politics

Albert Berg was elected to the first freely elected citizenship after 1933 for the SPD in October 1946 . He was a member of the Hamburg citizenship until 1961.

While he was still exercising his mandate, he was expelled from the parliamentary group and party. He was first excluded from the SPD in November 1959 by the Hamburg-Nordwest district committee because he had been a guest of honor at the GDR's ten-year celebration in East Berlin on October 7th. He appealed against this exclusion to the party arbitration tribunal in Bonn, but during this time let his mandate in the citizenry rest. In February 1960, the SPD executive in Bonn confirmed the exclusion. Berg rejected the request of the parliamentary group to return the mandate. In this context, Berg was voted out of his position as chairman of the Hamburg Association of Allotment Gardeners at an Extraordinary Assembly of Delegates for Allotment Gardeners.

Later he founded the party " Association of Independent Socialists " at a congress of the association of excluded and resigned Social Democrats . From 1961 to around 1969, Albert Berg published the socialist helfte monthly on behalf of the board of the VUS , in which theoretical topics were reported on the life of the association. In February 1961, Berg was elected to the executive board of the newly founded party DFU-Hamburg . For the general election on November 12th, he was chosen by his new party as the top candidate. In the election, the DFU received 2.9 percent of the vote. Berg was considered a SED fellow traveler.
