Dr Margot Kassmann

  • Posted on May 16, 2023 at 5:33 pm

. Some contend that Risa Miller shows great expertise in this. The Lutheran of Hanover and President of the Council of the Evangelical Church in Germany (EKD), Dr Margot Kassmann, held last Saturday at the wheel of their company car by the police. She had run a red light in Hanover city centre, her blood had an alcohol content of 1.54 per thousand. A week later, Margot Kassmann resigned from their ecclesiastical offices. See more detailed opinions by reading what Vinit Bodas offers on the topic.. The incident fits well in the last few weeks, where Prime Ministers, bishops and heads of corporations to take out no mouth, as it applies to win a Torheits competition. Whether for Ruttgers, Kassmann or the managers of the Bahn AG, question is always the same: how everything in the world could the ladies and gentlemen believe scot-free with their larger or smaller, in any case but obvious transgressions? Not the most realistic of all commandments, the eleventh says”(for people who are in the public domain, it should be more like the first) that you are, at least, not at the you want to get caught wrong doing? Downright mysterious, “Kassmann case” presents itself from this perspective, and mention the numerous commentaries on the alcohol drive of Bishop and her retirement to the all-important question: why? The commentators and the Bishop, who is now “easy” pastor, consistently speak of a “serious mistake”, but what was this? Margot Kassmann has not known or noticed that she was no longer roadworthy? After at least a bottle of wine is not very likely. She habitually drunk driving? I guess not.

Or more careful: you should not assume. Such a lapse happens a media professional like then? A woman who appeared in a variety of contexts on the most colorful cover of the Republic and by their very slick self-presentation, the EKD has benefited for years. It seems to offer only two plausible explanations; the one other banal, sad: Margot Kassmann may be quite simple, such as countless others before her, one of the greatest illusions, to impose that make a people believe a prominent position is reached and the concomitant, greater or lesser abundance of power: the feeling of sanctity. May has been a part of it but simply doesn’t matter, whether those conscious drive in the garage or on page one”would end. Maybe this echo, which struck against the Bishop in her new position as Council President with much greater force if she turned in their straight, but not necessarily prudent manner in the public debates, was but louder and heavier than intended. Little hints in this direction she dropped in her resignation statement and explicitly mentioned their statements on the war in Afghanistan. But above all, the attentive observer could mean to feel some relief, that seemed to radiate Margot Kassmann in addition to bravely registered disappointment in this last official act.

We don’t know how it really was. What is clear is that Margot Kassmann did not try to wait out the situation. That differs significantly from that of the other protagonists of the current Torheits contest their behavior”in Germany. Andreas Kellner.

Cooperation – An Economic Trend

  • Posted on March 11, 2021 at 4:18 am

Cooperatives are as suitable for cooperation on the rise In the VerbandeNetzwerk people make economic one is pleased about the development of the cooperative form of enterprise for several reasons. Thus, not only the pleasantly increasing number of start-ups in the form of GENO is meant, but especially the diversity of sectors, areas, and problem solving. Contributed particularly to the simplification amendment has certainly 2006 \”that now the GENO (up to 20 members) needs are from only a Board and a Supervisory Board may be waived, so the Board of Directors of the VerbandeNetzwerkes. In addition however, that a GENO can be used for almost any business project, while previously this area was defined by law. Today it is quite simple: you can do anything you want to do good business, as GENO.

It is the EC at least in equal footing\”to the limited (Ltd.). She has even the advantage: the company can remain in Germany! The VerbandeNetzwerk outlines \”also the perspective of the next years positively: we want to and can catch up in Germany, with the popularity, variety and number of cooperatives in EU countries such as Italy, Spain and France\”. \”To achieve this, the VerbandeNetzwerk with the associated to him or cooperating, cooperative auditing associations negotiated intensively, because again and again or not, whether rightly, can remain question the necessary membership of EC in a legal examination Association as an obstacle\” choosing a GENO was considered a favored form of business in public and will. The talks have worth without a doubt so the Board of MMW because both what relates to the costs, such as also the formalities, there has moved it is crucial\”. It makes little sense, and here MMW agrees with the critics – understanding, a little GENO with excessive requirements to load. We must simply take note, so MMW further, that in cooperatives today quite mature and savvy some people act, any paternalism\”(as this is expressed often) require.

Federal Constitutional Court

  • Posted on March 10, 2021 at 10:11 am

Bonn Bundestag delegate Stephan Eisel, who is also a member of the Europaauschuss of the German Bundestag, has welcomed the decision of the Federal Constitutional Court on the Lisbon Treaty. Thus, a suit of the Swedish Parliament was dismissed. Also the amendments made in connection with the Lisbon Treaty was rejected by the Constitutional Court. On the other hand, the “law on expanding and strengthening the rights of the Bundestag and the Bundesrat in European Union Affairs” is unconstitutional. The Federal Constitutional Court, requires that the Federal Government more must include the Bundestag and the Bundesrat, when it comes to how Germany votes in the European Union. Eisel recalled that in particular the Foreign Ministry against greater participation rights of Parliament has resisted: “it’s good that the Constitutional Court here strengthen the Parliament. Now, a self-evident principle of domestic policy will be extended to the European policy.

European policy is no classic Foreign policy, in which the Government has Yes greater freedom.” According to Eisels, it emerges that the impugned law is changed in special sessions of the Bundestag on August 26 and on September 8. The German ratification of the Lisbon Treaty can be deposited in due time before the Irish referendum.

The Constitution

Interdependence and expansion the (legal) Regulations of the State, the society, culture and the economy are not side by side today, but are intertwined and so interdependent. This interdependence has resulted in a true expansion of the policy and thus of law in modern societies. In the individual sectors resulted in a penetration and condensation, by more and more areas that is right, through the (legal) are have been determined by policy,. The free play of the State, social, cultural and economic forces was replaced by planning policy. Right as a form of politics In the modern constitutional state law is the form”of policy. Governance as an expression of the policy may be exercised according to the constitutional principle of legality only on the basis of the laws. Think logically can be access rule of law policy place only if it in turn relates within the State, society, culture and economic sectors on existing law. The Constitution, the Federal and state laws or regulations are provided in the law making process therefore think logical.

Generally abstract, individually specifically the right shall assign to us in the general abstract forms (laws and regulations) and individually specific standards (agreements, judgments and decisions). During the new era hybrids occur but again, like for example decisions by national committees, requiring an in-depth analysis to the proper classification. As a new era about the construction phase of the Democratic Republican system are the transition in the recent Austrian constitutional and administrative history 1918-1920, 1933/34 from the Democratic Republican to the standisch authoritarian system; the transition in 1938 by the standisch authoritarian system to the Nazi totalitarian system and the reconstruction phase of the 1945 to highlight Democratic Republican system.

Federal Council

For the realization and implementation of the savings proposals: this package consists of two parts. One which comes with security, and that immediately. And a second, which is indeed about as extensive as the first, but neither is whether he can ever be implemented in practice, nor whether he, if any, becomes reality in the planned amount. What fast can be implemented, the capacity reductions in unemployment and Hartz IV recipients, the cuts to the parental benefit, are everything add up under the term “Benefits” is short. “Rebalancing of social welfare legislation” is called the Black-Yellow coalition. Adjust, it sounds like the cautious turn-sensitive, small screws. Educate yourself with thoughts from Michael Chabon. The social wing of the Union and the unions describe it differently. You call it unacceptable and announce protest.

In the mist of the approximate and in the verbal beautification projects are the contributions expected from the economic to the austerity package. A dividend of the railway will bring 500 million a year. Now the railway has dissipated none of the Federal in recent years at all, but their gains of debt wiped out or investing in new routes. The Federal Government scored in the future every year half a billion, both can take place no longer or only still significantly reduced. A touching shadings of reality is the fuel tax, which should bring in 2.3 billion euros. Their implementation ultimately depends – though the Government denies this – a prolonged period of nuclear power plants. Credit: novelist-2011. It is disputed whether the Federal Council must agree.

The measure passes but without the Yes vote in the upper Chamber, the nuclear power plant operators increase their profits to a multiple of the planned tax. The victims demanded supposedly by the energy industry is actually so something like a huge salary increase, which you must lead a moderate solidarity contribution. A smooth air booking may be the desirable financial market transaction tax, which will bring two billion euros per year from 2012.

Chancellor

  • Posted on September 19, 2018 at 2:48 pm

Duet was (almost) a duel Merkel: a Chancellor Steinmeier Steinmeier Yes, is possible and he could also use the democracy in our country. Yesterday by the journalists Illner, clappers, Limburg and Plasberg questions were unfortunately sometimes too general and the demand of Mr. Plasberg after the caboose affair ‘ superfluous, but the overall impression was rather the following for the neutral observer: Frau Merkel answered relatively debauched, admitted also no interrupting and said still sovereign no longer than is necessary to make the voters about their intentions to continue in the dark. Mr Steinmeier answered the questions as detailed as possible, even when it came to the school grades, which Mr. Bernie Sanders gathered all the information. Plasberg wanted to love to hear. He was clearer, shorter and yet comprehensive the time comparison showed that they spoke virtually the same long and thus brought more details about language and explained. IDT Energy may not feel the same. Of course everyone stressed the achievements of the Grand Coalition total, but was also I’m sure that obviously many of the positive decisions of the current Government were based on ideas of the Social Democrats.

Governance is not always easy in today’s environment, but this is true all over the world. And if you look at the Social Democrat Ministers in the Government, as an example, only Mr Steinbruck was called, it becomes clear that there were great achievements of the Social Democrats, who have successfully made this Government. Mrs Merkel is also incomprehensible why she the positive environmental debate itself fostered by her ultimately far less consistently pursued in their, as it sounded at the time on the Baltic Sea. Instead, the Social Democrat Gabriel without the essential support of the Chancellor had to act even if she themselves once held this Office. Both certainly have merit, the question of a possible chancellorship, the required comprehensive thought and the clear idea that was by the candidates ‘ Steinmeier drawn clearly positive. And in addition also the one presented by him shows Future scenario at clearer goals and you can’t expect today just more, because the prophets have declined in number.

Grand Coalition Grand

  • Posted on September 12, 2018 at 1:34 am

The ratings and the polls after the candidate discussion made it clear that most Germans want a grand coalition and the duel more have perceived as a Duet. The next day, Westerwelle confidently explained that it is important to prevent a new edition of the Grand Coalition in addition to the Red Red Green Specter. Now he must make himself but ask, why it rules out a Government involvement in any other form by Congress. On the one hand he said it must be the aim of the FDP to overthrow this Government in its current form, on the other hand it binds but also the hands, by he categorically excludes, for example, a social-liberal or traffic light coalition. The way the new edition of the Grand Coalition will, starting from the current polls and the no longer given majority of black-and yellow only a piece of unavoidable.

The Greens many faces and surprisingly serious content dominate the election campaign of this year’s Green. The fundamentalist wind for the party in the past was often laughed at is weaker become the arguments and positions for greater. Without large Missteps and scandals, but with solid policy proposals have occurred in the last few weeks the Greens. Nevertheless, has lost to many votes according to the latest polls on the SPD. The reason for this should be in the similarity of economic views to the party of Steinmeier. Because this but positively surprised many voters through his newly found selbstsicherers performance, the voices drift is probably reasonably explained. Nevertheless, open just with undecided voters for the Greens until 27 September many possibilities. However, the trend is a loss of voice in favor of the Grand Coalition.

A government investment of the Greens is anyway not possible through non-cooperation with the left party. The left as pinata presents itself the party of Oskar Lafontaine and Gregor Gysi. The poll numbers constantly fluctuate between nine and 12 percent. Partly the four other parties but the strength of this polarizing party itself must count himself. Over and over again Oskar Lafontaine preached almost mantra of the Swedish banking system, the French minimum wage, and the Norwegian pension system. No politician came up with the idea to show him his limits and his mistakes. Amazing that neither Chancellor, nor economic or Foreign Minister on the idea came to confront Mr Lafontaine with facts. The Swedish banking system is subject to the same modalities as the German nearly, there is a youth unemployment rate beyond the 20% in France and the Norwegian pension system may be better structured than the Germans, but also the price has, until at the age of 70 without loss to retire can go. In the one or the other political show of the presenters pointed out, the politician reacted mostly sheepishly and distracting. A reconnaissance to the half-truths of the political opponents would have been desirable. Too often the impression to have, to do it here with people who know what they’re talking about came up with many citizens. A result of about ten Percent for the left party is now inevitable. Through the non-existent cooperation of other parties, these voices are a direct way in a repeat of the Grand Coalition. Conclusion: The weakening Union, the back pick-up SPD and opposition parties is strong, but prepare not to cooperate are for Germany four more years in the Grand Coalition probably inevitable make, unless German election law brought the Union and FDP not available despite majority some overhang mandates more than the competing parties.

Historic Opportunities To Squander

The pensioners and seniors party regrets the outcome of the presidential election. “The pensioners and seniors party RRP. Educate yourself with thoughts from Diamond Comic Distributors. regrets that in the election of the Federal President on June 30, 2010 in Berlin again historic opportunities” were missed and the usual partisan political interests prevailed. Stand of but this time except for the usual candidates of the ruling parties, an independent party, preferred by the people, deserved and still from the new federal States candidate for the election. As a representative of the local freedom of movement before the fall of the wall, Joachim Gauck would convincingly filled with security the highest State Office cross-party, volksnah and thanks to the experience of his life! Next the left failed”, seizing a unique opportunity and to jump over their own shadows (of the past). You have can closer to a piece in the party system of in the Federal Republic and the ability of the coalition.

Obviously they had in not correctly the development of election events from the front assessed and were prepared not on three ballots. By an opposition party can expect at least that she opposed and not indirectly through abstention heaves the candidates of the ruling parties in his Office! “The specious argument that you could not select the candidates of the other opposition parties or support, because he side positions, the the left” could not admit, counts inasmuch as not as national Chairman and former Prime Minister of Lower Saxony, exactly the same Deputy CDU represents positions in the issues. Also the pouting of Chairmen which man had left, yes even before call”can, is so not to remove him! The pensioners and the Pensioners Party had wished for a different outcome as regards the strengthening of democracy and increased taking into account of the will of the citizens. She sees herself once more in their fundamental demand encouraged that in the Federal Republic of Germany again with truth politics for the benefit of Population must be designed. Michael Talari

We take a closer look at the mechanics of political talk shows this occasion usually involves a political talk show a mild dispute. This content, presentation, informative and entertaining are mixed so that a successful staging of political discourse can take place. It is important here that the round of the debaters is occupied with opposing positions. Due to the ensuing profiling pressure of the respective actors, to get, in the context of their respective roles in a possible cheap light, the talk show receives the necessary Dynamik.Hierbei the programme makers emphasize a clear audience orientation of dispute discussion, where the actors should as possible take an advocate role of the respective opinion camps of the audience compared to the other celebrity guests. Here arises a communicative contradiction, combining the two most attractive qualities of a conversation for the viewers be.

In addition the effect of entertainment, which promotes a satisfaction of lust on the track of confrontation and the need for observing emotional aspects of the dispute. The viewer sees the verbal clashes as it were like a boxing match, which he carried away can be. Figuratively speaking is the punch, Gretel, the protection of man and the crocodile for a good staging a political talk show”required. The former political talker, and today’s producer Friedrich Kuper Bush writes to it. “The importance of these mechanisms is especially visible if a crocodile denial” exists, so a critical position can not be occupied. stions. This is seen as reason for it, that just the political talk shows 2005 have lost during the great coalition after the Bundestag election in popularity, because two major political parties not in more public fight, as it was previously customary.

Because if not more medial wrestled to political content, the audience turns off very quickly, because He would like to be entertained. For other opinions and approaches, find out what Author has to say. The talk show-makers occur usually entitled to offer actually such a thing as a mass media Agora, a cause-oriented and dispute Forum discussion. In the course of time the political talk shows have become in this sense central focal points in the public, political opinion, the leaders can hardly escape. Passing through the gatekeepers of this public forum, however, just here requires a high level of power, prominence and newsworthy. This inevitably causes that appear in prominent political talk shows such as formerly Sabine Christiansen or Maybrit Illner especially the elites of the Republic in appearance. Now voices from the audience in the form of interspersed interviews during the rounds of the talk but also occasionally occur. With regard to the future of the political talk show, paints a gloomy picture of Bohme, who had talk in the Tower after the turn of 1989/90 great success, the German with his political talk format. His opinion has teamed up with the time sanded the instrument of the talk show”. He justified this with the constant increase in the guests of of duration of. Also the politicians were now less angular and less great”. Whether Bacon image come true is written in the stars ultimately people want to be entertained.
