416. Where can you obtain information on political topics in Rhineland-Palatinate?
Official German wording
Wo können Sie sich in Rheinland-Pfalz über politische Themen informieren?
Answer options
Correct answer
at the State Agency for Civic Education
Explanation
The appropriate point of contact is the State Agency for Civic Education of Rhineland-Palatinate, a state-level institution for political education. Its mandate derives from the democratic principle in Article 20 of the Basic Law and is implemented under the Länder’s cultural sovereignty; substantively it is bound to non-partisanship and pluralism (Beutelsbach Consensus). Churches and consumer advice centers serve religious and consumer-protection functions, while the municipal public order office handles regulatory policing—not civic education.
