The party's foundation rests on the pillars of ecology, self-determination, justice, and non-violent politics. Its worldview is shaped by the recognition of ecological limits: economic activity must operate within planetary boundaries. Its understanding of humanity is emancipatory and progressive.
The party's agenda focuses on the socio-ecological transformation of the economy, a massive expansion of renewable energy, and the preservation of biodiversity. Its target groups primarily include urban, educated demographics, young people, and environmentally conscious businesses. The party advocates for a modern sustainable mobility transition, robust consumer protection, and liberal social policies that foster diversity. In foreign policy, it champions values-based multilateralism and the strengthening of European institutions, often navigating the tension between its pacifist origins and the pragmatic responsibilities of security policy.
Strategically, the Greens have evolved from an oppositional protest movement into a pragmatic governing party, acting as a bridge-builder between various political camps. They assume the role of a moral advocate for sustainability, challenging the institutions of the rule of law to more firmly embed ecological rights. Tensions regularly arise from the conflict between radical ecological grassroots demands and the necessary compromises inherent in parliamentary power politics. Their relationship with the state is characterized by the will to transform it from within, making it more ecological and inclusive.
We surveyed voters across all parties within the PolitPro community about their stances on key political issues. The bars illustrate the range of opinions among Grüne supporters. A shorter bar indicates a more homogeneous opinion among supporters. Where available, the party's official position is displayed as a circle.
These values are derived from data provided by Grüne supporters on the PolitPro platform. While this data is not a traditional representative random sample, the high number of participants provides deep insights into the priorities and values of the active voter base.
