Her stellar reputation, sound political and economic management, and popularity inside of Germany resulted in one of the most decisive electoral victories for her conservative parties in postwar Germany--the country can rightfully be deemed the Merkel Republic. Bringing together German politics experts from both sides of the Atlantic, this volume addresses the campaign, results, and consequences of the 2013 Bundestag election. Chapters delve into a diverse array of themes, including immigrant-origin and women candidates, the fate of the small parties, and the prospects for the SPD, the new coalition partner, as well as more general structural trends like the Europeanization and cosmopolitanization of German politics"--Provided by publisher. 606 $aElections$zGermany$xHistory$y21st century 606 $aPolitical parties$zGermany$xHistory$y21st century 606 $aPolitical candidates$zGermany$xHistory$y21st century 606 $aCoalition governments$zGermany$xHistory$y21st century 606 $aCosmopolitanism$xPolitical aspects$zGermany$xHistory$y21st century 607 $aGermany$xPolitics and government$y1990- 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aElections$xHistory 615 0$aPolitical parties$xHistory 615 0$aPolitical candidates$xHistory 615 0$aCoalition governments$xHistory 615 0$aCosmopolitanism$xPolitical aspects$xHistory 676 $a324.943/0883 702 $aLangenbacher$b Eric 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910481022403321 996 $aThe Merkel Republic$92446604 997 $aUNINA
