In his article, the author investigates the phenomenon of anti-Polish sentiment in Deutsche Stimme, which is the most prominent monthly newspaper of the far right-wing party, Nationaldemokratische Partei Deutschlands (German National Party, NPD). Anti-Polish sentiment is described as a mix of attitudes and behaviours that are hostile towards the Polish state, nation, citizens and culture. This definition includes all discriminatory statements, press releases and all other anti-Polish activities. The anti-Polish sentiment is present in Deutsche Stimme on three levels. The first one touches on the area of historical revisionism. The second one focuses on economic factors and immigration, and the third one is centred around long-term stereotypes that are rooted in history. The article presents different ways of expressing the anti-Polish sentiment and contains a selection of illustrations from the NPD’s monthly.
