German 3rd Party Policies. Immigration Policy.

1.NPD
The NPD argues that Germany could never be a country of immigration because of its small size. The party wants to stop immigration into Germany and proposes expulsion in place of integration of immigrants. Instead the preservation of the German people's substance should be urged. The six main aims of the NPD regarding immigration are:
a national job-protection-security-law (nationales Arbeitsplatzschutzsicherungsgesetz; jobs should only be offered to immigrants, if no equally skilled German employee is available);
no demand for social or annuity insurances for immigrants;
strict obedience of the immigration law;
immigrants should not be allowed to buy or own estates, because German ground exclusively belongs to the German people;
repeal of the right of asylum;
right to nationality based on parentage only (Jus sanguinis)

2.DKP
Neither the homepage nor the manifesto of the DKP comment on immigration policy. Hence the hereafter information regarding immigration policy within the European Union is taken from the homepage of the Bundeszentrale für politische Bildung. The DKP's demands concerning immigration are:
citizenship according to residence, not according to parentage;
universal right to asylum without restrictions;
more permeable EU borders;
no deportation of refugees


3.PBC
The party advocates an immigration policy in conformity with the Bible. Furthermore, it is taken that the German society is sensitised for the problems of immigrants and especcially refugees because of its own refugee past after the Second World War (from East Prussia, Silesia etc.). So, according to the PBC, all immigrants are to be encountered with love and respect, so they can experience the love of God and Jesus Christ. Both the German language and the Word of God should be brought near to immigrants. Nonetheless, a superior concern is the restoration of good living conditions in the countries of origin to prevent immigration from becoming a problem.

  1. Did the PBC talk about "immigrants becoming a problem"? I think it is always difficult to talk about "becoming a problem" when you talk about people! I think that nobody, whatever nationality he or she has, want to be calles "a problem". I know immigration is widely dicussed problem, but I think we always have to remember that we talk about human beings that should be treated with respect!
    Very informative post! Thanks for sharing! :-)

  2. Hi Ramona. The text doesn't say "immigrants", it says "immigration".
