The growth of the right wing in a reunited Germany since the end of the Cold War has been a topic of study, with xenophobia and attacks on foreigners causing acute anxiety. The author explores the historical context, the effects of the end of the Cold War, and the growth of xenophobia and right-wing attitudes in the former GDR. Germany's current position as a regional super-power and its contribution to European economic progress make this text a significant and topical contribution.

Since the end of the Cold War, Germany has experienced a surge in xenophobia and attacks on foreigners, particularly asylum-seekers. This phenomenon, which came after the euphoria of the Berlin Wall's fall and the country's reunification, has caused deep anxiety within Germany. While these issues are not unique to Germany, their echoes of Nazism have raised concerns about how this could happen in a country that had strongly rejected its past and celebrated its anti-fascism and liberal democracy.

The author of this study sets the development in its historical context, highlighting the long-standing influence and power of the right wing in German conservative politics. He explores the effects of the end of the Cold War on German society and politics, as well as the growth of xenophobia and right-wing attitudes in the former GDR since the collapse of communism.

Germany's current position as a regional superpower and its contributions to European economic progress make this text a significant and timely contribution to the understanding of the political landscape in Germany and Europe.
