German Social Democratic Party (SPD)


I worked on studying the SPD German political party. I looked up some of the more basic and background information on the party, but waited to get together with the group before I looked up anything in depth. Getting all 8 people together was difficult, and in the end we weren't able to find a time that worked for everyone so we had to rely very heavily on exchanging emails to get our presentation put together. Everyone in the group was able to work really well together and we shared the work load equally.

For references, we relied mostly on wikipedia since it had all the information compiled together on one page. We double checked on our facts and comparing what one person found with another so that all of the information matched up and made sense. A good majority of the websites we tried to access were German websites, which made navigating through the page difficult.

The SPD is a more liberal, left-wing party. I think that if I were living in Germany, I would most likely vote for the SPD. I like their beliefs on economics and their stance on social welfare as well.
