(chanting) - [narrator] dubbed by some as the facebook, or twitter, revolution, the 2011 arab spring saw widespread use of social media. - it has no power of control from anyone. there is no way to fake it, or anything like this. - the arab spring is a case study in the birth of social media as a force for change. it was something that was going to bring democracy. it was going to help inform everyone. it was part of the revolution and, therefore, part of the spread of democracy. - you also saw that a few years earlier, in iran in 2009. you saw it a little bit afterwards, with the gezi park demonstrations in turkey. that is this is part of any public uprising. it is very powerful, and it is very hard for any state to deal with. - i

very lively debates to put it mildly in this new so-called grand coalition of conservatives on the social democrats and michele that just because you mentioned you know what exactly is in this coalition agreement give our viewers an idea of what happens now i mean this was a huge moment we were all waiting for now the next german government can get to work what are the next steps. well the bottom line is we expect a german chancellor merkel to be elected by the parliament on the fourteenth of march so you can put all that in your political diaries but what we're still to learn and we already know which team she wants to bring into the cabinet we've seen one of her most prominent critics yet spahn who was working with. a much more known figure to international viewers in the past now he's a conservative one of. the cabinet now still to learn who the social democrats will bring into this cabinet one potential leading figure is. on stage behind me that just now the interim head of the party who will certainly see anthony analysis in the leading function and the big question is whether the cu

media can best coexist some countries are looking to germany on january first a social media of all the first of its kind took effect here it punishes firms that failed to delete online abuse within twenty four hours after being notified wednesday german chancellor angela merkel just a week after starting her fourth term hinted that an end to the regulatory vacuum for facebook. may be on the way. if i did this it wasn't even part of the concerns these past days about facebook and what happened there today is only part of a non issue that's why and with our experience of social market economies germany and europe have a unique opportunity to create a just system of data sufferance that puts people at the center and allows them to participate but we still have a long way to go you know basic data protection moves are a fast small tenant step but we have to go further to make it just. if. we want to pull in our chief political correspondent and a crane she is following this part of the story tonight good evening to you melinda so i'm trying to get my head around the part that the jets

in a moment but this is not just about the social democrats all of germany's holding its breath this morning perhaps even all of the european union waiting to see whether almost half a year after elections europe's largest economy will finally have a stable government if it's a yes from the s.p.d. rank and file that is likely to happen if they vote no germany and europe could be in for a rough ride senior political editor michelle a coup for her has more. a tense calm hangs over berlin's government district. germany is waiting to learn whether the social democrat party base will agree to another ground coalition with anglo-american in the chancellor. if b.s.p. dean says yes this weekend could simply pass without any grave consequences to germany's political set up but if it says no this has the potential to send the country into political freefall and along with it german chancellor angela merkel. macko has certainly done her bit to avoid that outcome she convinced her c.d.u. party to back the coalition despite the feeling that she gave away too many key ministries to save for a seco

social media like kentucky germany dot are you so we see that social networks play a. role in the way voters vote so we have to analyze that much proper then in former years yes but what about one of your putin there mr i mean if all this is true then you've got the head of the russian state who is trying to influence western democracies yes and then the question is if so we have to first find out where the money comes from for the research work i heard that it comes partly from russia the other part from cambridge another take us so there are different sources in the end the data came to run through a third party cambridge analytics and they used the data for election campaigns for influencing the come pains so and the question is how can facebook know this and give the data let the data flow to this third party cambridge allergic us so that's a real question facebook after we talked before the german election there was fear here that. the social bonds of manipulation of the election was going to happen the way that we saw united states based on what we know we didn't

but at the same time those continued promises of really wanting to go back to the cool values of the social democrats they really are in a complete crisis there of what they stand for and they feel that certainly merkel played her part in diminishing the social democrat core value base into simply becoming a junior partner in a coalition that keeps being led by a german chancellor angela merkel so this is a question of of heart over head if they voted with their hearts were more likely to see a negative outcome here but most broadly expect certainly the entire party leadership who signed under that plea really to their party base to give them this yes vote they are hopeful they're optimistic that this one will pass without that political quake that would otherwise certainly unfold here this sunday we have been hearing michelle a lot of confident voices coming from the s.p.d. head of the result that we are still waiting for how far away are we from hearing that result. well we are minutes away but i can't tell you how many minutes we're expecting a slight delay there what i can certainly tel

elections very difficult so no surprise then that on the night of that defeat of the elections then social democrat leader martin shultz the former head of the european parliament came forward and said never again he got a lot of cheers for that that's certainly how the party base felt that's really the heart of the party's base saying they don't want this bruising relationship with the conservatives particularly. now they're being asked after a brief phase of divorce say to once again join this political marriage of convenience is almost a wrong word almost a forced marriage to stabilize not just the country which is the greater picture of responsibility that the social democrats frame themselves within but potentially also to stabilize the own party with under the analysis the new leading figures set to replace martin salts after this phase that we're seeing right now at the next party conference saying in pledging actually to the party base that yes the renewal process would be possible at the same time as being in the so-called grand coalition while the social democrat party basically

because many of us human social. circle i think the. propaganda campaigns. filing in new york is. one out of actually ten ten different cases out of dozens that would be through all of the you. know the different states and also in other international countries the issue of fake news is not a new one as you know and we do have an indication of just how serious fake news can actually be but let me just put to you something that your office has said and what you're saying is that those involved use the alias accounts to post negatively about the country or the ramifications of which could cause quote irreversible damage can you however quantify that irreversible damage see quantifying it as it's up to the fact that you know what it will need time to do to tell fully however the effects. of. the effects financial. economic and. the effects as emotional damage is. just. since you know and people living and and. so the damages are in that sense qatar says that the gulf diplomatic crisis was sparked by a fake news story in fact and we know that a formal complaint was then made to the br

basically it's about the people represented by the social democrats and who have an interest in social democracy. and they've suffered in particular from the global economic developments of the last thirty years. there are no easy answers to this situation. indeed the s.p.d. is in search of new answers and is now making a fresh start with some new faces in the third grand coalition do they also represent new policies. primarily they represent the policies as agreed on in the coalition deal but i certainly think they can bring in new ideas and impetus the big question is whether and to what extent the s.p.d. can meet expectations on tackling issues about the future. and there are crucial points everywhere. and i'm very pleased with our new foreign minister. he's already made it clear to president french that germany wants to be accommodating to france and work together with france and other european countries that's a big step. you mentioned the new foreign minister he was the minister of justice in the previous government so not such a new face. do you see fresh impetus from the new mi

is facing right now very much like many of the social democratic parties across your. but what was even worse for germany social democrats was that for two of michael's coalition governments they've served with the. conservatives and that's really had a bad effect on their profile now merkel moved her conservatives very much to the center and by doing so she was able to poach a lot of the s.p.d. proposals so you saw the s.p.d. the social democrats doing a lot of the legwork but not really profiting from it so right now a lot of party members of the s.p.d. party members are saying let's stand back and give ourselves time to renew and redefine our profile as a social democratic party well we wait to see what they'll decide on sunday kate brady thank you for joining us. another european nation italy is actually heading to the polls tomorrow in an unpredictable election where migration has been the biggest issue now the vote pits a right wing coalition led by former prime minister silvio berlusconi against a center left alliance led by another former prime minister materia

and it's sad you know the social democratic party which is the oldest party in germany the only party in germany which can trace its history back to before the second world war the party that stood up to hitler in the high stock and said no when hitler gave himself dictatorial powers and so on you know the party of evil and and what have you in it and which made that you not want to i'm not a fan of him. yes so it's really it's really sad it's not the sad thing isn't that the a.f.p. the far right if he got gets run up fifteen percent sixteen percent in polls the sad thing is that a party which represents sort of the broad working class in the broader sense or should represent them is down. to that segment so yeah it's sad but as as matthew said in his statement they have to reinvent themselves i don't i mean it discusses a lot of times if i knew how i probably be the leader of the social democrats not just a journalist a few runs about in just a second or matthew i mean the alternative for germany now is looking set to become the main opposition party here in germany there certainly i

national socialism. and my feeling of course as a french and german person is that the the lie of the world where i've been brought up the freedom democracy. europe has been freedom for seventy years and this is something people are forgetting this is something that was allowed by also the way europe though it was it's passed after world war two and now my feeling is that this consensus towards history is. breaking you know let me just clap on that would you just mention the word forgetting the your book is actually called live. you know french in english i suppose that would be the easier or people who lost their memory just a little bit more about that and why it's relevant what will bring about well because a thing about the way people dealt with their history for example germany. alone. it's germany to built up its democracy the democracy of germany you call it separate it from the way germany dealt with its past so when you have a party like the if they which is attacking this way of dealing with me
