You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 52.91.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪JJMC89‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 05:26, 2 September 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

=== Programmatic development ===
After its foundation, the "5+1 Challenges" were adopted for the parent organization Volt Europa.<ref>((Cite web|title=The 5+1 Challenges of Volt Europa|url=https://www.volteuropa.org/challenges|access-date=2021-09-26|website=Volt Europa|language=en-EU|archive-date=19 June 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220619174837/https://www.volteuropa.org/challenges|url-status=dead))</ref> Soon afterwards, the European basic programme ''Mapping of Policies'' was adopted, which serves as the basis for the creation of all Volt programmes.<ref>((Cite web|last=Cahen-Salvador|first=Colombe|date=2019-08-03|title=How do you come up with a pan-European political identity? — 31.08.2018|url=https://medium.com/@colombe.cahensalvador/our-mapping-of-policies-is-out-31-08-2018-f5bb41d87897|access-date=2021-09-26|website=Medium|language=en))</ref> Volt Europa finally stood for the European elections in 2019 with the election programme derived from the European policy programme, the Amsterdam Declaration. Since then, the ''Mapping of Policies'' has been accompanied by several thematic documents. Together with the ''Mapping of Policies'', these documents form the so-called ''Policy Portfolio'', from which all national, regional and local programmes are derived.

On 22 December 2020, Volt Germany presented the basic policy programme adapted to Germany on the basis of the ''Mapping of Policies'' and later developed the election programme for the [[2021 German federal election|2021 Bundestag elections]] from it.<ref>((Cite web|last=Horstkötter|first=Sira|date=2019-12-09|title=Friederike Schier von VOLT-Deutschland im Gespräch Seite 1 von 0 ((!))

=== Programme ===

==== European policy ====
Volt sees the European Union (EU) as the most successful intergovernmental project since the [[World War II|Second World War]], enabling Europe's citizens to live in peace, freedom and prosperity. At the same time, Volt believes that the often outdated, entrenched political structures of the EU are increasingly reaching their limits when facing current and future challenges. Volt is convinced that these challenges cannot be met effectively by addressing them alone and at a national level, but only with stronger integration and more European democracy.<ref name=":0">((Cite web|author-link=Voltdeutschland.org|title=Wahlprogramm Bundestagswahl 2021|url=https://assets.volteuropa.org/2021-09/Volt-BTW21-Wahlprogramm.pdf|access-date=2021-09-26|website=Volt Deutschland|language=de))</ref>

In Volt's view, the reform of the European Union must begin with the reform of its bodies and institutions.<ref name=":1">((Cite web|author-link=Voltdeutschland.org|title=Volt Deutschland Grundsatzprogramm|url=https://assets.volteuropa.org/inline-images/zFTsf3zbBqoTHpkvvIS8GSXMaCO0tjXnqfahLbiE28VR1Vhz2M.pdf|access-date=2021-09-26|website=voltdeutschland.org|publisher=Volt Deutschland|language=de))</ref> Volt calls for an EU of and by its citizens with reformed electoral law and more participation, in which the directly elected parliament and not individual heads of state and government decide the common future.<ref name=":0" /> Volt's goal is a European federal republic that should be able to meet current challenges((snd))from [[climate change]] to mobility transformation and [[Digital transformation|digitalisation]], to [[social inequality]].<ref name=":3">((Cite news|last=Jestadt|first=Julian|date=2021-07-09|title=Kleinpartei Volt tritt erstmals an: Der Traum von mehr Europa|language=de|work=Die Tageszeitung: taz|url=https://taz.de/!5783011/|access-date=2021-09-26|issn=0931-9085))</ref> This also includes a common European army, instead of many national ones.<ref name="Kleinwächter">((Cite web|last=Kleinwächter|first=Vanessa|date=2021-09-24|title=Volt: The new pro-Europe party on the block|url=https://www.exberliner.com/api/content/941d824a-1d17-11ec-87f0-1244d5f7c7c6/|access-date=2021-10-05|website=EXBERLINER.com|language=en-us))((Dead link|date=March 2024 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes ))</ref>

==== Climate policy ====
Volt aims to make Germany [[Net zero emissions|((CO2))-neutral]] by 2035 and climate-neutral by 2040.<ref name=":3"/> The party's strategy consists of an holistic approach,<ref name=":4">((Cite web|title=Bundestagswahlkampf: Grün — und liberal?

For Volt, climate policy is a cross-cutting issue. It is important to the party that climate policy is designed in a socially compatible way and that the economy is set up in an economically as well as ecologically sustainable way. In order to achieve the goal of comprehensive decarbonisation, the party calls for an increase in the [[Carbon price|((CO2)) price]].<ref>((Cite web|date=2021-09-20|title=Landwirtschaft, Familie, CO2-Preis: Das wollen kleinere Parteien|url=https://www.br.de/nachrichten/deutschland-welt/landwirtschaft-familie-co2-preis-das-wollen-kleinere-parteien,SjYFSRl|access-date=2021-09-26|website=BR24|language=de))</ref> At the end of the holistic transformation there should be a [[circular economy]].<ref name=":2">((Cite web|last=Schmälter|first=Julia|title=Volt Deutschland (Volt)|url=https://www.bpb.de/politik/wahlen/wer-steht-zur-wahl/europawahl-2019/289341/volt|access-date=2021-09-26|website=bpb.de|language=de))</ref> The party emphasises the importance of social cohesion in the course of the transformation to climate neutrality.

==== Social policy ====
Volt strives for a community of solidarity in which [[social mobility]] and participation in [[prosperity]] of all citizens is improved. To this end, destigmatized and appropriate social security systems that enable people to [[Public participation|participate in society]] and plan their individual lives are to be created. The core issue in this context is the common good-oriented economy in order to counteract the social divide.<ref name=":0" /> According to Volt, the [[Labour economics|labour market]] is too bureaucratic, contains unclear legal regulations, sets the wrong incentives and lacks protection. The party, therefore, wants to create a new framework and improve employment relationships. Volt wants to reform the education system to a large extent and plans the "school of the future".<ref>((Cite web|last=Redaktion|date=2021-08-31|title=Direktkandidat*innen-Check: Paul Loeper (Volt Deutschland)|url=https://www.prenzlauerberg-nachrichten.de/2021/08/31/direktkandidatinnen-check-paul-loeper-volt-deutschland/|access-date=2021-09-26|website=Prenzlauer Berg Nachrichten|language=de-DE))</ref>
[[File:2019 ColognePride - CSD-Parade-8831.jpg|thumb|219x219px|Volt at the CSD in Cologne 2019]]
The party is against [[discrimination]] of any kind and calls for direct support for those affected, [[Inclusion (disability rights)|inclusion]] of people with disabilities and plans to combat racism and antisemitism.<ref name=":0" /> With a progressive migration policy the party wants to ensure that migration is organized in a humane way and that refugees are able to improve their opportunities for participation.<ref name=":2" />

Volt calls for a progressive [[Right of asylum|asylum]] and immigration policy that consistently implements the human right to asylum and finds transparent regulations for immigration. Volt wants the EU to evolve in this area and achieve a common asylum policy.<ref name=":0" />

==== Economic and financial policy ====
Volt judges the climate crisis and growing social inequalities to be the greatest dangers for the continent and Germany.<ref name=":1" /> Therefore, Volt combines green, liberal, and social elements in its economic policy.<ref name=":4" /> Its self-declared goal is an "ecologically-social and economically sustainable economy", a "sustainable and generation-appropriate market economy [...] that sees opportunities instead of obstacles in [[low-carbon economy|decarbonization]], entrepreneurship, and digitalization."<ref name=":0" /> The party's economic policy is based on the principle of "sustainable development".

At the European level, the party wants to harmonize the EU's tax systems and reduce intra-European tax competition.<ref name=":0" />
[[File:Wahlplakate für Volt Partei Bonn 2021.jpg|thumb|259x259px|Election Posters [[2021 German federal election|Federal Election 2021]]]]
Volt demands the burden on small and medium incomes to be reduced.<ref name=":1" /> [[Bureaucracy]] must also be reduced and corporate tax rates lowered "towards a medium European level". In return, higher incomes should be taxed more heavily, as should profit from capital. Additionally, inheritance tax should be comprehensively reformed.<ref name=":3" />

==== Digital policy ====
In terms of digital policy, Volt advocates the nationwide expansion of [[Broadband|broadband connections]] and has set itself the goal of consistently digitizing the administration along the [[X-Road|lines of Estonia]]. To this end, Volt plans to establish a Ministry for Digital Affairs, to which the Federal Office for Information Security would be subordinated.<ref name=":0" />

In Volt's view, states should use the technological possibilities of our time to update public services in areas such as education, health care, and the judiciary.<ref name=":1" />

At the European level, Volt opposes the use of upload filters and instead advocates for a unified European [[Copyright|copyright law]]. Volt also calls for a safe and precautionary approach to [[artificial intelligence]] (AI), as well as ethical guidelines for AI research and use.<ref name=":1" />

== History ==
In 2016, Andrea Venzon from [[Italy]], Colombe Cahen-Salvador from [[France]] and [[Damian Boeselager]] from [[Germany]] were living and studying in the United States. Dismayed by the shift to the right and rising nationalism in Europe and the US, culminating in the [[2016 United Kingdom European Union membership referendum|Brexit referendum]] and [[2016 United States presidential election|Trump's election]], among other things, they decided to found a European citizens' movement.<ref name="fr.de"/> On 29 March 2017,<ref>((Cite web|title=Parlamentsneuling Damian Boeselager - Auf einmal mit Berlusconi, Strache und Farage in einem Raum|url=https://www.deutschlandfunkkultur.de/parlamentsneuling-damian-boeselager-auf-einmal-mit.990.de.html?dram:article_id=450556|access-date=2021-09-26|website=Deutschlandfunk Kultur|language=de-DE))</ref> the day the UK declared [[Withdrawal from the European Union|Brexit Article 50]], the non-profit association ''Vox Europa A.I.S.B.L.''<ref name=":5">((Cite web|last=Hebenstreit|first=Jörg|title=Volt Deutschland ((!))

Due to legal regulations, it was and is not possible to found a European party. In order to be able to participate in elections, Volt had to found national parties. In March 2018, the party Volt Germany was founded as the first national offshoot of Volt Europa.<ref name=":5" /> ((As of |2021|09|27)), Volt Europa is active in 29 countries, and officially registered as parties in 16 of them.<ref>((Cite web|title=The Pan-European Political Movement|url=https://www.volteuropa.org/|access-date=2021-09-26|website=Volt Europa|language=en-EU))</ref>

''Volt Hamburg'' was the first national association of Volt Germany to be founded in late 2019. By April 2021, the founding of the other 15 state associations followed, so that Volt Germany is now organized nationwide in state associations.

Volt's first elections were the [[2019 European Parliament election|2019 European elections]]. Due to different national registration requirements, Volt was able to participate in the elections in only eight member states. Volt contested with the same election programme, the Amsterdam Declaration, in all eight countries.

As a result, the leading candidate Damian Boeselager entered the EU Parliament.<ref name="auto"/>

Volt views itself not only as a party, but also as a citizens' movement. Several initiatives, NGOs, etc. were founded, initiated or supported by Volt Europa and Volt Germany. These include the now independent aid organisation #EuropeCares,<ref>((Cite web|title=Europecares - Hilfe für Moria!|url=https://www.voltdeutschland.org/blog/europecares|access-date=2021-09-26|website=Volt Deutschland|language=de-DE))</ref> the initiative and petition #StopHomelessness,<ref>((Cite web|title=Stop Homelessness|url=https://www.volteuropa.org/actions/stophomelessness|access-date=2021-09-26|website=Volt Europa|language=en-EU))</ref> the initiative #ValuesOverPower, which campaigns against corruption and for the rule of law, as well as the [[European Citizens' Initiative|European citizens' initiative]] EUrotrain.<ref>((Cite web|title=Eurotrain Initiative by Volt|url=https://www.volteuropa.org/eurotrain|access-date=2021-09-26|website=Volt Europa|language=en-EU))</ref>

In the [[2021 German federal election|federal election on 26 September 2021]], Volt received 0.2 % of the first votes and 0.4 % of the second votes and thus did not win a mandate.

Professor Dorothea de Nève, a political scientist at the [[University of Giessen]], attests that Volt appeals in particular to a younger and educated electorate to whom Europe is important.<ref name=":6" /> However, the party does not only want to appeal to a young, urban and educated clientele, but underpins its ambitions to reach as broad a spectrum of people as possible with its programs.<ref>((Cite web|title=Bunt, jung, radikal europäisch: Wie die Kleinpartei Volt bis zur Bundestagswahl aufholen will|url=https://www.watson.de/!530491126|access-date=2021-09-26|website=watson.de|language=de))</ref> With its pragmatic and evidence-based approach, Volt also appeals to people who are less concerned with arguing about ideologies and criticize the lack of effectiveness of politics in dealing with crises, according to Professor Thomas Zittel of [[Goethe University Frankfurt|Goethe University in Frankfurt]].

With its program and the focus on the topic of Europe, Volt is stepping into a political gap, according to Professor Edgar Grande, a political scientist from Berlin. Up until now, Europe has been the subject of EU skeptics in particular. The rest of the program, too, is a "very serious attempt to draw up a catalog of values for a progressive movement in the 21st century."<ref>((Cite web|title=Nur ein Strohfeuer oder Potential für den Bundestag – Was steckt hinter der Volt-Partei?|url=https://www.stern.de/politik/ausland/-potential-fuer-den-bundestag--was-hinter-der-volt-partei-steckt-30453908.html|access-date=2021-09-26|website=stern.de|date=27 March 2021 |language=de))</ref>

== Organisation ==
The organizational structure of Volt Germany follows that of classical parties. Special features of the organisational structure can be traced back to the pan-European character, which results in a transnational participation and organisational structure, which comes into play especially in the formulation of political positions and programmes.<ref name=":5" /> The federal association is made up of the federal executive committee and a federal finance council. Both, the executive committee and a court of arbitration, and an auditor are elected at the federal party conference.<ref name=":7">((Cite web|author-link=Voltdeutschland.org|title=Satzung Volt Deutschland|url=https://assets.volteuropa.org/2021-01/2020_12_12_Satzung_Volt_Deutschland.pdf|website=Volt Deutschland))</ref>

The party subdivides itself into state associations and for the first time contested in the 2021 federal election in all federal states with state lists.<ref>((Cite web|last=Goldmann|first=Anne|title=Volt Deutschland ((!))
