INITIATIVES FOR SOCIAL JUSTICE NEEDED IN GERMANY--and elsewhere ??NOW
By Kevin Stoda, Germany
As the German national elections draw near at the end of September 2009, the leftist and more progressive groups in the country are drawing votes away from the major center party, the SPD (Socialist Party of Germany). The issue of ??Lohndumping ? and cries for social justice art at heart of the advance of the far left party, DIE LINKE (The Left).
The Left Party is currently expected to get 12% of the national vote on the final Sunday of September when all Germans can go to the Polls and elect their national representation. (They had only received 5 % of the vote four years ago.)
This success of the rising LEFT may appear to be a surprising situation for most other parts of the world to imagine because the German economy has been seen as the best in Europe for decades.
