Germany (East) Alliance Policy - Flags, Maps, Economy, History, Climate, Natural Resources, Current Issues, International Agreements, Population, Social Statistics, Political System East Germany follows the pattern of the Hungarian, Czechoslovak, and Polish "multiparty" systems in permitting the existence of small parties that accept the leadership of the ruling communist party and are its allies in the construction of socialism. In contrast to the one-party system in the Soviet Union, these smaller parties assist the SED in reaching certain key sectors of the community, such as the intelligentsia, businessmen, and manufacturers who are not members of the SED. Their chief function is securing the support of these groups for the aims of the party and the state and integrating into the socialist system citizens who are critical of the SED or who, because of their social and/or political background, cannot secure or achieve membership in the SED. www.photius.com /countries/germany_east/government/germany_east_government_alliance_policy.html   (239 words)

Fringe parties (from Germany) --  Encyclopædia Britannica The National Democratic Party of Germany, the oldest of the country's right-wing parties, was formed in 1964 and gained little support in national elections, though it was able to enter several state parliaments in the late 1960s. Of Germany's small fringe parties, only the rightist Republican Party and the DVU, together with a handful of regional and special-interest bodies, are now visible in national or regional elections. Although the rightist parties have distinct policies and have been unable to coalesce around a united platform, they share an antipathy toward Germany's liberal immigration policies and have generally been regarded as neofascist in orientation. www.britannica.com /eb/article-233606   (408 words)

Voigt Voigt sets a dangerous precedent because members of parties such as the Social Democrats, the Party of Democratic Socialism and The Greens, could also be refused an Australian visa on the basis of a statement more appropriate to a Monty Python skit than an Australian Minister.

German Fears Grow That Far-Right Party Will Return to National Stage The fears have increased because of the growing support that extreme-right parties are enjoying in Eastern Germany, where the German People's Party and the more powerful and better organized National Democratic Party of Germany, or NPD, recently won 10 percent of the vote in regional state elections in Brandenburg and Saxony.

Germany's defeat in World War I and the subsequent outbreak of revolutionary activity in various parts of the country greatly intensified the effects of these crises. www.grolier.com /wwii/wwii_national.html   (1820 words)

Germany’s proportional representation electoral system—which requires a party get at least 5 percent to enter parliament—means the NPD will not be represented in the state’s Landtag. www.amren.com /mtnews/archives/2004/09/farright_expect.php   (1354 words)
