AfD: Data Analysis, Current Polls, and Policy Positions

The AfD's worldview is deeply rooted in pronounced national conservatism and the defense of a perceived threatened national identity. It views the populace as a homogeneous unit, emphasizing traditional family values and Judeo-Christian heritage. The state is primarily understood as a protector of its own citizens, with a profound skepticism towards supranational institutions and globalist influences shaping its ideological framework. At its core, the party is driven by fears of sovereignty loss and cultural identity transformation.

The party focuses on a restrictive migration policy, advocating for consistent deportations and the protection of national borders. Economically, it pursues a liberal-conservative course, demanding tax cuts and reduced bureaucracy, while vehemently rejecting current climate policies and the energy transition. Its agenda specifically targets citizens who feel unrepresented by established institutions, as well as conservative voters in rural and economically disadvantaged regions.

Strategically, the AfD positions itself as an anti-establishment force and a radical opposition. It employs provocative rhetoric to shift the boundaries of public discourse and challenge state institutions and the media landscape. While officially adhering to the rule of law, critics and constitutional protection agencies accuse the party of relativizing democratic principles and endangering parliamentary culture. Within the party system, it acts as an outsider whose polarizing tactics often compel other parties to form strategic alliances.

We surveyed voters across all parties within the PolitPro community about their stances on key political issues. The bars illustrate the range of opinions among AfD supporters. A shorter bar indicates a more homogeneous opinion among supporters. Where available, the party's official position is displayed as a circle.

These values are derived from data provided by AfD supporters on the PolitPro platform. While this data is not a traditional representative random sample, the high number of participants provides deep insights into the priorities and values of the active voter base.
