Why not a critic-part?

edit

In the page of the US Supreme Court it give a interesst and fair part for critics about the system. Why not here? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.61.71.104 (talk) 20:18, 11 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

It's not that easy to compare the Bundesverfassungsgericht with the US Supreme Court and maybe there isn't that much to complain about. 213.102.93.105 (talk) 18:33, 20 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
Politicians will sometimes complain that it decides too much in details, but it is generally acknowledged that this is rather a failure of politics to get these details straight on their own, than "judicial activism" in the US sense of the word. However, I hold some of its decisions which pass a long the line of a "religious neutrality", not demanded by the Basic Law or, as I perceive, a law on federal level, and directly contradicting some Länder constitutions, on a wrong way. Most notably the Crucifix decision. --91.34.238.47 (talk) 16:47, 11 August 2011 (UTC)Reply
There are certainly decisions by this court that deserve criticism, I for instance think that the Incest-Decision or Osho&Glykol are wrong. And I also think that it's possible to find "valid" criticism of its decisions. However there isn't even a list or subsection of important decisions. And general criticism of the institution or its general behavior is very rare. So I'd agree with the User that answered before me. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.194.172.252 (talk) 20:52, 13 December 2011 (UTC)Reply
There is a considerable amount of criticism, mostly about it being active as a substitute legislature (Ersatzgesetzgeber) as well as it overreaching in its protection.

Landmark decisions

edit

I started to implement the landmark decisions of the court. Due to not beeing a native English speeker, I welcome any review of the section. --PaxTerra (talk) 20:18, 1 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

To this: as a native german speaker, there is a fairly large list of landmark cases on the german Wikipedia article de:Bundesverfassungsgericht, I think this should be outsourced into a separate article that could be translated, perhaps Landmark cases of the Federal Constitutional Court or something along those lines. The german wiki page provides sources to each case and their implications.
