Schiller Institute
The Schiller Institute, Association for Statecraft e. V. , is a registered association with its seat in Hanover , which can be added to the political movement of Lyndon LaRouche .
The Schiller Institute was founded in 1984 to "strengthen Germany's friendship with all peoples of the world and to enforce the principles of international law based on natural law in interstate relations," according to its statutes . The founder and chairwoman of the Schiller Institute is Helga Zepp-LaRouche . Other Schiller Institutes have now been founded in many countries around the world.
criticism
Both the Schiller Institute and the civil rights movement Solidarity , which is closely related to it, are, according to the assessment of the Federal Association for Sect and Psycho-Market Advice, in response to a Bundestag request from Bündnis 90 / Die Grünen, as well as other experts and journalists, part of a political sect that has conspiracy-theoretical and partly anti-Semitic content aim at a total capture of their members.
The death of conference attendee Jeremiah Duggan
On November 6, 2003, a British investigation alleged that the Schiller Institute was "a political sect with sinister and dangerous connections" Jeremiah Duggan , a 22-year-old British Jewish student who died in controversial circumstances in March 2003, at that time had attended a conference of the Schiller Institute and a cadre school of the Lyndon LaRouche youth movement in Wiesbaden. Investigations by the German police revealed that Jeremiah had committed suicide, a position still supported by prosecutors. An investigation in the UK contradicted this ruling after hearing witnesses regarding the Schiller Institute.
In November 2008, the London Higher Court granted Jeremiah Duggan's family a judicial resolution of the Attorney General's decision to conduct a second judicial investigation on the grounds of "unusual features".
In June 2015, the Wiesbadener Kurier responded to the allegations made by the British press and Jeremiah's mother against the work of the German judiciary:
"The student [Jeremiah Duggan] ran to his death, and that's the bitter part of the truth."
Another preliminary investigation in Germany, the start of which was ordered by the Frankfurt Higher Regional Court in 2012 , was discontinued by the Wiesbaden public prosecutor in March 2018.
