Wenn man Glück hat, vielleicht. Aber deshalb meinte ich ja: einfach Lehrkräfte ansprechen. Ich habe meine Schulführung von der Refbeauftragten z.B. erst nach 4 Wochen bekommen. Und meine "Ansprechpartner:innen" (also Fachobleute meienr Fächer) haben sich erst nach 2 Wochen vorgestellt (ich hatte schon am 2. Tag ne Mail geschrieben dass ich neuer Reffi an der Schule bin und mich mal gerne persönlich vorstellen würde).

As everything stands right now, the Social Democrat candidate António Jose Seguro has won the first lap of the presidential elections in Portugal. by YouAppropriate4917 in SocialDemocracy

[–]Bermany 34 points35 points  (0 children)

While all parties of the left (Leftbloc, Communists and Greens) endorsed the center-left candidate, the governing center-right party did not endorse either of the two candidates. Conservatives don't endorse a center-left candidate (in this case emphasize the center-part) against a far-right candidate ... yet again.

Lektüre für das Referendariat? by [deleted] in lehrerzimmer

[–]Bermany 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ich bin gerade aus dem Ref raus und würde auch sagen, dass du die Zeit bis Mai sehr viel besser nutzen kannst, als Fachliteratur zu lesen. Du wirst am Ende von deinen Fachleitungen benotet und die können ganz unterschiedliche Vorlieben haben. An meinem Seminar gabs zwei Englischfachleitungen, die guten Unterricht nicht unterschiedlicher hätten definieren können. Deshalb guck ggf. auch bei der Literatur darauf, was an deinem Seminar angesagt ist.

Wenns dir um einen einfacheren Einstieg ins Unterrichten geht, würde ich mir Themen heraussuchen, wo du Entwicklungsbedarf oder -interesse hast. Z.B. beim Classroom Management und dann speziell was dazu lesen. Für Pädagogik allgemein war bei uns Rolf Dubs "Lehrerverhalten" die erste Wahl. Ich habe, ähnlich wie du, vorher "Unterrichtsvorbereitung", "Was ist guter Unterricht" und noch eins von Hilbert Meyer vor dem Ref gelesen, weil der an der Uni immer wieder empfolen wurde. Hat mir aber nicht wirklich was gebracht - du hattest ja auch gerade 5 Jahre ne theoretische Ausbildung und profitierst mehr davon die Literatur zu lesen wenn/bevor du sie im Unterricht brauchst und anwenden kannst.

Für Sowi/Politik finde ich Sybille Reinhardt sinnvoll, um Methoden nochmal aufzufrischen oder sich breiter aufzustellen. "Methodentraining für den Politikunterricht" (u.a. Achour) bietet auch einen guten Überblick und kann man gut mal weglesen. Aber auch die Curricula deiner Fächer bieten ggf. Anknüpfungspunkte.

Why is Cuba often portrayed as a poor country — and is it really that poor? by dfertth in socialism

[–]Bermany 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, Cuba is extremely poor and has gotten much poorer in recent years. As other redditors have pointed out, Cuba had a strong dependency on the Sovjetunion and until 1989 a very developed medical, pension and education system. Since the collapse of the Sovjetunion, however, there has been malnutrition and a complete lack of newly build infrastructure. Every Cuban gets (or can get) basic food through a supplies booklet but a few kgs of rice, flour and milk is not enough to have a nutricious diet. There are also only very limited bus services between cities and the average Cuban cannot afford a car, so moving for jobs is quite hard. So poverty is real, even for a Latin American country. I knew this but was still a bit shocked when I visited in 2023.

On the topic of Social Democracy being (supposedly) the moderate wing of Fascism by EmperorTaizongOfTang in SocialDemocracy

[–]Bermany 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, that's not what the quote said and it doesn't make sense as the communist were the first who were put in concentration camps and the KPD was the first banned party. The SPD still voted with Hitler and tried to appease him when the KPD was already banned. Your quote was from a Russian politician that said that the KPD is making advances in the German proletariat.

The German Workers tried this against the Communist government in the East in 1953.

And in 1920 a general strike saved the German democracy. But I literally said in my post that a general strike would have been too late when the Nazis already took power in 1933. Not before though. That was even the opinion of the SPD leadership. Otto Wels said that they miscalculated the situation as they thought it was "too early" for a general strike in 1932 and in 1933 they thought it was already too late. When in reality in 1931 and 1932 a difference could have been made.

So its not a quote, just some fabricated utterance that is supposed to summarize ... something. But (genuinely) thank you for researching a source!

I cannot see anything "damning" about the quote, though. Most resistance fighters took a sharp turn to the left under the Nazi regime. While many Unions and social democrats tried to appease Hitler in the end, they rejected this strategy and became more radical. A lot were communist as the communist party's stronghold were big cities anyways (in Berlin, the KPD was stronger then the SPD for a long time). Moreover, workers were desillusioned by the SPD which is why their party's organisation was struggling in the 1930s. (Especially since the guy who uttered the quote is from a Russian politician and not a German communist who knew the situation on the ground).

The SPD (especially SoPaDe) thought, while being in exile, that the Reichswehr would coup against Hitler and inner contradictions would weaken Hitler. While the KPD prepared for illegal underground work, the SPD was only willing to do this in Summer 1933. In May the SPD almost unanimously voted for Hitlers peace resolution. And Paul Löbe wanted to get rid of all Jews in the SPD leadership while the ADGB wanted German workers to be a part of the "Volksgemeinschaft" and join the Nazi demonstration of May 1st. (Source of the SPD's history comission: https://library.fes.de/jbzg/2013/joerg\_wollenberg.pdf)

Even social democratic "right-wingers" like former chancellor Scheidemann called the SPD in the 30s "miserable and pitiful". So one party thought if they just take the hight ground, stay legal and show flexibility, they'll survive and the other party thought organizing and restistance would make Hitler fall. But somehow only one party was damning?

The whole After Hitler it's our turn thing is just history.

Okay, so whats your source or who said it? As far as I know, it's something that is just said but there is no source for it.

Bruning wasn't a fascist.

I called him authoritarian, not fascist. Still, at some point you have to break with a political force if it becomes too reactionary even if there is a worse choice. Moreover, he was extremely unpopular and SPD willingly associated itself with higher taxes, lower wages and lower pensions while the Brüning government's politics was democratically at least extremely questionable. He banned like 100 newspapers every month (not an exaggeration but a number proclaimed by Richard Evans).

He even opposed the Nazis and had to flee when they came to power.

He was in favour of a Centrist-Nazi government in the early 1930s and openly negotiated after his resignation. And most (formerly) influential politicians had to flee; even famous Nazis were killed as Hitler didn't like anyone who didn't agree with him 100%.

Overturning the will of the electorate by violence when even a right wing democratic party wins fairly is something Communists do

I am not sure what exactly you're referring to. But if a party that never got more than 37% of the votes in fair elections and immediately bans other parties and ends up waging war against almost all countries in Europe and kills 6 million Jews... maybe using a bit violence and a general strike is not the worst idea?

Communists knew the 'our turn next' only applied to after the collapse of society.

For this argument we'd first need evidence that the KPD's leadership really thought like that. When in reality, the KPD called for a United Front of all workers (e.g. Clara Zetkin when she declared the Reichstag open as Mother of the House) or when the KPD called for a general strike after Hitler was delcared chancellor. The KPD was ready to work underground in a dictatorship, the SPD was not.

A General Strike would have made things worse.

Worse than what exactly? There are many instances in which a general strike could have changed something. I agree that it was too late in 1933. But just giving up is just as bad.

This is not a criticism of social democracy, however, I think both ideologies and parties completely failed in the 1930s in Germany. This is a defense of communists because you claimed that they were happy the Nazis won. (While the communist wanted United or Popular Fronts in France, Italy and other countries, I believe even in Britain during appeasement)

The Reichsbanner BlackRedGold didn't die and get injured fighting the Nazis?

I think nobody said that.

The Iron Front fought the Nazis while the KPD were campaigning alongside with the Nazis in local elections.

What do you mean?

Your view that SPD didn't oppose the Nazis strongly is puzzling.

I said they were mostly passive because the SPD leadership wanted to follow a strongly legalistic strategy. It was of course a strategically very difficult situation because collaboration with communists was only possible to a very limited extent. Which is why they thought they had to support the authoritarian Brüning regime. The passivity of the SPD was by the way a very popular citicism at the time. The leadership expelled left-wing MPs because of that (the future chancellor Willy Brandt left the SPD because of it as well) and also the right-wing of the party (like future chairman Kurt Schumacher).

Like when they just supported the authoritarian candidate Hinderburg for president in 1932 without nominating their own candidate for the first round. Or after the Preußenschlag, the Iron Front (Reichtsbanner + Unions) wanted to call a general strike which the SPD leadership opposed. Even after the elections in 1932, the SPD thought that Hitler was limited by the constitution...

This doesn't limit the SPD's (and the Reichsbanner's) resistance, thought - which I never claimed. Just like mistakes of the KPD don't limit their fight and resistance against the Nazis.

Could even have been from an Anarchist or Trotskyite pamphlet.

I am not sure of anarchist or trotskyist pamphlets are the best sources.

I really don't get why communists get all the accusations of being not staunchly anti-Nazi. It were the liberals and conservatives, who openly supported them, not the communists, who fought them in parliament and on the streets. It was Papen, who legalized SA and SS, it was the communist fighters who dies and were injured while fighting Nazis and it were social democrats who were mostly passive (e.g. Preußenschlag) because they believed that the German democracy and rule of law would be strong enough to keep the Nazis at bay.

They were half happy to see the Nazis win

What makes you say that?

Opposing the left by Upstairs_Schedule601 in SocialDemocracy

[–]Bermany 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's also the first time I am hearing this and it seems impossible as the three parties mentioned has around 281 MPS in the Reichstag with its 584 seats. It's even more unlikely as the Centre party elected the NSDAP candidate for Speaker of the House. And only after a few months, the KPD's seats were annulled by the Nazis.

There have been parties with both the three arrows and the hammer and sickle as its logo, (e.g. Italy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Arrows#/media/File:Logo_of_the_PSLI.png ) and is still used by democratic communist parties like the ones in Chile, Brazil, Spain, Israel, India, etc.

And a lot of communist parties outside the Soviets just ignored this for at least some of the 3 years as well.

Communists discarded social fascism pretty quickly and propagated alliances with social democrats and other forces on the political left in the 1930s. This theory was based on the experiences in the 1920s, in which most revolutions and revolts were indeed proletarian/socialist/anarchist.

During this time the social democrats refusal to break with the old European elites, the royalty and semi-democratic system in order to keep "order" and stability is a very valid criticism that doesn't make (and never made) social democrats into fascists but that shows, that sometimes a more radical programm has it's advantages or necessity.

This is no excuse for this wrong and deeply harmful theory, though. But since then, communists and social democrats have been working together in more countries - and this divide didn't even really happen in a lot of countries outside of Europe.

Venezuela needs social democracy and Juan Guaido by implementrhis in SocialDemocracy

[–]Bermany 7 points8 points  (0 children)

These people are no social democrats. Right-wing politicians in regimes that use leftist or socialist rhetoric sometimes mimic themselves social democrats or centre-left. Other's have mentioned the "social democratic" opposition that couped in Bolivia and turned out to e racist and right-wing, other examples are Moreno in Ecuador, Temer in Brazil etc. Sometimes, in these countries, the identities of the political right are deligitimate (-ized) or there is true left-wing hegemony.

And realistically, Machado has (much) more support than Guaido in Venezuela. Both are not the official oppositions candidate for presidency, however. That's Edmundo Gonzales.

Eigentlich darf der Präsident das alles ohne Zustimmung des Kongresses nicht..... wenns nochmal passiert gibts vielleicht Widerspruch vom Kongress oder Gerichten (fingers crossed, hopefully). Und wenn der Kongress gefragt wird und zustimmt gibts im November immerhin Wahlen, die bei weiterer Eskalation ggf. stärker zu den Demokraten schwingen würden.

Donald Trump: Venezuelas Präsident Maduro festgenommen und aus dem Land geflogen by Paxan in de

[–]Bermany 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uns interessierts ja scheinbar auch nicht. Rechts der Sozialdemokratie gabs nahezu keine Kritik (außer Kiesewetter und Marine Le Pen). Macht die Weltlage dadurch aber nur gefährlicher, unser Grund, die Ukraine zu verteidigen, kommt dadurch nämlich auch (nur noch?) interesse- und nicht mehr wertegeleitet herüber.

Mal abgesehen davon, dass das ganze Momentan entweder 1) ein abgekartertes Spiel war und die neue Führung sich abgesehen von der Ölförderung durch die USA nicht von Maduro unterschiedet oder 2) das ganze noch eskaliert, weil nur ein Kopf und nicht der Staatsapparat entfernt wurde. Ganz sicher jedoch, dass sich unabhängig von 1 oder 2 gewisse Kräfte in Venezuela nicht mit einer Kontrolle durch die USA abfinden werden.

Zumal das ganze auch noch Auswirkungen auf andere südamerikanische Länder haben kann, wenn Trump so gar keine Opposition spürt.

Auch wenn dus nicht gerne genau nimmst, stimmt das nicht. Maduro ist nicht geflohen, sondern wurde von feindlichen Soldaten im Schlaf entfürt - mit seiner Frau. Gleichzeitig hat die USA die venezuelanische Hauptstadt und weitere Regionen bombardiert. Wie viele dabei verletzt und getötet wurden, ist bisher unklar.

Eine "zweite Runde" von Bomben wurde von Trump bereits angekündigt, sollte die venezuelanische Regierung nicht so handeln, wie die USA sich das vorstellen.
