Abstract: This article is about the way that the notion of religion is understood and used in election manifestos of populist and nationalist right-wing political parties in Germany and the Netherlands between 2002 and 2021. In order to pursue such enquiry, a discourse on the nature of manifestos of political parties in general and election manifestos specifically is required. Election manifestos are important socio-scientific and historical sources. The central question that this article poses is how the notion of religion is included in the election manifestos of three Dutch (LPF, PVV, and FvD) and one German (AfD) populist and nationalist parties, and what this inclusion reveals about the connection between religion and populist parties. Religious keywords in the election manifestos of said political parties are researched and discussed. It leads to the conclusion that the notion of religion is not central to these political parties, unless it is framed as a stand against Islam. Therefore, these parties defend Citation: van den Broeke, Leon, and the Jewish-Christian-humanistic nature of the country encompassing the separation of ‘church’ or Katharina Kunter.

  • Germany. Is the Populism Laggard Catching Up?
    This is an Accepted Manuscript of a book chapter edited by Toril Aalberg, Frank Esser, Carsten Reinemann, Jesper Strömbäck, and Claes H. de Vreese published by Routledge as Populist Political Communication in Europe on July 26, 2016. The book is available online at: http://www.tandfebooks.com/doi/book/10.4324/9781315623016 9. Germany. Is the Populism Laggard Catching Up? Nayla Fawzi, Magdalena Obermaier, and Carsten Reinemann Introduction In Germany, the phenomenon of populism has been discussed intensively in recent years; however, empirical research on populism and populist political communication is scarce. This shortage can presumably be explained by the populist parties’ lack of success on a national level, a characteristic that distinguishes Germany from many other European countries (Bornschier, 2012). More fundamentally, consensus is missing as to whether some of the parties analyzed can actually be considered populist (Decker, 2014; Gebhardt, 2013; Holtmann, Krappidel, & Rehse, 2006; Jaschke, 2013; Neu, 2003; Oberreuter, 2011; Werz, 2013). The few existing empirical studies are mainly single-case studies of mainstream political movements, parties, or politicians, all partially behaving in a “populist manner.” In addition, little international comparative research includes German populist parties, their communication, their media resonance, or the effects of their communication on citizens (for exceptions, see Kienpointner, 2005; Pauwels, 2014; Rooduijn, de Lange, & van der Brug, 2014). Nevertheless, this chapter aims to systematically

Some eleven years ago, the first IEEM was held in Singapore in 2007. We were encouraged by the support and enthusiasm of our colleagues in Asia and had organized the conference every year without fail since then. It has grown into a high-quality conference in the fields of industry engineering and engineering management, with participants from all corners of the world. For this we are very gratefully to authors, reviewers, participants, and also our co-hosts in Hong Kong, Macau, Bali, Bangkok and Kuala Lumpur during this period. We can now confidently say that IEEM brings together the community’s most innovative thinkers and dynamic researchers from around the world to share the latest research findings in industrial engineering and engineering management. This year, IEEM2017 received nearly 1000 submissions from more than 50 countries. As in the past, each paper was sent to at least three reviewers. The acceptance decisions were based on at least two consistent recommendations, ensuring the quality and standard of the conference.

  • A Pathological Normalcy? a Study of Right-Wing Populist Parties in Germany
    Right-Wing Populist Parties – A Pathological Normalcy? A Study of Right-Wing Populist Parties in Germany ABSTRACT This chapter challenges the common explanation for the success or failure of right-wing populism, conducting a theory-testing analysis. Right-wing populist parties are often viewed as a temporary phenomenon, caused by some form of a crisis that weakened society. Cas Mudde offered an alternative explanation, claiming that the core sentiments of right-wing populism are rooted in society. Three concepts – authoritarianism, nativism and populism – are assumed to form the basis of right-wing populism. Examining party programmes, public statements and secondary literature on the German parties Die Republikaner, Schill-Partei and Alternative für Deutschland, this chapter identifies to what extent the three notions are reflected in the parties’ ideologies. Next, the chapter looks at public opinion surveys in order to detect those sentiments within the German society. The analysis reveals that the three notions are not only part of the parties’ ideologies, but are also consistently present in the German public opinion. The findings furthermore indicate that the success or failure of right-wing populist parties depends on their ability to deal with organisational struggles, to broaden their agenda and to provide a charismatic leader. As a consequence, this study of right-wing populism shows that explaining the surge of such parties based on the occurrence of crisis might be a convenient argument by those who neglect that the problem goes deeper.

There has been much less discussion about the effects of government participation on radical right-wing parties themselves. After all, they tend to portray themselves as challengers of the political establishment up to the moment of joining coalitions with their mainstream competitors. In this, they are comparable to new politics, left-libertarian or green parties, which began their life as challengers of the establishment as well but have joined national governments in Belgium, Finland, France, Germany and Italy over the last decade (Müller-Rommel, 1998; Taggart, 1994).

  • Elections in the Länder
    chap 9 27/5/03 11:57 am Page 289 9 Elections in the Länder Introduction Five phases can be distinguished in the development of political parties in the Länder. The first phase, from 1945 to 1953, was the period during which older parties were reestablished, e.g., SPD, and new parties were founded, e.g., the refugee party (BHE), CDU, and FDP (although the CDU has its roots in the old Center Party [Zentrum] and the FDP could be traced back to liberal parties of the Empire and Weimar Republic). The second phase, from 1953 to 1969, saw the developing concentration of 1 parties culminating in the three- (or “2 ⁄2”)-party system of CDU/CSU, SPD, and FDP. The third phase, from 1969 to 1983, was the period of three-party dominance, while in the fourth phase, from 1983 to 1990, the Greens emerged as a fourth party. Finally, following a reorientation after unification in 1990, a five-party system has developed at the national level with the rise of the PDS which, however, has a special regional character, and in Land elections has been confined to the new Länder and Berlin in the East just as the Greens and FDP have been successful only or mostly in the West.1 In order to provide the reader with some of the flavor and spice of Landtag elections, and to assess better some of the hypotheses about Land elections and parties that were mentioned in the previous chapter (pp. 267–273), a very brief overview of political developments in the Länder since 1945 is presented below.
