德国联邦宪法法院的公众信任度正在下降。根据YouGov民调，目前约66%的德国人信任该法院，相比2021年的81%有所下滑1。这一信任度差异在不同群体中表现明显，其中选择党支持者对法院的信任度仅为34%，而基民盟和社民党支持者约为80%1。与此同时，德国其他主要机构的信任度也面临挑战——联邦议院信任度为47%，联邦议院下院为38%，联邦政府仅为29%1。
分析人士指出，法院在新冠疫情期间允许政府限制公民自由的决定可能导致了信任度下滑1。为应对这一状况，前宪法法官格特鲁德·吕贝-沃尔夫提出了改革建议，包括采取类似奥地利和瑞士的法官选拔制度，并允许更多政党提名候选人1。该法院成立于1951年，目的是确保西德法律符合1949年生效的《基本法》1。
Public confidence in Germany's Federal Constitutional Court has eroded significantly. According to a YouGov survey, approximately 66% of Germans currently trust the court, a substantial drop from 81% in 2021, according to research by the Allensbach Institute.1
Trust levels vary markedly across different institutions and political affiliations. The Bundesrat commands 47% trust, while the Bundestag and federal government trail at 38% and 29% respectively.1 Among supporters of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, only 34% express confidence in the court, compared to approximately 80% among Christian Democratic Union and Social Democratic Party supporters.1 Analysts suggest that the court's decisions during the COVID-19 pandemic, which permitted the government to restrict citizens' freedoms, may have contributed to the erosion of public confidence.1
Former judge Gertrude Lübbe-Wolff has proposed judicial reforms to address the crisis of confidence, including reforms to the judge selection process and expanded nomination rights for political parties, drawing on models used in Austria and Switzerland.1 The Constitutional Court, established in 1951 to ensure that West German legislation conformed to the Basic Law that took effect in 1949, has faced intensifying scrutiny over its independence and legitimacy.1
