program
The German HP presented itself programmatically as a left-liberal, grassroots democratic party, the content of which was mainly based on the ideas of silos . In terms of content, a model of a “solidary and nonviolent society” is primarily represented, with HP working on all policy fields on the basis of the “New Humanism” designed by Silo , according to its motto: “Nothing above people and no person below another.” all nonviolent actions against violence and discrimination were advocated. Specifically, the HP campaigned in its party program for minority rights, priority for health and education and against privatization in these areas. Advocating a more just economic model was a key concern that would fundamentally change the relationship between capital and labor so that profits could be shared among all. The party campaigned for the integration of foreigners and aimed its program primarily at young voters.
organization
The party did not have a comprehensive organizational structure. There were regional associations in Bavaria, Berlin and North Rhine-Westphalia.
elections
For the first time, HP ran for the state elections in North Rhine-Westphalia in 1985 . Eight state parliament, two European and four federal elections followed . Protest campaigns against the Humanist Party initiated by student representatives, the Protestant Church and left-wing circles led to an almost complete withdrawal of the party by the mid-1990s.
