The formation of the KomRex

  • After the series of murders by the right-wing terrorist group "National Socialist Underground" (NSU) became known in 2011, the social discourse on the causes and manifestations of organized right-wing extremism as well as the manifestation and spread of right-wing extremist attitudes in the population increased. Friedrich Schiller University Jena has been making important contributions to this topic since the early 1990s.
