GREEN POWER – HOW THE GREEN PARTY WANTS TO CHANGE THE COUNTRY

  • The book for the super-election year 2021 
  • Ulrich Schulte is one of the greatest experts on the Green Party in Germany 
  • Up close, precise and entertaining.

In a time when the political landscape is undergoing radical change and the popular parties are disintegrating, the Green Party - of all things - has become stability, reliability and support for the state. Habeck and Baerbock are the stars of the German political landscape and promise to give answers to the mega-questions of the 21st century. But do their concepts work? Are they really saving the world?

The answers given by Green Party expert Schulte are astonishing: the party leadership portrays itself as radical and ready to fight, but in reality, it is careful not to overwhelm its base. And it is no longer the dungaree and woolly jumper-wearing eco-activists, but all of us. This book takes stock of the success of the Green party, in a way that is up close, precise and entertaining. Ulrich Schulte writes not only about the party and its successful leaders, but also about the middle-class circles that votes for them. He holds a mirror up to the Green Party, but also to those who vote for it – and confronts them with their inconsistencies.
