German Greens Challenging the Consensus

This book examines the Greens' contribution to the changing nature of contemporary German local politics and the effect of local political involvement upon the Greens themselves. The author shows how the established 'unpolitical' nature of Germany's local politics has given way to overtly political and confrontational approaches. This has occurred primarily under the influence of the Greens and the 'New Local Politics'. The book appears at an important juncture for the German Greens with questions being posed about their relevance in a post-unification Germany.Scharf, Thomas is the author of 'German Greens Challenging the Consensus' with ISBN 9780854967773 and ISBN 085496777X.
