Max Dibbern

Max Dibbern (born June 6, 1889 in Stuttgart , † 1972 ) was a German politician of the FDP .

Life and work

Max Dibbern was a businessman by profession. During the time of National Socialism he joined the liberal resistance group Group Q , the later group Free Hamburg , around Friedrich Ablass . After the Second World War he became involved in the German Peace Society and initially also in the association of those persecuted by the Nazi regime , from which he resigned in February 1950 because of the growing communist influence.

Political party

In 1945, Dibbern was one of the founders of the Free Democratic Party , from which the Hamburg FDP regional association emerged. There he became chairman of the Niendorf - Lokstedt - Schnelsen district association . From the end of 1949 he participated within the Hamburg FDP in the Democratic Circle , in which the left wing of the state party came together.

On January 20, 1951, Dibbern and Harald Abatz , Emmy Beckmann , Lieselotte Anders , Anton Leser and Hans-Harder Biermann-Ratjen were among the signatories of the appeal for a liberal collection by Edgar Engelhard , who opposed the plans of the regional associations of North Rhine-Westphalia Lower Saxony and Hesse decided to turn the FDP into a party of the National Collection.

In the mid-1950s, Dibbern resigned from the FDP and joined the SPD , although he did not hold any offices.

MP

After Dibbern ran in vain in the Niendorf constituency in 1946 , he was elected to the Hamburg parliament in 1949 in the Lokstedt constituency. He was a member of parliament until 1953, when it was not reestablished.
