Politically, the year was particularly marked by the debate about the nuclear phase-out and the euro rescue package . Especially with regard to domestic political affairs, both the state trojan analyzed by the Chaos Computer Club and the ongoing dispute over data retention between Interior Minister Hans-Peter Friedrich and Justice Minister Sabine Leutheusser-Schnarrenberger caused controversy . In terms of foreign policy, Germany stood out for its abstention from UN Security Council Resolution 1973 , which was intended to set up a no-fly zone over the country in response to the civil war in Libya (2011) and to enable a NATO mission.
After the then Federal Defense Minister Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg initiated the suspension of compulsory military service , he resigned because of the plagiarism affair surrounding his dissertation.
The recruitment agreement with Turkey was signed 50 years ago . The anniversary was celebrated with a ceremony in Munich and the arrival of the special train “50 Years of Migration” from Turkey at Munich Central Station.
State elections were held in seven of the 16 federal states this year. While the FDP suffered heavy losses over the course of the year, Bündnis90 / Die Grünen was able to record the largest increase in members and votes in its history, mainly due to the nuclear disaster in Fukushima and the protest against Stuttgart 21 . With the election to the Berlin House of Representatives , the Pirate Party began to establish itself as a new parliamentary force.
In September, the number of registered unemployed fell to 2.796 million, the lowest level since 1991 . The unemployment rate was 6.6 percent.
2011 census
With the 2011 census, a census took place for the first time since 1984 . Around a third of all citizens, including all homeowners and selected other households, were obliged to answer a questionnaire. The deadline for the survey was Monday, May 9th. While massive protests took place at the 1984 census, the population demonstrated only marginally against the 2011 census.
Guttenberg plagiarism affair
In February, the plagiarism affair surrounding the current Federal Defense Minister Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg preoccupied the public. Several plagiarisms were discovered in his dissertation , which led to his doctoral degree being withdrawn from the University of Bayreuth on February 23 . On March 1, 2011 Guttenberg announced his resignation from all federal political offices. With the help of GuttenPlag Wiki and VroniPlag Wiki , plagiarism affairs arose from other academics such as FDP politician Silvana Koch-Mehrin and CDU politician Matthias Pröfrock , whose doctoral degrees were also revoked.
Reactions to the Fukushima nuclear disaster
In response to the nuclear disaster in Fukushima , the federal government initiated a safety review of all 17 German nuclear reactors and the three-month shutdown of the seven oldest nuclear power plants as part of the so-called nuclear moratorium (announced March 14, 2011) . On June 6, the decided Cabinet Merkel II the gradual phase out nuclear power by 2022 and thus took the decided in autumn 2010 life extensions back.
The catastrophe in Japan also reinforced the anti-nuclear movement in Germany. At the beginning of November there were massive protests in Wendland against a Castor transport from the La Hague reprocessing plant in northern France to the Gorleben interim storage facility . The demonstrators repeatedly managed to block the train, so that it did not arrive in Gorleben for 125 hours; this was the longest delay in a Castor transport until then.
Bundeswehr reform
One of the largest reforms in the Federal Republic of Germany in 2011 included the conversion of the Bundeswehr into a volunteer and professional army , which also represented the largest restructuring of the Bundeswehr since its foundation. Conscription , which had existed since July 1956, was suspended from July 2011.
On October 26th, Defense Minister Thomas de Maizière presented the Bundeswehr deployment concept , which stipulated that 31 of the 394 Bundeswehr locations should be closed and 90 significantly reduced. In 2011, the Bundeswehr had around 7,000 soldiers deployed abroad.
Wulff affair
With the accusation of incorrectly answering an inquiry regarding the financing of his own home in the Lower Saxony state parliament in 2010, an affair began in December 2011 with the then Federal President Christian Wulff , which led to his resignation in February 2012. The allegations intensified after it became known that Wulff had tried to influence reporting by the Bild newspaper with a phone call . In the following weeks, Wulff was confronted with further allegations of accepting benefits. He announced his resignation on February 17, 2012.
State Trojan affair
In October, the Chaos Computer Club published the result of its analysis of the leaked state Trojan , sparking a controversial domestic political debate. The software, which was commissioned by the Bavarian State Government and developed by DigiTask , enabled the investigative authorities to reload any monitoring modules and copy intimate data, which, however, contradicted the limits set by the Federal Constitutional Court. In addition, gross design and implementation errors would have led to glaring security gaps.
household
The federal budget was in 2011 is lower by five billion euro debt recorded as first thought. The reasons were higher tax revenues (due to a better economy) and low capital market interest rates . According to the Ministry of Finance, the federal government received EUR 248.1 billion more in tax revenue than expected. At the same time, spending on non-employed people was lower.
FDP crisis
For the FDP , which is part of the government, 2011 was the beginning of an ongoing crisis. After foreign minister, vice chancellor and party chairman Guido Westerwelle was exposed to increasing criticism of his office, he did not run again as party chairman at the party congress on May 13 and thus gave up the office. Economy Minister Rainer Brüderle took over the chairmanship of the parliamentary group, Philipp Rösler became party leader, economy minister and vice chancellor. Rösler's successor as Minister of Health was Daniel Bahr . In surveys, the party fell to around three percent despite the change in personnel. On December 14th, the then General Secretary Christian Lindners resigned from his position.
The FDP suffered significant losses in all of the seven state elections in 2011, which meant that it failed to pass the five percent hurdle in Saxony-Anhalt, Rhineland-Palatinate, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania and Berlin and no longer entered the parliaments there could move in.
Turbulence among the Greens
Alliance 90 / The Greens were able to record the highest approval ratings in their history due to the Fukushima nuclear disaster and the protest against Stuttgart 21 . In polls, the party achieved up to 28 percent. The number of members also rose to 59,000 at the end of the year, which was the largest increase in the party's history. With the state elections in Baden-Württemberg , the Greens were able to appoint a Minister-President for the first time in Winfried Kretschmann . However, the attempt to achieve a similar success with Renate Künast in the election for the Berlin House of Representatives failed . In surveys, the party's values fell again to 14 to 17 percent and the Berlin regional association got caught up in internal disputes.

After the state election in Baden-Württemberg a week later , which was particularly influenced by the protest against Stuttgart 21 and the extension of the service life of German nuclear power plants , the CDU had to hand over government responsibility to a coalition of the Greens and SPD after 58 years. Winfried Kretschmann became the first Green Prime Minister of a German state . At the same time, the state elections were held in Rhineland-Palatinate , with the SPD losing almost ten percent and the Greens moving into parliament with over ten percent more votes.
