The party was founded in 2007 as the merger of the Party of Democratic Socialism (PDS) and the Electoral Alternative for Labour and Social Justice (WASG). Since mid-2012, its co-chairs have been Katja Kipping and Bernd Riexinger. In the Bundestag the party has 64 out of 630 seats after polling 8.6% of the vote in the 2013 federal elections.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Wahl zum 18.Deutschen Bundestag am 22.September 2013 - vorläufiges Ergebnis )〕 Its parliamentary group is therefore the third largest among the four groups in the German Bundestag, and the leading opposition group. The Left is a founder member of the Party of the European Left, and is the largest party in the European United Left–Nordic Green Left (GUE/NGL) group in the European Parliament. The party is the most left-wing party of the five represented in the Bundestag, and has been called far-left by German government authorities and different international media. Some of its internal factions are under observation by some states' or the federal ''Verfassungsschutz'' (constitutional protection) authorities on account of suspected extremist tendencies.〔(Verfassungsschutzbericht ), 2007–2011, Bundesamt für Verfassungsschutz〕 In Bavaria, the entire party is under surveillance.〔http://www.focus.de/politik/deutschland/verfassungsschutz-verfassungsfeinde-bayern-will-die-linke-weiter-beobachten-lassen_aid_904574.html〕 According to official party figures, the Left Party had 63,784 registered members as of December 2013,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=SPD hat wieder die meisten Partei-Mitglieder: Sozialdemokraten überholen CDU )〕 making it the fourth-largest party in Germany.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Soziale Zusammensetzung der Mitgliedschaft der Partei DIE LINKE | bpb )〕 The party participates in government in the states of Brandenburg, as minor partner to the Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD), and in Thuringia with the SPD and The Greens in a three-party coalition with The Left parliamentarian Bodo Ramelow serving as Minister-President. ==History== 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「The Left (Germany)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
