Das Virus der Aggression: Politisch motivierte Gewalt hat in der Pandemie zugenommen

Author

Abstract

Seit Beginn der Corona-Pandemie sehen sich politisch Verantwortliche, gerade auf lokaler Ebene, vermehrt Angriffen ausgesetzt: Körperverletzung, Erpressung oder Raub haben deutlich zugenommen. Die Vermutung, dass sich darin Frust über die Pandemiemaßnahmen äußert, liegt nahe – lässt sich aber nicht belegen.
