Toward an Understanding of German Politics at the Turn of a New Century; Bibliography ; IndexSince unification German society and institutions have been challenged by various transformations and the need to adjust to changing conditions. While much has been accomplished, many political, legal, and institutional problems remain. This volume deals with selected aspects of domestic and European policy, political parties, the challenge of direct democracy, and federalism in unified Germany – all issues that have been the subject of much discussion, political posturing, legislation, and, to some extent, constitutional amendments and court decision for many years, if not decades. In conclusion, a British scholar looks at German federalism and a number of public policy issues from a comparative perspective and arrives at some surprising and encouraging results.Policies and institutions ;v. 5.LawGermanyGermanyPolitics and government1990-GermanySocial policyHistory: 20th Century to Present.Law320/.6/0943Gunlicks Arthur B.1936-MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910798495503321German public policy and federalism3744381UNINA
