3. German Foundations


Political Foundations
Instrument to implement
constitution:
The political parties contribute to the
formation of the political will of the
people. [German Basic Law, Art. 21]
Weimar Republic (1918–
1933): Democracy without
democrats
=>civic education
Pluralism: democracy taught
with different views
learning respect for each other

1. Foundation for Freedom 2. Movement for Freedom


Same view
– different duties
party:
develops political objectives and raises
political will to achieve those goals

faction:
turns party will into parliamentary
work
foundation:
research and formulation of policies
capacitates political actors
raises political interest
