Johann Ludwig Schumacher (born February 11, 1796 in Doberan ; † November 5, 1855 in Schwerin ) was a German fiscal official and parliamentarian.
Life
Johann Ludwig Schumacher was the son of the first civil servant in Doberan and came from a Mecklenburg civil servant family. He studied at the University of Rostock . As an administrative lawyer and chamber councilor, he developed a particular interest in the agricultural structure of Mecklenburg and the state's financial constitution. As a secret chamber councilor, he became head of the revision department he had newly formed and the first statistical office in Mecklenburg-Schwerin, which he designed in close collaboration with the Prussian statistician Friedrich Wilhelm von Reden .
In the 1840s he fought with his friends Johann Heinrich von Thünen and Friedrich Pogge against the still existing feudal constitution and for a free peasant class as the basis of a modern agricultural constitution and for an agricultural business administration.
In 1848 he was elected in the constituency of Mecklenburg-Schwerin 43 as a liberal in the Mecklenburg Assembly of Representatives and at the same time a member of the Ministry of Finance. The liberal attitudes of its parliamentary group did not stand up to the more radical positions of the left in this parliament. His ministry was dissolved as a result of the Freienwalder arbitration award .
He was an active member of the Mecklenburg Patriotic Association , which campaigned for the improvement of the agricultural framework.
