party platform
An official document of a political party in which its basic values, political goals, and concrete plans for a legislative term are set out.
Vor der Wahl habe ich mir das Parteiprogramm jeder größeren Partei genau durchgelesen.
Before the election, I carefully read through the party platform of every major party.
The word is a compound made up of 'die Partei' (party) and 'das Programm' (program/platform). The '-s-' in the middle is a linking s that connects the two words. So it is literally the program of a party.
Das neue Parteiprogramm wurde auf dem Parteitag vorgestellt.
The new party platform was presented at the party conference.
Common verbs used with 'Parteiprogramm' (party platform) are: 'ein Parteiprogramm lesen' (to read a party platform), 'erstellen' (to create), 'verabschieden' (to adopt), or 'vorstellen' (to present). You also say that goals 'im Parteiprogramm stehen' (are in the party platform).
Die Arbeitsgruppe hat ein neues Parteiprogramm entworfen.
The working group drafted a new party platform.
This word is central in political discourse, especially during election campaigns. Voters often use party platforms to find out about the goals of the different parties.
Im Wahlkampf vergleichen viele Bürger die Parteiprogramme.
During the election campaign, many citizens compare the party platforms.
election platform
The Wahlprogramm focuses on an upcoming election and lists goals and plans for the coming legislative period. The Parteiprogramm is broader and also describes the party’s fundamental values and political goals. For specific plans for an election, Wahlprogramm is therefore the better term.
Im Parteiprogramm erklärt die Partei ihre grundlegenden Werte und politischen Ziele.
In its party platform, the party explains its fundamental values and political goals.
Im Wahlprogramm erklärt die Partei ihre Vorhaben für die nächste Legislaturperiode.
In its election platform, the party explains its plans for the next legislative period.
