Страх і ненависть у Німеччині. Чому німці все більше вірять популістам
Fear and hatred in Germany. Why Germans increasingly believe populists

Summary/Abstract: Germany is witnessing a surge in populism, with the “Alternative for Germany” (AfD) gaining significant traction, particularly in the eastern regions. This rise is accompanied by an alarming increase in politically motivated violence, reaching over 60,000 incidents in 2023. The AfD’s appeal among young voters and its strong presence on social media platforms like TikTok are notable factors. Economic concerns, migration issues, and a general dissatisfaction with traditional political parties contribute to this trend. The narrative also highlights the role of misinformation and the challenges faced by traditional media in countering populist rhetoric. The growing polarization in German politics is evident, with both right and left-wing populist movements gaining ground. The document calls for a more effective response from traditional parties to address these challenges and restore public trust.
