Life

After graduating from high school in 1973, Kleinert studied politics, German and history in Marburg. After the state examination, he worked from 1981 to 1983 as a research assistant at the Institute for Sociology there , specializing in "New Social Movements". Kleinert wrote his dissertation on the development of the green party and published it in 1992 as a book ("Aufstieg und Fall der Grünen", Dietz).

As a schoolboy - the son of a master baker who was close to the CDU - he was a member of the SPD for two years, and then of the Greens from 1982 . On the Hessian state list in 1983 he was one of the first members of the Bundestag of the Greens (10th  electoral term until January 19, 1986, elected by rotation , and 11th electoral term) and was state chairman in Hesse from 2000 to 2002. He demonstratively resigned when he was denied a safe place on the list for the state election. In July 2008, Kleinert aroused diverse opposition in the party when he told Spiegel : "An extension of the running times for modern nuclear power plants seems to me, given a rational risk assessment, thoroughly debatable." In his opinion, the profits from this should be invested in renewable energies. Green parliamentary group leader Renate Künast called this "naive"; the Green Youth saw an "open surrender to the nuclear lobby".

Kleinert was considered a confidante of Joschka Fischer and a pioneer of red-green . Similar to Fischer, he associated the war in Yugoslavia with the beginning of the Second World War and thus initiated the moral duty of German military operations, leaving the party behind from traditional pacifism . While Fischer and Kleinert were considered companions, it still seems to have been more of a political friendship that was always shaped by the fascination of the other, but also by mistrust. Among other things through his work as parliamentary managing director, the shrewd speaker Kleinert with Otto Schily and Joschka Fischer was considered a pillar of the realpolitical-pragmatic wing of the party as well as the parliamentary group of the Greens.

After his final resignation from the Bundestag in 1990, Kleinert worked during the time of the red-green state government as a policy officer in the Hessian Ministry of the Environment , from 1996 as a consultant in the representation of the state of Hesse in Bonn . Then he concentrated on his work as a university lecturer.

Hubert Kleinert is the father of a daughter.
