Alternative for Germany and Xi-era CCP
Measured distance across six axes
The same broad family. They agree within three points on CU, ID, CH. No axis separates them by eight points or more.
Axis by axis
| Axis | AfD | Xi-era CCP | Gap | Reading | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| EC · Economic organisation | +04 | −02 | 6 | Differs | Real difference, but not the dividing line. |
| CU · Social and cultural order | +09 | +08 | 1 | Agrees | Effectively the same position. Not what an argument between them is about. |
| AU · Organisation of power | +05 | +10 | 5 | Differs | Real difference, but not the dividing line. |
| SC · Scale of decision | +03 | +10 | 7 | Differs | Real difference, but not the dividing line. |
| ID · Rule of membership | +08 | +07 | 1 | Agrees | Effectively the same position. Not what an argument between them is about. |
| CH · Method and tempo | 00 | −02 | 2 | Agrees | Effectively the same position. Not what an argument between them is about. |
Each axis runs from −10 to +10; the distance is the straight-line separation across all six at once, out of a maximum of 49.0. How the scoring works →
The evidence behind the widest gaps
A distance figure is worth nothing unless the scores behind it can be checked. These are the artefacts supporting the axes that separate these two most.
AfD · SC +03
Coded +3: national sovereignty against the EU, federalist within Germany.
- Programme textProgramme commitments to a German exit from the EU in its present form.
Xi-era CCP · SC +10
At the ceiling: village elections curtailed, Hong Kong's separate system dismantled, autonomy in Xinjiang and Tibet nominal.
- Documented act or statuteThe 2020 national security law and 2021 electoral overhaul ended Hong Kong's separate political system.
What this comparison does not establish
Proximity means similarity of stated position. It carries no claim about competence, circumstance, scale of operation, or what either organisation actually did to the people under it. Two organisations can sit close together and produce entirely different histories, because those things are not on any axis and could not be.
Alternative for Germany
2013– · Germany
Founded against euro bailouts, reoriented around immigration, national identity and rejection of climate policy.
Xi-era CCP
2012– · China
Party leadership over everything, national rejuvenation, common prosperity, and discipline of private capital.
Distance is not the whole answer. Two organisations can sit the same distance apart for entirely different reasons, and the reason is the content of any claim about them. Open the comparison in the atlas to weight the axes yourself.
