education and profession

Carmen Everts grew up in Fedderwardergroden and moved with her parents to Goddelau in July 1977 . After graduating from high school in Gernsheim in 1987, she studied law and political science (together with Jürgen Walter ) with a master's degree at the University of Mannheim in 1994. In 1999, she received her doctorate from the TU Chemnitz under Eckhard Jesse with a thesis in which she examined political extremism using the example of Republicans and the PDS analyzed. She criticizes the "fundamental skepticism" of the SED successor party "towards parliamentary democracy based on the rule of law".

From 1995 to 1999 she was an employee of Nike , and from 1999 to 2003 she was a policy advisor for the SPD regional association . Since 2003 she has been a scientific advisor to the SPD parliamentary group in the Hessian state parliament.

After she left the state parliament, her employment relationship with the state parliamentary group was revived. However, she was released from service by the parliamentary group (with continued payment of salary). In November 2009 she was selected by the responsible selection committee as head of division of the state center for political education , which was criticized by the SPD member of the state parliament Reinhard Kahl . In addition to demographic developments, her work focuses on research on the SED dictatorship .

politics

Carmen Everts had been a member of the SPD since 1989. From May 2003 to November 2008 she was chairwoman of the SPD in the Groß-Gerau district .

From 1997 to November 2008 Carmen Everts was a member of the Groß-Gerau district council, where she was deputy chairman of the SPD district parliamentary group and chairwoman of the social committee.

In the state elections in Hesse in 2008 on January 27, 2008, Everts was elected to the Hessian state parliament with 40.3% of the first votes as the directly elected constituency member of the Groß-Gerau II constituency.

On November 3, 2008, together with Silke Tesch , Jürgen Walter and Dagmar Metzger , she declared that she would not support the election of Andrea Ypsilanti (SPD) as Prime Minister with votes from the Left Party , which was scheduled for the next day . The planned coalition of the SPD and the Greens , tolerated by the left , thus became impossible. The following day she resigned from her party offices, but not from the state parliament mandate she had directly won. At the same time, a motion to expel her from the party was filed . The party order procedure was discontinued with a complaint.

For the state elections in Hesse in 2009 , Carmen Everts did not apply for either the constituency or the state list. The constituency was won by Günter Schork (CDU).

In September 2010 , when asked, Carmen Everts confirmed to hr-info that she had left the SPD. She gave no reasons for her resignation because she “does not want to re-ignite the debate about her person”. But she will not join any other party.
