"Stuttgart 21" has become in many ways a symbol, some think it's now a symbol of megalomania, the megalomania -.. urban and financially Others see Stuttgart 21 as a symbol for the "arrogance of power" - as the title of a press review at n-tv For others it is a symbol of the uprising. courageous citizens against the misguided government policy in Berlin, for Mrs. Künast is Stuttgart 21 is now a "causa Merkel" is it the people there actually been to the state government: "Down with Mappus" one reads on banners, and recognize Özdemir, can the actually meant "way with Merkel." As said last night Mr mining, railway boss: "We are building here in town no nuclear reactors, but a railway station. Of these, one notices, however, hardly anything. TV pictures show sobbing women who complain: "The beautiful old trees!" and pensioners, who resent "shameful, what are they doing here!" The protesters on Thursday were not young adults, but "students", "children". The TV pictures showed, however, roused quite aggressive and young people. The police talk of (proven), they had been attacked with bottles, chestnuts and charm spray. The latest findings are to be read here . That stones were flying, was a fatal error message. After all began even during the demonstration against the Cutting of trees in the media violent the dispute over the sovereignty of interpretation of the event - and the outcome of this dispute is usually more important than the event itself was able to on Thursday evening to experience a totally indignant host of the evening news (Marietta Slomka ), the only children, senior citizens, innocent citizens have perceived that their right to demonstrate peacefully would have been used - and which would have Wife beaters and aggressive martial ("escalation") made against police officers.
From Nowhere was the right speech. The media largely silent on the question of right and law. That made me really upset and angry.
If you read the press review on n-tv, one actually gets the impression that here it relates to a "Swabian War" to the "loss of confidence in democratic institutions," a "chain" - Massacre of the government Mappus " All would force the state of ", from the government. Retrieved from "arrogance of power" is mentioned, the "failure of reason," of "exorbitant Additional costs to the taxpayers'
again. By law and by the breach of the law is no mention this is shocking
N-tv calls in the last paragraph has a comment in the Süddeutsche Zeitung .. "The I-point ". I agree with you, but not because there the issue is brought to the point, but because it illuminates a sudden, while the public debate and opinion power of the media has wrong track here the quote." shows the demonstrations in Stuttgart that a modern constitutional state can not be a State of the decisions executed simply, a modern constitutional state must, especially when it comes to big construction projects, taken also to have Decisions to advertise, he must again and again and correct it if necessary. He can not just say, "Go out of the way, folks, that's ages ago was so decided and announced, which is now checked off, which is now enforced, and those who resisted it, is wrong"
A "modern. Rule of Law "-? what is that a country that no longer holds on the right or it bends and bends, or, the right, in the opinion of media and demonstrators, in any event not more?" functions "(because that is indeed translated 'executed' - the association with 'execution' is certainly not unintentional) A rule of law must for its decisions? "Canvass", even if there are numerous court judgments - may no longer be observed when their acceptance does not 'advertise'? What is now a constitutional state whose law applies only if you agree also in the process must first loser? So right with what has been called since Kant "arbitrary", 'right' to believe the naked, in the opinion and Gustus. The "modern law", the SZ could not just run, "which was decided before the world and preach" is. It sounds strong - and is incredibly hypocritical and - wrong. In a kind products by Dagmar Decker same paper has detailed out the following: "In the long Plan approval process were brought by concerned citizens more than 11,000 appeals, all of which were processed in court and ruled in favor of the project. To say nothing of the hundreds of public debates that were fought over the plans. "In other words, there was no public participation? Of it what you want." Ages ago "? Again, this it what you will. Thus, for Mrs. Decker quite correct to suggest that the final decision to build was only after 15 years of planning in April 2009 - with an exit clause to the end of 2009 (see same article) What they do not remember: It was on after the local elections in Baden-Württemberg 7th. June 2009, ie before Just over a year. "Stuttgart 21" was already an "eternal" about the local and state policy in BaWü. One can thus interpret rightly the just decision in the period of "Stuttgart 21" lying local elections as a citizen decision on this major construction project. At that time, about a year ago, were the proponents of the new station (and the new route) in Stuttgart more than 60% of the vote = more than 250 000 - for supporters of the project all parties and almost all voter groups except the "green" goods. Does that "no citizen participation" and "ages ago"? Now if in the opinion of the quoted commentary of the SZ of the "modern rule of law," one that the now enforcing the law because of the suddenly changed public opinion as "wrong" must consider? What kind of a democracy and legal understanding, which is lost in such a comment reveals it?
A "protest researchers" (which is now back for a job title?), Ie the political scientist Prof. Dr. Rucht from the Science Center Berlin for Social Research, leads interview SZ something from what is certainly worth thinking:
sueddeutsche.de ": Resistance to the train station project will be compared over time with the student movement of the 68s there. there parallels?
Rucht: Striking are the differences. Back then it was all about big issues: the Vietnam War, the threat of the upgrade, capitalism or socialism. This is different in Stuttgart. But I do think that a general malaise has led to the protests, that has to do not only with a construction project Stuttgart 21. Would it really only go to a station, there would be no such extreme resistance. The citizens of Stuttgart feel of the policies are not taken seriously, which makes them angry. "
" general malaise "is probably not a very strong analytical concept of how one has to assess the current protests in Stuttgart, somewhat thin. But one says Mr Rucht very correct: "Would only go to a station, there would be no such extreme resistance." Exactly, "only to a train station (mine) it's apparently not long ago. It's much more of a showdown with the rule of law by an "opinion society" and their parties. To this extent, "Stuttgart 21" actually used for something else, perhaps even "exploited". Georg Paul Hefty (FAZ) is certainly right with his opinion: it is the opinion authority over the interpretation of this protest to the real question of power to the governments in Berlin and Stuttgart. The party leaders have recognized the flash and used. So now the police should be contaminated, which is none other than the rule of law enforce law. This is, after their duty. Hopefully they will continue to not stop.
The old women on TV the day before it was actually only appeared around the beautiful old tree. But politically, little is meaningful ...
