Right-Wing Extremist Mobilization in Germany

DOI

This is a dataset on right-wing extremist demonstrations that took place in Germany between 2005 and December 2022. We used the German federal government’s answers to brief parliamentary questions (Kleine Anfragen) tabled by the opposition left-wing party Die Linke to create this dataset. The dataset consists of 3756 observations and includes information on the location, date, number of participants, organizing actors, and the mottos of the right-wing ex-tremist demonstrations. Please note that we only use the information provided in the resources. We imported, cleaned, and merged the available data and geocoded the location variables. Version 2.0.0 contains additional information for the years 2021 and 2022. For further details see rwe_methods_report_2023.pdf. For an interactive examination of the dataset, we invite users to access the visual representation via: https://germanextremismplotly.shinyapps.io/rwm_dash_en/
