“…In light of the above analysis, understanding the basis of the ideologisation of Christianity by right-wing populists is possible by becoming aware of the following three contexts in which the Christian religion functions in relation to populism (Rebenstorf 2018;Chrostowski 2021b): a) Theological-doctrinal context: The Christian religious doctrine, which is built around the teaching of the love of God and neighbours (Mt 22: 36-40), contains three main catalysts for populist, antisocial and fascist attitudes: a) the doctrine of election, which assumes the division into persons belonging and not belonging to a given religious group; b) the doctrine of revelation and the associated claims to exclusivity for the possession of truth; and c) the question of theocracy or secularity of the state (Allport 1966;Rebenstorf 2018;Chrostowski 2021bChrostowski , 2022bSteinmann 2022). b) Socio-cultural context: Religions adapt to the social, national, ethnic, or structural tensions taking place in a given country and society (Rebenstorf 2018;Chrostowski 2021b).…”

Since 2015, power in Poland has been exercised by the right-wing populist coalition, led by the socially conservative Law and Justice (PiS) party. The deconfliction mark of these governments became the “unholy alliance” with Christianity, which was a movement that used populist manipulation based on exacerbating social dichotomy, campaigning against the LGBT community, nationalism, xenophobia, attitudes of rejection, anti-pluralism and anti-establishment. In this context, the aim of this article is to theoretically analyse the ideological and religious frames between right-wing populism and Christianity in Poland. The considerations begin with the presentation of the theoretical background, that is, the relationship that exists between the populist “thin-core ideology” and Christianity within the framework of ideological appropriation of religion by populists. Furthermore, the author will make an attempt to decipher mutual influences and seek answers to the question: How did PiS “hijack” the Catholic Church in Poland? The next step will present a comparative identification of convergent and divergent frameworks between right-wing populists and the Catholic Church in Poland. Finally, the article will outline indications for the socio-pastoral prevention of populism and a summary of the main results.

Seven Decades of Gender Differences in German Voting Behavior

This article describes long-term changes in gender differences in voting behavior in Germany, using a globally unique data source: information from real ballots. Compared with self-reports in available surveys, actual votes counted by gender and age groups have three advantages: neither representativeness issues nor social desirability bias, a huge sample, and coverage of seven decades, beginning in 1953. Besides party-specific voting patterns, I analyze summary measures for gender dissimilarities, both overall and separated by age groups. The modern gender gap—women voting more left-wing than men—first appeared in Germany in the 2017 election, surprisingly late compared with previous international research. The speed and structure with which the modern gender gap grew suggest that it is due to period effects rather than cohort effects. The modern gender gap differs by age group and, in post-World War II Germany, women and men have never been as divided about politics as the youngest voters in 2021. These findings partly contrast with previous survey-based results. To explore whether this contrast stems from the smaller sample sizes of previous studies or gendered survey bias (e.g., more social desirability bias among women), I compare results from real ballots with estimates from two survey data sources. Findings suggest that large surveys might provide reasonable estimates at the aggregate level but might overestimate the gender gap for more radical parties such as the AfD (Alternative for Germany).

Religiöse Vielfalt als Bedrohung oder Bereicherung? Ergebnisse des Bertelsmann Religionsmonitors 2017 im Ländervergleich

ZusammenfassungReligionszugehörigkeit und Religiosität sind auf eine andere Weise wieder in das Licht der Öffentlichkeit zurückgekehrt, als von vielen erwartet wurde. So führte die Ausreitung religiöser Pluralisierung zu Konflikten. Diese beruhen zu großen Teilen auf Kategorisierungen und der Markierung kultureller Differenz. Die 2015 mobilisierten Vorurteile gegenüber muslimischen Migrant:innen, brachten nur einen bereits vorher bestehenden antimuslimischen Rassismus an den Tag. Dies zeigen neue Ergebnisse des Bertelsmann Religionsmonitors 2017 in mehreren europäischen Ländern. Das Gefühl einer Bedrohung durch „den Islam“ erweist sich als verschärfend für diese Konstellation. Gleichzeitig erweist sich sowohl diese Mobilisierung als auch der bestehende antimuslimische Rassismus als teilweise toxische Mischung für eine demokratische politische Kultur. So wie diese Vorurteile für manche das Einstiegstor in rechtsradikale Haltungen sind, steht die mit dem antimuslimischen Rassismus verbundene Ablehnung von Pluralität in einem fundamentalen Gegensatz zur liberalen Demokratie. Dabei ist dieses Ergebnis länderübergreifend gültig, allein bestehend Variationen.
