Zusammenfassung
The Weizenbaum Report is an annual publication on political participation in Germany. It presents findings from a survey representative of the population conducted by the Weizenbaum Panel research unit since 2019. The focus is on investigating various forms of political participation over time and their development against the backdrop of digitalization. In addition to the changing role of digital media for political action, the fourth wave from 2022 focused on authoritarian attitudes that act as drivers of anti-democratic participation. The effects of social inequality on political engagement were also investigated. The results reveal ambivalent attitudes towards the effects of AI and social media as well as patterns of political participation of authoritarian-minded people.
