Party-Based Euro-Skepticism In Germany

Summary/Abstract: For some authors, Euro-skepticism represents one of the great recipes for success of the new anti-establishment parties in European Union opposing Europeanization and globalization and occupying some policy fields along the globalism-nationalism cleavage (Frölich-Steffen/Rensmann 2007: 124). This article describes how and to which extent Euro-skepticism plays a role in the German party system. The article considers whether the term genuinely suits the criteria of a right-wing populist party and the role of Euroskepticism in the German party system in general.
