Minderheitsfraktionen
Minderheitsfraktionen are political groups within a legislative body that do not hold a majority of seats. Their influence and operational capacity can vary significantly depending on the specific parliamentary system and the political landscape. In many democratic systems, minority parties or factions play a crucial role in the legislative process, acting as a check on the power of the majority and contributing to public discourse through debate and proposing alternative policies.
The effectiveness of a Minderheitsfraktion is often tied to its ability to negotiate and build coalitions
In some parliamentary systems, proportional representation electoral systems tend to foster a greater number of Minderheitsfraktionen,
