Godesberg Program

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Godesberg Program (German: Godesberger Programm) is the general outline of the political course of Germany's social-democratic party, the SPD. It was ratified on November 15, 1959 at an SPD party convention. It is named after the town of Bad Godesberg, which is today part of Bonn.

The Godesberg program was notable mainly because with it, for the first time, the SPD forswore all Marxist ideas, thereby formally solidifying the course it had already taken since 1891.
