History The party was founded in 1981 by two 17-year-olds with the nicknames Zewa and Kotze. In the following years it was joined by many punks organized many demonstrations, which were sometimes ended by the police, often leading to arrests. The party was dissolved in 1986, but was recreated in 1994 and soon chose to participate in elections. In the 1997 Hamburg city elections the APPD received 5.3% of the votes in St. Pauli and thus became the fourth-strongest party. In 1998 the APPD ran in the Bundestag election with Karl Nagel as its candidate for the chancellorship, and using slogans like "Work is shit" ("Arbeit ist Scheie") and "Drinking, drinking, each day only drinking" ("Saufen! Saufen! Jeden Tag nur saufen"). The APPD failed, however, to gain the 0.5% of the votes needed to pay to the voters in the form of a promised large party with free beer. With approximately 35,000, or 0.1%, of the votes, the APPD outperformed the LaRouchist BSo party and the German Communist Party DKP. Finally the party was dissolved in 1999. In December 2000 the APPD was reestablished in Munich, but did not participate in the Bundestag election of 2002. For the participation in the European election 2004 sufficiently many signatures were collected, these did not arrive however due to a mistake by party chairman Christoph Grossmann. Future In 2006 the APPD wants to participate again in an election to the Bundestag, with its new candidate for the chancellorship Dennis King. Theory of Pogo Anarchism The Pogo-Anarchismus (Pogo Anarchism) is often falsely confused with the standard anarchism, but there are more differences than commonalities. The pogo-anarchistic theory seeks only for an easy life with much free alcohol and no work. External links - http://www.appd.de/ Official web site (in German)
