Andernach working group

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Andernach Working Group of Mensurbeflissenen Associations (AGA) is a special purpose association of striking corporation associations . Its member associations are the Association of Alter Corps Students (VAC), the Weinheim Association of Alter Corps Students (WVAC), the Altherrenverband des Coburg Convent Academic Landsmannschaften and Turnerschaften (AHCC), the German Burschenschaft (DB), the German Singers Association (DS) and the New Germans Burschenschaft (NeueDB).

The AGA was founded on April 1st, 1951 in Andernach by VAC, WVAC and the old lords of the gymnastics associations and country teams as an informal amalgamation, not least due to the Tübingen resolution passed by the West German Rectors' Conference . The German fraternity initially only had observer status. The first chairman was Hans-Reinhard Koch .

The AGA took over partial functions of the General German Weapons Ring , which was dissolved in 1935 , in particular in public relations and in the implementation of the processes around the determination censorship through legal advice to the active and control and financing of the model processes. In addition, she campaigned for the public wearing of colors .

The Göttingen scale trial at the Great Criminal Chamber of Göttingen was decided by the Federal Court of Justice after revision . Those affected were acquitted at the end of 1951 because a Mensur was not a duel with lethal weapons. In 1953, under the supervision of Federal President Theodor Heuss, an amicable settlement and the waiver of unconditional satisfaction by the Judicial Councilor Werner Ranz ( Corps Normannia Berlin ) was pronounced. The AGA had several legal opinions prepared for the criminal assessment of the scale. The AGA was also mentioned in the study published in 1968 by the GDR historian Ludwig Elm on West German university policy.

Today the AGA sees its main task in supporting the Association of Fencing Masters (VdF) in training fencing masters . On September 20, 2008 it was constituted as a registered association .
