history

The RHV was founded on May 16, 1989 in Munich in the fraternity house of the Danubia Munich fraternity by 40 students. Alexander von Schrenck-Notzing (son of Caspar von Schrenck-Notzing ), Hans-Ulrich Kopp and Alexander Wolf were elected as the three chairmen . The first public meeting of the RHV took place in July 1989 in the Löwenbräukeller in Munich with the participation of the Chairman of the Republicans, Franz Schönhuber . This had recognized the RHV as the official student association of the Republicans. As recently as 1989, regional groups were founded in Freiburg, Kiel and Munich as well as in ten other universities. a. in Frankfurt and Marburg. The local groups of the extreme right-wing association sometimes appeared in public as "independent and grassroots democratic". The association remained below its self-imposed goals and last had 250 members. He was in direct competition with the right-wing extremist ring of liberal students (rfs). The "content-related objectives [Republican University Association] hardly differed from those of the RFS". There were close contacts with the right-wing extremist All - German Students' Association (GDS) of the Association of Expellees, as well as with the Republicans and other fraternities . Occasionally right-wing conservative members of the Ring of Christian Democratic Students (RCDS) defected to the RHV. The RHV mainly addressed German - nationally minded students from noble academic families. In terms of political content, the association pursued national interests and stood in opposition to the goals of the lesbian and gay and peace movements . In the longer term, the would-be academics should prepare a coalition of the Republicans as the fourth party with the CSU , but this failed because of the resistance of the CSU. Since the student association could not move into any student body, it dissolved itself again in April 1990 with a two-thirds majority. Especially the right-wing extremist orientation of the Republicans under Schönhuber was controversial among the members. The federal association was formally retained, but the individual local groups were wound up. The association was re-established in 1997 by the fraternity of Normannia-Leipzig zu Marburg , which made it into the student parliament (StuPa) at the Philipps University of Marburg with two candidates in 1997 and 1998 . In reports of the Office for the Protection of the Constitution, the RHV is listed as a sub-organization of the Republicans until 2005.
