The German far-right party Alternative for Germany (AfD) won the regional elections in the State of Saxony-Anhalt, marking a new chapter in German politics. The party reached an electoral dimension that now allows it to attempt to form a coalition to reach power.
The far-right was always strong in Saxony-Anhalt, but this victory represents a significant qualitative leap in its capacity for political influence in the German state.
Historian Manuel Loff is the academic voice analyzing this rise, offering an academic perspective on the factors that contributed to this historic result for the radical right in Germany.
