This article discusses the impact of the German federal elections in September 2013 on the management of the Eurozone crisis and European integration. The authors look at opinions both inside and between German political parties, and contend that a cross-party compromise appears feasible after the elections. They conclude that regardless of the outcome, the next German government is likely to prove more conciliatory on austerity policies in Europe and boost domestic spending. It will, however, retain some red lines on further EU integration.
