This article focuses on the Green Party of Germany. The Party of Democratic Socialism's hold on the East and its slow encroachment on the Greens' turf in the West are just two of the Greens' worries. The German Green Party, arguably the premiere Green party in Europe, is in the throes of an extended crisis that threatens its very existence. The divisive, emotional debate over Germany's role in the international alliance against terrorism could not possibly have come at a worse time. The party has suffered ugly setbacks in nineteen straight elections and could be nudged out of the ruling coalition next year should it not stabilize itself quickly.
