Beschreibung

Safety rethought Do you sometimes worry that you can no longer go out on the street light-hearted on your own? And would you also like active support in an emergency? What measures can increase safety without restricting freedom? This book tells us: ... how security forces can be requested by citizens - depending on their sense of security - to help them in real and digital terms. ... how a democratically agreed emergency plan can be practised in advance together with the population in order to prevent the fear of an uncertain future in the event of a disaster. ... how military material and personnel can contribute to the prosperity of the population in peacetime and be used democratically in the event of war. After 20 years of work on this book series, Andreas Seidl thus ventures a step towards founding a party. In doing so, he entertains his readers both intellectually and visionarily. If this work can give you hope, inspire you or move you to action, it has fulfilled its purpose. Available in German and English

Foreword

This policy concept contains a variety of proposals for possible political reforms. It can be peacefully and democratically adapted to any current political system of any state in the world, but also to political systems in families, clubs, associations or companies. Wherever humans make or submit to rules that manage living together, the following proposals can be helpful. Readers who find the proposals so helpful that they would like to implement them together with like-minded people can contact the author. The contact form on the last page can be used for this purpose.

Faults and defects

I ask for your understanding that this volume was not professionally proofread. I could only afford professional proofreading for the summary. Spelling errors and unfortunate phrasing may therefore occur. As soon as this volume has sold enough to pay for a professional proofreading, it will be done. After that, a new edition will be published.

English version

Please understand that this volume has been translated automatically. I could only afford a professional translation for the summary. Poor wording and spelling errors may therefore occur. In case of doubt, the German version shall prevail. As soon as this volume has sold enough to pay for a professional translation, it will be done. After that, a new edition will be published. It was more important to me that no one in the world should have an information advantage than individual translation errors in the complete work.

1 Goals of the Ministry of Security

The fundamental goal of the Ministry of Security is peace. It uses the state’s monopoly on the use of force for the benefit of the people and in voting with the people in the most cost-effective way. The use of lethal weapons should be the exception and be replaced by non-lethal weapons as far as possible. If possible, no human should be killed by the security forces. On the other hand, security forces should be able to use minor injuries as a disciplinary measure against verbal or physical attackers. The aim is to generate respect for the monopoly on the use of force, which is basically friendly and helpful. However, anyone who violates the law and defies the legally permissible instructions of the security forces is immediately punished and the handling is characterised by coercive measures permissible under criminal law.

Force is used only as briefly as possible and as violently as necessary. Military deterrence applies only to the protection of external borders. Other states should realise that the military is not designed for the conquest of foreign countries. Peace treaties should thus be easier to achieve. At the same time, the population should be able to defend its democratic freedom of self-determination against occupiers in an emergency.

The short-term goal is the establishment of the European Defence Army. The medium-term goal is the remote control of all weapon systems and an effective defence mechanism against celestial bodies in space. The long-term goal of the Ministry of Security is to abolish border protection, Customs and the military. Only defence systems against celestial bodies are to be maintained. The Ministry of Security supports the discovery and settlement of Earth-like planets with its equipment.

2 Departments

The departments are divided into sub-departments and enumerations are usually considered as their individual units. Many tasks of some departments are completely taken over by other ministries as a service.

2.1 Central Department

Part of the Central Department is the Reception Office with the Courier and Mail Room, which directs all concerns, broadcasts and visitors to the appropriate place in the ministry.

2.1.1 Staff

The Human Resources Department is responsible for staff development and planning. For this purpose, it takes care of the recruitment of junior staff, intern and trainee programmes as well as the selection procedures for employees and special selection procedures for applicants with disabilities. For politicians and employees, the department prepares a job plan. In all its tasks, it works in voting with the personnel board.3

All other personnel matters are transferred to the relevant ministries. The Ministry of Education is responsible for the training and further education of employees for the state service.4 The Ministry of Labour takes over the service law.5 This includes labour and collective bargaining law for employees in the state service, remuneration, personnel administration of all careers and employees, flexitime, holiday and sick leave, working time with or without flexitime in part-time or full-time at the place of work or in home work. The Ministry of Infrastructure provides housing assistance for all state employees.6 The Ministry of Finance’s Pay Office takes care of employees’ salary, expenses, travel and relocation costs.7 The Ministry of Education provides childcare for all employees in the state service.8

The Ministry of Health is responsible for the occupational health service.9 It ensures occupational health management, deals with the treatment, education and prevention of occupational accidents, controls and provides occupational health and safety through the health auditors10 of the Company Auditing Agency11 .

2.1.2 Organisation

The ministries of media, justice, finance, labour, state organisation provide audit services for quality management in the ministry, evaluation of work performance, revenues and expenditures, as well as prevention of corruption, protection against sabotage and, if necessary, disciplinary matters.12

The Ministry of Labour regulates procurement law and ensures corruption-free state orders and procurement.13 The Ministry of Finance organises the annual budget vote and ensures proper accounting in each ministry.14 It regulates budget procedures, budget law, staff budgets, departmental budgets, costs and cash management, and assists ministries in budget planning for the budget vote. The language service for translating talks or texts is provided by the Ministry of Education.15

The Ministry of Digital Affairs supports the supply of Information Technology.16 In voting with the Procurement Office of the Ministry of Labour, it takes care of the procurement, provision, maintenance and service of technical devices and software. Much of this is produced in-house to ensure data protection in information and communication technology. Information technology and digitalisation officers audit and advise the ministries. Digital appointment calendar and documentation services are provided as well as a digital policy archive including a library.

2.1.2.1 Audit services17

The Office for the Protection of the Constitution is the audit services of the Ministry of Security, which checks the work of the ministries for their compliance with the Constitution. The police audits the constitutional compliance of citizens, in particular compliance with fundamental rights. Both audit services of the Ministry of Security work with the prosecution offices of the Ministry of Justice to have violations judicially reviewed.

2.2 Management Department

The Management Department is the minister’s department. With his office team, he provides policy planning and analysis for his ministry and coordinates the relationship between the nation and the municipality through exchanges with his deputies in the municipalities. He initiates cooperation with other ministries or citizens in committees and is supported by the Ministry of State Organisation.

The Ministry of Media Affairs, through its media service, provides press and public relations for the ministry, moderates civil dialogue, trains or provides a spokesperson for the minister, writes speeches and texts on request, and ensures the implementation of conferences and events.18

The Ministry of Digital Affairs is responsible for digital management and thus provides departmental management. It automatically produces business statistics, staff surveys and the current state of research through statistics. It automatically forwards proposals to the affected or empowered state employees. In document management, it ensures digitalisation and that ministries share forms with each other.19

2.3 European Department

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs ensures the constant transmission of the latest information on current European policy affecting the ministry concerned, applicable European Union law and all European Union funding programmes starting or in progress.20

The European Department is responsible for clarifying policy issues and coordinating the Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP) and the Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP).21 This includes cross-border law enforcement and prevention of danger by all security forces, joint protection of the European Union’s external borders and the European Defence Army. The European Department organises security policy relations with European Union member states in voting with the Security Minister.

The European Department decides for the areas of CSDP22 , humanitarian aid and disaster management23 , police and customs cooperation24 , combating terrorism25 , combating organised crime26 , customs cooperation27 , customs - general rules28 , customs-specific rules and regulations29 , tariffs, controls and exemptions30 , whether to adopt, adapt or reject existing European Union law.31

2.4 Security Policy Department

The Security Policy Department is responsible for coordinating all measures affecting all security agencies or organised in cooperation with other ministries. It operates the Security Directory32 and the Investigation Directory. In the event of an emergency or disaster, it shares selected data from the Security Directory with other affected states in order to coordinate operations. For criminal cases, offences and the control of persons and goods entering and departing the country, it shares the data from the Investigation Directory with states that also share their investigation data to the same extent.

It is responsible for formulating security policy bills. If the rules are to be standardised across Europe or worldwide, it works together with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

The Security Policy Department is responsible for organising international cooperation between the security agencies of the involved states, which provide administrative and legal assistance to each other. To this end, it works in voting with the ministers for security and foreign affairs.

2.5 Department for Internal and External Security

The Department for Internal and External Security operates the security agencies, namely the civil defence, rescue service, fire brigade, Technical Relief Agency, People’s Protection Service, police and military.

The department takes care of the cooperation and networking of the individual security agencies and the balanced deployment of personnel of all available security forces between all security agencies. It coordinates the security forces of the municipalities for national and international operations.

In the event of a disaster or state of emergency, the Department for Internal and External Security coordinates the division of tasks with all necessary ministries. For this purpose, it can give them instructions necessary to deal with the disaster or state of emergency in voting with the Minister of Security. It conducts regular committees and voting with the population during a disaster or state of emergency to ensure democratic control.

3 Tasks of the Ministry of Security33

The Ministry of Security’s task is to protect the country’s inhabitants and guard the democratic state in which they live. The Ministry of Security is the only ministry, apart from the Ministry of Justice in the penal system, that is allowed to use force. The Minister of Security and his deputies are subject to democratic control.

The security forces have the task of enforcing the law of public safety and order, which is set by the people. The task of the Minister of Security is to maintain internal and external security. To maintain internal security, he is assisted by his deputies in the municipalities. The security forces are staffed and technically equipped in such a way that they are able to ward off dangers and protect the people from attacks, disasters, emergencies and crime independently of other states. The unarmed security forces of the fire brigade, the rescue service and the Technical Relief Agency ward off the dangers of emergencies and disasters. The armed security forces of the Army, Customs, Police and People’s Protection Service protect the citizens from crime and attacks from within and outside the country.
