Demands for Constitutional Reform Liberals pushed for this to strengthen the power of the Reischstag. Bismarck previously dealth with this using ‘Divide & Rule’ tactics. 1860’s & 70 he used war & conquest to split the more national minded liberals from those who wanted constitutional reform. After passing the Tarrif Laws, which pleased the Conservatives & National Liberals, the divisions remained & demands for more power in the Reichstag were muted. Successive Chancellors continued to deal with this challenge well.
Demand for Social Reform Socialists demanded social reform. The passing of the Anti-Socialist Laws in 1878 drove all socialist organisations underground. In 1890, the Reichstag, along with support from the Kaiser refused to confirm the legislation and it was dropped (Bismarck was furious at this). From then, only limited social reform was granted.
Foreign Minister & Chancellor Bernhard von Bulow FM 1897 – 1900 Chancellor 1900 – 1909 During his time in office he devised strategies to protect the interests of the ruling classes. Sammlungspolitik Politics of Concentration. Bulow aimed to build an alliance of conservative interests in the Reich between Conservatives & Liberals, Junker & industrialists, which would provide a broad front against Socialism. To do this he created a policy of protectionism and a nationalist foreign & colonial policy to rally all Germans called Weltpolitik (World politics). Integral to Weltpolitik was building up the German armed forces. Flottenpoliitik was a major part of this policy which was to build a navy to rival that of Britain. Secretary to the Navy, Alfred von Tirpitz was integral to this.
Questions 1) How successful were Bulow’s Weltpolitik & Sammlungspolitik? 2) Why was there not an even greater outcry in response to the Herero Genocide in Germany?
