- Abstract
After the end of the Cold War, the growth of right-wing forces is dramatic, especially in Europe countries. The extreme right-wing political groups’ view tend to support the nationalism, populism, and other political ideas with right tendencies. These right-wing supporters think that their superior identity is being threatened by foreign culture brought by immigrations and refugees. However, it’s a complex problem that what are the mechanisms and reasons behind the rising support rate of right-wing parties? This article attempts to analyze an area where this phenomenon has been remarkable since the end of the Cold War. Moreover, this research will elaborate the mechanism of the rise of right-wing forces in the east part of Germany, which is based on summarizing the previous research findings, and provide solid foundation for further studies. This article makes a comprehensive analysis of 23 articles and does some further discussions about the political factors, which are based on the factual data and existing research results.
