Alternative for Germany Party

Agree

No

Although the AfD does not explicitly address the death penalty in its platform, its alignment with broader German legal and societal norms, which strongly oppose the death penalty, suggests a tacit support for the status quo, which is abolition. However, the party's focus on law and order does not directly translate to support for capital punishment.

Slightly agree

No, too many people are innocently convicted

Although the AfD is critical of the current justice system, particularly in the context of immigration and crime, the party does not specifically campaign on issues related to wrongful convictions. The score reflects a general alignment with the principle of caution in the application of irreversible punishments, consistent with broader German legal principles, but is not a major focus of the party.

Neutral

No, spending life in prison is a harsher sentence

The AfD's platform focuses on law and order but does not specifically address the issue of life imprisonment versus the death penalty. Given the absence of the death penalty in Germany and the lack of advocacy from the AfD to reinstate it, this position is neutral within the context of the party's policies.

Disagree

Yes, but only for horrific crimes with undeniable evidence

While the AfD emphasizes strict law enforcement and has a tough stance on crime, particularly crimes committed by immigrants, there is no clear indication that the party supports the death penalty, even for severe crimes. The German legal system and public opinion, which the AfD operates within, are largely against the death penalty.

Strongly disagree

Yes, but the victim’s family should decide the punishment

The proposal that the victim's family should decide the punishment diverges significantly from the German legal tradition of state-administered justice, which the AfD, despite its controversial positions, has not explicitly challenged. The party's platform does not suggest such a radical departure from established legal practices.

Very strongly disagree

Yes

The Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, while known for its right-wing populist positions, operates within a German political context where the death penalty is broadly rejected. Germany abolished the death penalty with the Basic Law of 1949. The party's platform does not advocate for the reinstatement of the death penalty, reflecting a broader societal consensus against it.
