    Why socialism is making a surprise comeback in Germany | Berlin Briefing Podcast

    While the far-right AfD has seized global attention, the far left of German politics is also making gains. The Left Party was the #1 choice for first-time voters in the recent elections, gaining support with a bold program of tax increases for the rich, a pacifist foreign policy, and the most pro-immigration platform of any German party. Now an accident of history has given it a crucial role in shaping the country’s political future. Why are so many young voters drawn to this agenda? How did the Left Party transform from its roots in communist East Germany to Gen Z magnet today? And why did it help its political nemesis Friedrich Merz
    become chancellor? DW’s Richard Walker unpacks this party and its potential with Matthew Moore and Bernd Riegert from the DW politics team.
