Camp Proximity Paradox: Nearby Nazi Sites Boost Far-Right Voting in Germany

This study investigates the long-term impact of living near concentration camps during WWII on voting behavior for radical right parties in post-war elections. It finds a strong correlation between proximity to these sites and increased support for far-right candidates, suggesting that frequent exposure may lead to 'memory satiation'. This effect potentially makes voters more receptive to revisionist narratives downplaying the Holocaust's significance.
