The BDP has one member of the Federal Council, nine of the National Council, and one of the Council of States. It was founded as a moderate splinter group from the national conservative Swiss People's Party (SVP), and was founded as a political party on the federal level on 1 November 2008.〔(Die BDP Schweiz Wird am 1 November Gegruendet ) ''NZZ''〕 It is led by Martin Landolt, and has one Federal Councillor, Eveline Widmer-Schlumpf, whose election in defiance of the SVP incumbent Christoph Blocher led to the creation of the party. It comprises most of the SVP's old centrist-agrarian wing, which had been overshadowed in recent years by its nationalist-activist wing. The party's name in German, French, Italian and Romansh comes from "bourgeois," the traditional European term for a centre-right party. ==Foundation== Soon after Widmer-Schlumpf's election as a Federal Councillor, the SVP excluded both her and the SVP's other Federal Councillor, Samuel Schmid, from the party group. Schmid, like Widmer-Schlumpf, was a member of the SVP's moderate wing, and the SVP's dominant national wing reckoned them both as unrepresentative of the SVP'S populist campaigns. Some SVP members demanded that Widmer-Schlumpf and Schmid be thrown out of the party altogether. However, Swiss parties are legally federations of cantonal parties, and the SVP could not expel them directly. For them to have been expelled, the party's Graubünden and Bern sections, to which Widmer-Schlumpf and Schmid belong respectively, would have had to expel them. On 2 April 2008 the national SVP leadership called upon Widmer-Schlumpf to resign from the Federal Council at once and to leave the party. When Widmer-Schlumpf declined to do so, the national SVP demanded that that the Graubünden branch expel her. The Graubünden section stood by Widener-Schlumpf, and was expelled from the national SVP on June 1. On 16 June 2008, the delegates' convention of the SVP's former Graubünden branch reorganised itself as the first cantonal section of the BDP, changing its name to ''BPS Graubünden''. A second cantonal section was founded in Bern on 21 June 2008 under the name BDP;〔〔(Abspaltung von der Berner SVP vollzogen (Schweiz, NZZ Online) )〕 the change from BPS to BDP was due to a name conflict with the extant minor party ''Bürgerpartei Schweiz'' (Citizen's Party of Switzerland), which has the same acronym ''BPS''. As a result, the ''BPS Graubünden'' also changed its name to ''BDP Graubünden''.〔(espace.ch - SVP-Spaltung perfekt )〕〔(Bündner SVP-Abspaltung übernimmt Namen der Berner (Schweiz, NZZ Online) )〕 Soon afterward, nearly all of the SVP's Bern section, including Schmid, defected to the new party. Eleven other cantonal branches have been founded, predominantly in German-speaking Switzerland: Aargau, Basel-Landschaft, Fribourg, Glarus, Lucerne, Schwyz, Solothurn, St. Gallen, Thurgau, Valais, and Zürich. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Conservative Democratic Party of Switzerland」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
