We were at the law careers fair "Juracon" and produced a podcast on site together with the European student association ELSA.
In conversation with our two prominent guests and numerous students, we asked whether corona protests, digitization and the Ukraine war have changed political extremism in Germany and what new dangers have arisen.

We asked federal constitutional judge Peter Müller where the line runs between legitimate expression of opinion and anti-constitutionalism, whether all Corona lateral thinkers are extremists and how his experiences from the NPD ban proceedings can be transferred to current challenges.
Valentin Lippmann, legal policy spokesman for the Greens in the state parliament, told us about his personal experiences with a wide variety of extremists in Saxony and explained why the traffic light coalition has not yet presented a law for party-related foundations.
He also explains why the Greens are in coalition with the Left Party in three federal states, although the Office for the Protection of the Constitution classifies parts of the Left Party as left-wing extremists.
Our viewers asked questions about extremism on social media, the role of criminal law in the fight against constitutional enemies and the intensity of political extremism across Europe.
