Recently, the "Alternative Selection Party" of the German Right -wing Party won in the mayor of Sannane, Tonengen Prefecture in the central region.This marks the first choice of the party to master the leadership of the German local government for the first time, which is considered a major breakthrough.Although other parties jointly called on voters to support the current head of the CDU of the right -wing, the other party still won 53%of the votes.
As a political party that has been established less than 10 years, the other party's claims have been left out of the party and were labeled with "Nazis".The concerns about the future governance of the alternative party is that they may lead Germany to the Nazi era.In addition, alternatively, the party's youth group is listed as "extremists" by the Federal Constitution Defense Administration for some slogans and speech content.
Nevertheless, the other party was originally supported by the party in the former East Germany region, and won 12.6%of the votes in the 2017 elections, becoming the third largest party in the Federal House.Although a slight regression in the 2021 election, 10%of the votes were still obtained.The latest polls show that the other party has received one -fifth of the support rate.
As a defeated country in World War II and actively reflect on the wrong World War II, why are more than one -tenth of voters voting for less than 10 years and have a very far -right party?This is closely related to the various social problems facing uniform Germany.
After the unified Germany, the economic and social gap between the East and the West is facing the challenges of the East and West, and some regions are facing problems such as high unemployment and economic inequality.These changes and challenges have caused some people to feel dissatisfied and lost. Right -wing populist parties use this dissatisfaction to attract voters to support the support.
Alternative selection of the party's rise is mainly due to the support of some former East German voters.After the unity of Germany, these people felt ignored by society, and rapid economic development did not improve their living conditions.In addition, the economic problems caused by the influx of refugees and the Russian and Ukraine War made them dissatisfied with the German government.During the Russian and Ukraine War, Germany canceled the transportation from Russia to the Beixi pipeline from Russia to Germany, causing some people in the former East Germany to lose precious job opportunities.These factors make voters start blame the government's incompetence.
Although the former West German residents paid a unified tax to promote the development of the former East Germany, the inequality of economic development still caused the former East Germany region to be at a disadvantage.According to data in 2017, the salary in the former East Germany region was only 80%of the former West Germany.The imbalance in the development of the East and West has led to many young people in the eastern region to go to the west to find employment.
The reasons for the increase in the support rate of the other party also include rising prices.As one of the German ruling parties, the Green Party advocates environmental protection and closed all nuclear power stations in Germany.The cost of closing the nuclear power plant is to buy expensive natural gas power generation, resulting in rising electricity costs.The Green Party plans to mandate a heater of more than 30 years. The government provides 40%of subsidies. Other costs must be borne by the public, which will bring extra burden on the lives of low -income people.Another choice party claims to restart nuclear power, and believes that low prices can ensure the living standards of the people.
Alternative selection of party election tactics is also drawn by other non -mainstream political parties.They did not accept an interview with the German state -owned TV station, and only made political opinions through social media, and their speeches on the click rate showed that the sound was not weak.
Alternative selection party also tries to re -examine the current immigration policy.In 2015, the then Prime Minister Merkel accepted the policy of refugees and caused some social problems, and some people expressed dissatisfaction with the government.Oppose the alternative party that accepts large -scale refugees, and starts to attract the support of the right -wing voters in some, which has aroused concerns about cultural identity, social cohesion and security.
Alternative Selection Party also supports European skepticism, advocating Germany to withdraw from the European Union without paying high fees.They believe that the European Union is a non -democratic bureaucracy that is demanded by the needs of the German people.This position has attracted some European skepticism, and those who think that Germany will have better development outside the European Union.
However, the other party has neglected the example of the British withdrawal from the EU. Although the Brexit still has a lot of impact, despite the status of the financial center and the UN Security Council.One of the most important factor that can continue to develop in Germany is to dump its cheap products to European countries through the EU platform.As a result, Germany's trade surplus has always ranked among the top three in the world.In terms of political influence, Germany, as a defeated country in World War II, took nearly half a century to achieve reunification. Another member of the European Union France was a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council; Germany stayed in the European Union. Only with the helpEven the world's political influence.
Extraordinary selection of the rise of the party, reflecting some social problems after Germany's unity.Two people who have split more than half a century and live in different ideology have different views on some issues.Although the alternative selection party claims to launch its own prime minister candidate in the 2025 election, when everyone is afraid of the extremely right -wing, the alternative party must win more than 50%of the seats in order to govern alone. ThisIt's not easy.However, the future trend of Germany's politics will indeed affect the political pattern of the European Union and the world.
