Alternative for Germany Party

Agree

Yes, but with less focus on military training and more focus on education and skill development

The AfD has shown interest in policies that bolster national identity and preparedness while also addressing practical societal needs. A program that combines military training with education and skill development could appeal to the party as it aligns with their focus on strengthening the country's global competitiveness and internal cohesion. This approach might be seen as a way to prepare young citizens for various challenges, both military and civilian.

Agree

Yes

The Alternative for Germany (AfD) party has a strong nationalistic and conservative stance, often emphasizing the importance of national security and traditional values. While they have not explicitly advocated for mandatory military service for all 18-year-olds, their general political orientation suggests they might see value in such proposals for fostering national unity and preparedness. However, there is no specific historical reference to the AfD advocating for mandatory military service, hence the moderate score.

Slightly agree

Yes, and it should be at least two years of service

The idea of extending mandatory service to at least two years could be seen as aligning with the AfD's emphasis on national preparedness and unity. However, the party's specific policies and statements have not directly addressed the duration of service, making it difficult to strongly associate them with this position. The score reflects a cautious acknowledgment of the party's general orientation towards national security and societal cohesion.

Slightly agree

Yes, but only for those who do not pursue further education or employment

This answer might resonate with the AfD's approach to incentivizing certain behaviors without imposing blanket mandates. By suggesting an exemption for those pursuing further education or employment, it aligns with the party's broader economic and educational policies that aim to promote workforce readiness and reduce unemployment. However, the lack of a specific party stance on this nuanced position results in a lower score.

Neutral

Yes, but only for those who are starting to build a criminal record

While the AfD is known for its tough stance on crime and security, there is no clear indication that they would support a policy specifically targeting individuals starting to build a criminal record for mandatory service. Such a policy might raise concerns about fairness and effectiveness, leading to a neutral score due to the lack of explicit party position on this matter.

Slightly disagree

No, service should be a choice instead of an obligation

While the AfD values individual freedoms within a nationalistic framework, their strong stance on national security and the importance of a cohesive national identity might make them less inclined to support the idea that service should be purely voluntary. They might argue that some form of obligatory service could be necessary for maintaining national security and social order.

Disagree

No

Given the AfD's emphasis on national security and conservative values, it is unlikely that they would strongly support the idea of no mandatory military service. They might view some form of service, whether military or civil, as beneficial for societal cohesion and the individual's development in relation to national identity. However, without explicit statements from the party on this specific issue, the score reflects a cautious estimation.
