Kiesinger, Kurt Georg (b. 6 Apr. 1904, d. 9 Mar. 1988). Chancellor of West Germany 1966–9 Despite controversy surrounding his membership of the
Nazi Party and his work first as a lawyer and then for the broadcasting service of the German Foreign Office during World War II, he had an active political career in West Germany. He was an MP for the
CDU in 1949–58, and 1969–80. He was Minister President of the state of Baden-Württemberg 1958–66, and then he succeeded
Erhard as Chancellor to head a coalition with the
SPD. Encouraged by his Foreign Minister, W.
Brandt, he attempted a careful softening of West Germany's attitude to the
German question, and successfully overcame the country's economic crisis. However, he was criticized for his heavy-handed and inflexible response to the student protests which developed during his period in office. The CDU lost the 1969 elections when the SPD gained sufficient strength to form a government with the
Liberal Party, and in 1971 Kiesinger resigned as party leader.
