Survey research shows that male workers in particular have a far above-average presence among sympathizers of radical right-wing parties and movements. These orientations are not only the result of a split, but also occur because parts of the working class feel abandoned by the center-left parties. A demobilized class society forms the breeding ground for the radical right.
