A N A LY S I S DEMOCRACY AND HUMAN RIGHTS MAINSTREAM AND FAR RIGHT ISLAMOPHOBIA A UK-Germany comparison Seema Syeda and Titus Molkenbur January 2023 Far-right figures propagate the so-called»Great Replace­ment Theory«, which assumes an elite conspiracy aimed at deliberately minoritising an imagined ethnically homoge­nous white majority. The framing of»clan criminali­ty« has increasingly been used in Germany to portray crimi­nals as members of archaic family networks, supposedly in contrast to»Western val­ues«. In the UK, responses to extremist violence and gang­led sex abuse is often racialised as a Muslim problem. The far right is organising in­ternationally to build a globally connected movement of ethno­nationalists that share Muslim communities as a common target. The left and progres­sive response must also be international.
