Die Fortgeltung der Erheblichkeitsschwelle in § 129 StGB am Beispiel der „Letzten Generation“

Do the street blockades of the German climate group 'Letzte Generation' constitute a criminal organisation under Section 129 of the German Criminal Code?
To answer this question, Ralf Schröder examines whether the unwritten materiality requirement developed by the German Federal Court of Justice continues to apply following the 2017 legislative reform and the introduction of a two-year imprisonment threshold. The author then addresses the central question of whether the group's road blockades, involving activists gluing themselves to the road, meet this material requirement. In doing so, he examines the applicability of Section 129 of the German Criminal Code to the forms of protest employed by the 'Letzte Generation'.
