The council is funded by taxpayers.[1]It defines itself as a point of contact for the politics and administration of the German federal government, the German federal states, and the European Union in all cultural policy matters that overlap the individual branches of the German Cultural Council. Its purpose is to bring cross-sectoral issues into cultural policy discussions at all government levels, and “to advocate freedom of the arts, publications and information.”[2] In 2018, it called for German talkshows to be shut down for one year.Table of Contents (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4History[edit]Organization[edit]Calls for shutting down political talkshows in Germany[edit]References[edit]History[edit]The association was founded in 1981 as a response to the German Federal government which wanted to abolish the reduced VAT tax on books and visual media. Fifteen artist and retailer associations succeeded in their protests and next founded the council. Its main source of funding is German federal funds. Membership fees and the sale of books on cultural policy provide are a minimal part of its income.[3]Since its inception, it was established that the Cultural Council should become an “umbrella organization of umbrella organizations”. In 1995, the working group was transferred to the fixed and more effective structure of a non-profit association. Early in the new millennium, it became the recognized umbrella organization of the federal cultural associations.In July 2012, the association published the first edition of its “Cultural Red List”\u00a0 to publicize threatened or closed cultural institutions such as theaters, museums, initiatives, clubs, programs or movie houses. The analogy is with, for example, the IUCN Red List.\u00a0 It is published in the in-house journal Politik & Kultur.[4]Organization[edit]The association is features eight sections according to subject-specific subdivisions, which in turn consist of a total of 246 federal associations.[5]Includes: ARD, Bundesverband Musikindustrie, among othersRat f\u00fcr darstellende Kunst und TanzDeutsche LiteraturkonferenzDeutscher KunstratRat f\u00fcr Baukultur und DenkmalkulturIncludes: Association of German Architects, among otherSektion DesignSektion Film, Rundfunk und Audiovisuelle MedienRat f\u00fcr Soziokultur und kulturelle BildungEach of these eight independent sections is represented in the Speaker’s Council and in the Assembly of Delegates of the German Cultural Council, the annual Plenum. From the circle of the Speaker’s council the board of the Speaker’s council is elected every two years. From 2001 to 2013, Max Fuchs was the chairman of the Speaker’s Council. On March 12, 2013, Christian H\u00f6ppner was unanimously elected as the new honorary president.[6]The managing director (since March 1997: Olaf Zimmermann[7]) coordinates the work of the association and implements the resolutions of the executive committee, the plenum and the speaker council. He maintains contacts with politicians and administrates and develops plans and projects. The experts in the specialist committees of the German Cultural Council draw up recommendations and statements that identify areas of cultural and media policy problems and identify perspectives for action.The German Cultural Council is a member of the European Movement International.Calls for shutting down political talkshows in Germany[edit]In June 2018, the Council called for political talkshows to be suspended for one year,[8][9][10] and be replaced with “more suitable contents with regards to social cohesion”. A spokesman for public broadcaster ARD replied “We believe the talk shows are an enriching part of our programming.”[11]References[edit] (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4"},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki41\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Enzyklop\u00e4die"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki41\/german-cultural-council-wikipedia\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"German Cultural Council – Wikipedia"}}]}]
