Description

Sebastian Jungkunz, Nina Osenbrügge, and Marc Helbling release a data set on radical and extremist views in Europe and beyond, in a paper from 2026. Comparing such views across countries needs scales that mean the same thing in each place. No shared cross-country scales for left, right, and general extremism existed before.

The data set holds answers from more than eighteen thousand people in ten surveys from 2022 to 2024 across seven countries. It adds a reaction-time test for hidden extremist leanings. Links to party support let researchers trace how private views turn into votes. The authors pitch it for work on democratic resilience and polarization.
