?:abstract
  • The influence of the Internet and social media (SM) on political participation is a pressing theme in current discussions. Across Europe, we witness increasing extreme right-wing populist (ERWP) voting tendencies. Although these actors rely heavily on online media, to date no study has empirically investigated if and how the use of the Internet and in particular SMrelates to ERWPvoting. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to explore this link. We tested the relationship with panel data drawn from the German population in the years2014,2015and 2016 and studiedthe connectionbetween their Internet use and Facebook use with the intention to vote for the German party Alternative fürDeutschland(AfD). The findings show a positive associationbetween ERWPvoting intention and increased political online discussion especially for Facebook(FB)users. By contrast, there is nolink between ERWPvoting intention andpolitical online information consumption. This study contributes to a better understanding of the role of the Internet for ERWPvoting. We discuss practical and theoretical implications of our findings. (xsd:string)
