50 Years German Basic Law: A Lesson from Weimar With the German Bundestag and Government moving from Bonn to Berlin, this summer a historic circle will be closed: German politics have returned to where they started in 1871, after the foundation of the Reich by Bismarck. Unlike Bonn, Berlin had been a symbol for some of the worst episodes in German history. But the city that paved the way to disaster was Weimar, the former cultural capital of Goethe and Schiller. In the year 1919 the Assembly of Weimar approved contemporarily the Constitution of Weimar and the opprobrious peace treaty of Versailles, thus laying the grounds for the first unlucky democratic experience in modern Geman history. Fortunately the Germans have learned from the catastrophe of the Weimar Republic and the Basic Law approved in May 1949 has proven a solid ground on which the new democracy in Bonn could establish a stable democratic culture. The achievements of the Basic Law will even guarantee the stability and reliability of the new Berlin Republic. bonn • weimar • berlin • basic law • berlin-umzug
