["Proud of violence". Psychoanalytic remarks on adolescence and right extremism].
Young people with extremist right-wing leanings who join together to form gangs frequently come from a social background which has had a traumatic influence on their biographies from an early stage. The right-wing radical group functions as a substitute for caring parents and other figures that these youngsters can look up to. Within these constellations they then act out the violence that they themselves have been the victims of. The author points out that, both on an individual and social plane, these young people stand for facets of our own selves that we have severed off or negated and conflicts which we have yet to come to terms with.
