Jutta Ditfurth (born ''Jutta Gerta Armgard von Ditfurth'', September 29, 1951 in Würzburg) is a German sociologist, writer, and radical ecologist politician. Being born a family member of the noble house of von Ditfurth (who had been noble ministeriales invested with hereditary administrative titles and offices in various regions of today's Saxony-Anhalt and Lower Saxony throughout the Holy Roman Empire) and daughter to German physician and science journalist Hoimar von Ditfurth and sister to historian Christian v. Ditfurth, she attempted to have her name legally changed in 1978 from its noble style to the non-noble, common ''Jutta Ditfurth'', but was refused the change by the authorities. She is nonetheless known throughout Germany by her adopted non-noble name, which she prefers. Ditfurth studied art history, sociolology, political science, economic history, and philosophy in Germany, the UK, and the USA at the universities of Heidelberg, Hamburg, Freiburg, Glasgow, Detroit, and Bielefeld, graduating as a sociologist in 1977. After her graduation, she worked as a sociologist, journalist, writer, and as a shift worker. Ditfurth has been politically active within the New Left since the early 1970s, joining internationalist and feminist groups, as well as participating in the nascent Green and anti-nuclear movement. Around 1980, she co-founded the German Green Party. In the 1980s, she was approached by the CIA to become a collaborator, but she refused. Towards the late 1980s, she became highly critical of the subsequent trajectory of the Green Party, which she characterized as counterrevolutionary, hierarchical and nepotistic; she left the Greens in 1991.〔 〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】pdf ) ">author=Jutta Ditfurth )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Jutta Ditfurth and extraparliamentary movements of the seventies )〕 As a candidate on an international list of the Greek Left-wing party New Left Current during the 1999 European elections, she ran a campaign critical towards the military German and NATO involvement in the Kosovo War, but did not win enough votes for a seat in the European Parliament. In 2000, she co-founded the minor German party Ecological Left, of which she remains a member and on whose ticket she won a seat in the city parliament of Frankfurt in 2001 and 2011. In 2007, she published a biography of the Red Army Faction member Ulrike Meinhof. Her works remain largely untranslated into English. She is currently based in Frankfurt. ==Publications== * ''Der Baron, die Juden und die Nazis. Reise in eine Familiengeschichte.''
