New Publication: „The Far Right in Germany: Characteristics, Explanatory Approaches, and Fields of Action"
a dossier for the State Agency for Civic Education (Landeszentrale für politische Bildung) Baden-Württemberg (in German)
Authors: IRex Team This dossier provides a scientifically grounded overview of key concepts, current manifestations, and the actors involved in the far right. It highlights thematic focal points and typical discursive strategies, outlines the social and political causes identified by research, and examines the impact of right-wing extremist attitudes and actions on our democratic society. Finally, it presents perspectives for action, prevention strategies, and advisory services designed to help individuals and institutions competently recognize right-wing extremism and effectively counter it. The dossier is complemented by a list of further reading, advisory services, and links offering deeper insights into the topic.
The aim is to provide a clear yet nuanced guide - for teachers, civic education institutions, policymakers, media professionals, and anyone wishing to explore the subject in greater depth.
The German-language dossier was published on July 22, 2026, on the website of the State Agency for Civic Education Baden-Württemberg.
