Sažetak
The purpose of the article is to analyse strategies for combating
and preventing right-wing extremism in the Federal Republic of
Germany and to find an adequate model for its prevention in
Germany as well as in other countries. After defining right-wing
extremism, and of the utmost importance in defining it is the
ideology of inequality closely connected to xenophobia, racism
and revisionism, and after its analysis on several levels
(organised right-wing party extremism, numerous organisations,
population attitudes, various forms of action, sub-cultural
extremism of rightist youth groups), the authors discuss to what
extent right-wing extremism currently represents a threat to
German democracy. Following an analysis of what causes the
development of right-wing extremism (psychological, sociological,
politological and integrative factors) and also of the constitutional
and criminal-law measures for preventing right-wing extremism,
the paper discusses the in-school and out-of-school prevention of
rightist extremism of youth in Germany. Furthermore, the authors
conclude that right-wing extremism does not, in spite of its evident
growth, represent a serious threat to the democratic constitutional
state, the reason for which can be found in various
comprehensive measures of prevention which are being implemented
in Germany, and which can serve as a model for the
prevention of right-wing extremism in other democratic countries.
