The Future of Democracy Begins with Critical Debate
How unconstitutional is the AfD? Jonas Deyda and Dr. Benno Baumbauer will address this question on October 13, 2026, at the Erlangen City Library. The lecture followed by a discussion is part of the FAU lecture series The Future of Democracy and combines legal analysis with political classification.
A Report in the Spotlight

The study published in June 2026 evaluates party programs, parliamentary documents, and other extensive datasets. The focus is on the question of which constitutional standards are applied to the AfD and how the legal argumentation of the report is structured.
