An evening about right-wing extremism, politics, and democracy in Europe
On September 22, 2026, the Duisburg City Archive will focus on a topic that goes far beyond the individual lecture evening: right-wing extremism in Germany and France. The event starts at 18:15 and brings current political developments, historical lines, and societal questions into a clear, concentrated framework.
A lecture with a European perspective
The central question is how right-wing extremist movements are developing in both countries, where patterns are similar, and where the differences lie. The evening aims for context rather than buzzwords and analytical depth rather than political simplification. This is exactly what appeals to an audience that wants to not only follow debates but also understand them.
Hélène Kohl as keynote speaker
The Franco-German journalist Hélène Kohl brings extensive experience from the French media landscape. According to event information, she worked for two decades for the Lagardère press group and later became independent with her own project, Le Podkast. This promises an evening of journalistic clarity, political acumen, and a perspective that takes both countries seriously.
Duisburg City Archive as a suitable place for debate and context
The Duisburg City Archive at Karmelplatz 5 is a fitting framework as a place for historical research and public communication for this discussion. The atmosphere is likely to be factual, attentive, and concentrated - ideal for everyone who values political education, contemporary history, and European connections. The location is centrally located in Duisburg, not far from the inner harbor and well integrated into the urban infrastructure.
Cooperation with political and cultural profile
The evening is organized in cooperation with the Franco-German Society Duisburg, the City Archive, the Franco-German Cultural Center Essen, the Foreign Society Dortmund, and Europe Direct. This collaboration adds additional authority to the event and shows how strongly the topic is embedded in regional and international educational work.
Conclusion: An evening for all who want to better understand Europe
The lecture evening promises well-founded analysis, current political references, and an engaging look at democracy in Germany and France. Those interested in political education, social issues, and European perspectives will experience a substantive evening here. This event deserves attention - and preferably your presence on site.
