Many writers have argued that anti-immigration politics in Germanyand other West European countries have been driven by radical-rightparties or the electoral maneuvering of national politiciansfrom established parties. Others have argued that waves of violenceagainst immigrants and ethnic minorities have spurred anti-immigrationpolitics, or that racist ideologies and socioeconomic inequalityare the root causes. By comparison, authors have paid relatively littleattention to anti-immigration mobilization at subnational levels,including the public positions taken by subnational politicians andthe activities of movement groups, or "challengers." Nonetheless,research has shown that subnational politicians are often importantin pressing national campaigns for immigration controls. Moreover,as I have argued elsewhere, anti-immigration politicians in Britainand Germany have responded in large part to local challengers, whowere aided by political elites at local and regional levels
