Loutsch Ministry
The Loutsch Ministry was in office in Luxembourg from 6 November 1915 to 24 February 1916. When the government of Mathias Mongenast resigned, Grand Duchess Marie-Adélaïde appointed a new government headed by Hubert Loutsch, composed entirely of members of the Party of the Right. While the political and economic situation became more and more tense, and required radical government measures, the Loutsch government did not possess a majority in the Chamber of Deputies, with 20 Deputies on the right compared with 32 Deputies on the left. To break the deadlock, the Grand Duchess decided to dissolve the Chamber and call new elections on 23 December 1915. This act by the Grand Duchess was allowed under the Constitution, but was regarded as highly unconventional, and provoked an outcry from the Deputies on the left. The socialists and liberals in parliament would never forgive Marie-Adélaïde for the dissolution, which they saw as a coup d'état. In the ensuing elections of 23 December, ...

Constitution Of Luxembourg
The Constitution of Luxembourg (french: Constitution du Grand-Duché de Luxembourg) is the supreme law of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. The modern constitution was adopted on 17 October 1868. Whilst the constitution of 1868 marked a radical change in Luxembourg's constitutional settlement, it was technically an amendment of the original constitution. That original constitution was promulgated on 12 October 1841, came into effect on 1 January 1842, and was acutely amended on 20 March 1848, and again on 27 November 1856. Luxembourg first emerged as a legitimate principality in the 14th century. It lived under successive Burgundian, Spanish, French, Austrian sovereignty, until 1815 when the Congress of Vienna erected it into a grand duchy and assigned it to William I, King of the Netherlands. However, it was not annexed to the ''Kingdom'' of the Netherlands; instead, it formed a personal union within the German Confederation created by the Congress of Vienna. When the 1866 A ...

Coup D'état
A coup d'état (; French for 'stroke of state'), also known as a coup or overthrow, is a seizure and removal of a government and its powers. Typically, it is an illegal seizure of power by a political faction, politician, cult, rebel group, military, or a dictator. Many scholars consider a coup successful when the usurpers seize and hold power for at least seven days. Etymology The term comes from French ''coup d'État'', literally meaning a 'stroke of state' or 'blow of state'. In French, the word ''État'' () is capitalized when it denotes a sovereign political entity. Although the concept of a coup d'état has featured in politics since antiquity, the phrase is of relatively recent coinage.Julius Caesar's civil war, 5 January 49 BC. It did not appear within an English text before the 19th century except when used in the translation of a French source, there being no simple phrase in English to convey the contextualized idea of a 'knockout blow to the existing administratio ...

Confidence Vote
A motion of no confidence, also variously called a vote of no confidence, no-confidence motion, motion of confidence, or vote of confidence, is a statement or vote about whether a person in a position of responsibility like in government or management is still deemed fit to hold that position, such as because they are inadequate in some aspect, fail to carry out their obligations, or make decisions that other members feel to be detrimental. The parliamentary motion demonstrates to the head of government that the elected Parliament either has or no longer has confidence in one or more members of the appointed government. In some countries, a no-confidence motion being passed against an individual minister requires the minister to resign. In most cases, if the minister in question is the premier, all other ministers must also resign. A censure motion is different from a no-confidence motion. Depending on the constitution of the body concerned, "no confidence" may lead to the dism ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
