Summary
Marc Grohmann examines the constitutional jurisdiction of the Reichstag for the German colonies in Africa and Asia which were acquired after 1884. In 1886, the parliament waived a strong control over the colonies in an enabling act in favor of the Kaiser, thus creating an 'exotic constitution'. After the turn of the century attempts were made to enable the Reichstag to increase its influence. Marc Grohmann examines the content, the origin and the application of the decisive laws in this case. In addition, he analyzes their contemporary reflection in legal science.
