Q. Study the following pictures/cartoons and answer the questions that follow:
1) What does the cartoon represent?
Ans. The cartoon refers to the problems of running a coalition government. If any one
party fails to get a majority, they are left with no option but to form a coalition
government. In a coalition government, conflicts are maximum, decision making
becomes slow and they generally result in fall of the government as all the parties want to
have the charge of the key areas (steering wheel as depicted in this cartoon). There cannot
be two steering wheels in car, as it will make it directionless.
2) Which country is represented here?
, Ans. The country represented and talked here is Germany. The two major parties of the
country, namely the Christian Democratic Union and the Social Democratic Party formed
a coalition. The two parties are historically rivals to each other. They had to form a
coalition government because neither of them got clear majority of seats on their own in
the 2005 elections. They take divergent positions on several policy matters, but still
jointly run the government.
