Perhaps the reason American (and British) Universities are well ahead of German ones in global league tables is that they concentrate on teaching relevant subject material extremely well, and do not permit interference by politicians in what that subject material should be? They may even recognise that professors of any subject, know more about what is appropriate to teach about that subject, than Politicians of any nationality or political persuasion !
