'Our findings suggest that to counter the radical right’s growing popularity in the working class, left-wing parties...should reclaim the language of class politics & economic antagonism that formed the heart of the left tradition.'

Finde super, dass die Zahl 3000 immer noch pauschal für die Zukunft steht. Wie bei so Berliner Bars aus den 90ern. Also: alles Retro.
