Im Juli 2015 verließ der Parteigründer Bernd Lucke die einstige „Anti-Euro-Partei“ aufgrund eines massiven Rechtsrucks – und die seitdem stattfindende Entwicklung gibt ihm recht. Das Auftreten der Partei hat sich erst zöger- lich, dann aber mit aller Macht grundlegend gewandelt. Mit aggressiven Parolen gegen Geflüchtete und den Islam setzt die neue Parteiführung auf gezielte Provokation. Getra- gen wird dies auch von einer neuen Parteibasis, die seit 2013 deutliche Veränderungen durchgemacht hat. In Auftreten und Sprache inszenieren sich die AfD gerne als Vertreter des „kleinen Mannes“. Ein großes Pfund für die Partei ist die Abstiegsangst großer Teile der Mittelschicht und der Geringverdiener.

  • Brochure Template
    Through a glass darkly 1 Briefing note June 2014 The new European Parliament: what to expect From 22 to 25 May 2014, Europeans went to the polls. Many of them went to express their dissatisfaction. Although the majority of the incoming 751 MEPs remain broadly supportive of the EU, both they and those who need to engage with the European Parliament will have to adapt to the increased power of a disparate anti-EU and anti- establishment minority over the next five years. This briefing provides an overview of the election results* at the EU level and what happens next, further analysis on results in France, Germany, Greece and the UK, a look at the key outgoing and incoming MEPs, and an examination of the selection procedures for the new leaders of the European Commission, European Parliament and European Council. The election results The election saw a marked rise, of about 10%, in the number of MEPs elected from anti-EU and anti-establishment parties from both ends of the political spectrum. They won around 230, or 31%, of the 751 seats, compared to 164, or 21%, of the 766 seats in 2009. What remains to be seen is whether the newly -elected MEPs will join existing, or form new, political groups in the Parliament (see below for more information on the importance of political groups and how they are formed). Despite their decreased numbers, the pro-Europeans remain the dominant force in the European Parliament. Their four groups – the centre-right, the centre-left, the liberals and the greens – won 521, or 69%, of the 751 available seats.

  • Closer Cooperation Between the Afd and the 'Pegida' Movement Could
    Closer cooperation between the AfD and the ‘Pegida’ movement could reshape the German right blogs.lse.ac.uk/europpblog/2015/01/05/closer-cooperation-between-the-afd-and-the-pegida-movement-could-reshape-the-german-right/ 05/01/2015 A number of rallies calling for greater restrictions on immigration have been held in Germany by the ‘Pegida’ movement (Patriotic Europeans against the Islamisation of the West). Julian M Hoerner writes on the link between the movement and the anti-euro Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) party, led by Bernd Lucke. He argues that with the AfD appearing to be broadly supportive of Pegida, an alliance between the two groups could reshape the right of the German party system. In post-War Germany, it was once taken for granted that there could be no party to the right of the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) which respected the German constitution, the Grundgesetz. This perceived wisdom has recently been called into question with the electoral success of the Alternative für Deutschland (AfD). The party has the appearance of being populist and anti-euro, but is led by respectable figures from the conservative German establishment, many of them academics. However, the recent rapprochement of the party to a new anti-Islam, anti-immigration movement called ‘Pegida’ (Patriotic Europeans against the Islamisation of the West) calls the party’s liberal credentials into questions. The AfD and Pegida share the same regional strongholds and their supporters are united by unease with recent changes in German society. The ‘black box’ of the Pegida movement, with its diverse membership, might prove to be a link between the AfD and more radical and extremist elements, especially in Eastern Germany.

  • AFD-Parteiporträt
    Europa-Dossier AFD-Parteiporträt Europa neu denken. AFD-Parteiporträt - Dossier 1. Kurze Beschreibung der Ausgangslage „Mut zu D(EU)tschland“ lautet das Motto der AfD für die Europa-wahl. Die Partei setzt damit offensiv auf ein nationalis- tisches Momentum. Nach insgesamt drei Parteitagsterminen in drei Monaten hat es die AfD - stets am Rande des Chaos und Scheiterns - geschafft, sowohl eine KandidatInnen-Liste als auch ein Europawahlprogramm zu beschließen (zuletzt der Erfurter Programm-Parteitag der AfD am 22./23.3.2014). Der Parteisprecher Bernd Lucke führt die Liste an, gefolgt vom ehemaligen BDI-Chef Hans-Olaf Henkel. Auf Platz vier kandidiert die bekannte rechtskonservative Politikerin Beatrix von Storch, auf Platz sieben tritt der Lucke-Kritiker und Unterstützer einer Zusammenarbeit mit der europafeindlichen englischen „UKIP“, Markus Pretzell, an. Neben der Spitzenkandidatur Luckes tritt die AfD zugleich eher kurios mit Hans Olaf Henkel als Kandidaten für die Wahl des europäischen Kommissionspräsidenten an. Der Charakter der AfD kann als noch unfertige Mischung aus Bewegung und entstehender professionalisierter Partei- Organisation mit einer populistischen Sammelbecken-Strategie beschrieben werden. Drei politische Strömungen vereint die AfD: eine national-konservative , eine neoliberale und eine rechts-reak- tionäre. Der Versuch, einen soziallliberalen Flügel zu etablieren („Kolibri“) kann als gescheitert bewertet werden. Einige Presse-Kommentatoren unterstellen der AfD starken Einfluss von christlich fundamentalistischer Positionen. Dies ist jedoch bislang keine relevante Strömung. Der Kern der AfD-Führung repräsentiert Positionen und Haltungen des rechten Rands der programmatisch von Merkel entkernten CDU, der sich in der CDU nicht mehr erfolgreich artikulieren konnte. Hinzu kommen Trümmerteile des frühe- ren harten eurokritischen FDP-Flügels („Schäffler-Flügel“) und dieUnterstützung aus dem neurechten Spektrum um die bekannte Publikation „Neue Freiheit“.

  • 'Frostpolitik'? Merkel, Putin and German Foreign Policy Towards Russia
    From Ostpolitik to ‘frostpolitik’? Merkel, Putin and German foreign policy towards Russia TUOMAS FORSBERG* Germany’s relationship with Russia is widely considered to be of fundamental importance to European security and the whole constitution of the West since the Second World War. Whereas some tend to judge Germany’s reliability as a partner to the United States—and its so-called Westbindung in general—against its dealings with Russia, others focus on Germany’s leadership of European foreign policy, while still others see the Russo-German relationship as an overall barometer of conflict and cooperation in Europe.1 How Germany chooses to approach Russia and how it deals with the crisis in Ukraine, in particular, are questions that lie at the crux of several possible visions for the future European order. Ostpolitik is a term that was coined to describe West Germany’s cooperative approach to the Soviet Union and other Warsaw Pact countries, initiated by Chan- cellor Willy Brandt in 1969. As formulated by Brandt’s political secretary, Egon Bahr, the key idea of the ‘new eastern policy’ was to achieve positive ‘change through rapprochement’ (Wandel durch Annäherung). In the Cold War context, the primary example of Ostpolitik was West Germany’s willingness to engage with the Soviet Union through energy cooperation including gas supply, but also pipeline and nuclear projects.2 Yet at the same time West Germany participated in the western sanctions regime concerning technology transfer to the Soviet Union and its allies, and accepted the deployment of American nuclear missiles on its soil as a response * This work was partly supported by the Academy of Finland Centre of Excellence for Choices of Russian Modernisation (grant number 250691).
