"Drawing on data from various sources, the article assesses the extent of xenophobia and the potential support base for right-wing extremism in the united Germany. The data show that West Germany displayed a considerable level of xenophobia before unification, and that at present, Germans in east and west display strikingly similar patterns of hostility towards foreigners. In comparison to their European neighbours, however, the Germans are not markedly different. In addition to levels of education, and placement on a Left-Right scale, the driving force behind xenophobic attitudes - both in Germany and in other European Community states - are economic and social fears and a perception of relative deprivation." Der Verfasser benutzt unter anderem Daten der ALLBUS-Befragungen von 1980, 1984, 1988, 1990, 1991 und 1992
