are entrusted with a large number of complex tasks, covering important parts of the welfare system and public services such as social services, health care and education, as well as housing, planning and building issues, and environmental protection. Licensing can be a key activity at this level. These issues have a direct impact on the welfare of businesses and citizens. Local governments within the boundaries of a state need increasing flexibility to meet economic, social and environmental goals in their particular geographical and cultural setting. At the same time, they may be taking on a growing responsibility for the implementation of EC regulations. All of this requires a pro active consideration of: • The allocation/sharing of regulatory responsibilities at the different levels of government (which can be primary rule-making responsibilities; secondary rule-making responsibilities based on primary legislation, or the transposition of EC regulations; responsibilities for supervision/enforcement of national or subnational regulations; or responsibilities for service delivery).
