[edit] Archived talk pages

Talk:Basic Law for the Federal Republic of Germany/Archive 1 - Talk prior to 2006-12-03

I have taken the liberty to move the Talk page to an archive page so current talk issues do net get cluttered up with past discussions - frankly trying to understand what some of the past discussions were about at all scrambles my brain.

This does of course not meant to imply any past discussion should not be continued if someone wishes to - but it'd more readable to start with a new talk page IMO. - Tschild 22:38, 3 December 2006 (UTC)


[edit] So, what are the remaining disputes?

Which disputes need to be resolved so we can remove the disputed tag? - Tschild 11:15, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

There aren't any. Go ahead. ProhibitOnions (T) 13:17, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
As nobody else has piped up I have removed the tag. Tschild 07:18, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Are are the ordinary courts mentioned?

Are the courts that aren't the Bundesverfassungsgericht mentioned in the Basic Law? 220.253.0.37 09:46, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

Articles 92 to 103 also contain provisions for the work of the ordinary courts (e.g. rights of the accused). I'll try to expand the article on that matter. Tschild 16:02, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Bavaria?

The article notes that the basic law was not approved by Bavaria before it came into force. Did Bavaria approve it later, or did it apply to all the states if a minimum number of them approved? --Jfruh (talk) 02:45, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

In May 1949 the Bavarian Parliament voted 101 : 63 against the constitution, as it did not strengthen the power of the Federal States. However, if more than 2 thirds of the stated have approved the constitution, Bavaria accepted it to be binding also for Bavaria. (afterwards there was no approval by the Bavarian Parliament, as the Constitution was already in force). Ipwaz2003 15:41, 12 August 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Grundgesetz and Reunification

"Germany finally reunified when the GDR peacefully joined the West German Federal Republic of Germany"

WRONG: the GDR did not join the Federal Republic, the five states (Länder) Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt, Brandenburg, Mecklenburg-Western Pommerania and Thuringia did —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.164.220.128 (talk) 11:53, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
