?:abstract
  • What are the cultural roots of radical-right voting? We propose that the structure of local social ties may make certain communities more susceptible to voting for radical-right parties. We adopt the concept of “parochialism”, describing communities which are marked by higher within-group trust, but lower generalized trust. Individuals in parochial communities may feel more threatened by the prospective arrival of outsiders than those in cosmopolitan regions. As a consequence, they are more likely to support parties that seek to curtail the in ow of outsiders. To test these propositions, we introduce a new measure of parochialism. Based on 50,000 responses to a unique online survey in Germany, we use the strength of local dialects as a measure of parochialism. Using both aggregate and individual-level data, we demonstrate that dialect strength is a strong predictor of voting for the radical-right AfD party. Finally, we show that the e ect of parochialism becomes larger as the political salience of the recent refugee crisis increases. (xsd:string)
