독일의 큰 질문들: 민주주의, AfD, 그리고 독일 정치제도

Germany's 5% electoral threshold prevents fragmentation but excludes legitimate minority voices — its level should be reconsidered.

The AfD should be subject to a formal ban procedure under Article 21 of the Basic Law if evidence of anti-constitutional activity is established.

The Federal Constitutional Court's independence must be protected against attempts by parliamentary majorities to alter its composition.

Germany should make naturalisation easier and faster — current citizenship requirements are unnecessarily burdensome for long-term residents.

Germany needs substantially stronger lobbying transparency legislation to reduce the undue influence of corporations on legislation.

The Bundestag is too large following recent electoral reforms and should be reduced through a revised electoral law.

The democratic firewall against coalition with the AfD is necessary to defend constitutional democratic norms.
