In the eighth episode of “Political Science? No Problem et al.”
we talk to Björn Bremer about how the public thinks about
austerity politics in the context of Germany's upcoming election.
How does public opinion look on spending cuts and what drives
these preferences? In what policy areas are spending cuts met
with greater resistance and how does the public prioritize debt
lending, raising taxes and expenditure reduction? We also talk
about how austerity cuts and borrowing affect electoral politics
and party branding.
