The committee found proposals in seven of the fourteen party programs examined that do not pass the test against the minimum standards of the rule of law. This often concerns proposals in the field of immigration and asylum. Those proposals got the disqualification red, usually because they openly discriminate against certain groups of citizens or deny or obstruct their access to justice.

It is clear that all parties are struggling to answer the question of how our democracy should become political (her)designed to meet the demands of these turbulent times, how citizens can be better involved in far-reaching decisions that have to be taken by politicians, how institutions such as the judiciary can be strengthened, precisely to protect the fundamental rights of citizens.
This is the constitutional task that will bind the parties for the next four years.

The police can not just enter someone's house or put someone in jail. In a democratic state, everyone has the right to express his opinion within the limits of the law. Something which in case of actual boundaries are exactly, only determines the independent and impartial tribunal. A political majority should never restrict minority rights without more.
At the parliamentary elections of 2017 do 28 parties with. Many of these parties have written in an election what their plans helpful2. It is important that voters can know what those plans mean for the constitutional foundation of our democracy. The rule of law is never obvious and strengthening it begins with awareness.
