On April 3, 2023, Aspen Germany hosted the second virtual meeting for the participating American state legislators of its Laboratories of Democracy Initiative and welcomed Dr. Matthias Diermeier, Head of Research Unit Democracy, Society, Market Economy at the German Economic Institute, as an expert and speaker. Dr. Diermeier’s presentation and the subsequent joint exchange addressed governance in Germany at the federal, state, and local level to lay the foundation for all upcoming discussions in this project. It gave the eight state legislators from the United States the opportunity to learn more about the German political system and the distribution of power and responsibilities. With regard to the focus topic of the third round of exchanges, a special emphasis was placed on structural transformation.
The project is supported by the Transatlantic Program of the Federal Republic of Germany, funded by the European Recovery Program (ERP) of the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action (BMWK).
