As the Eurozone sinks deeper into the financial crisis, it's most reliable member, Germany, would be the most concerned. And as disillusionment with the political establishment sets in, support appears to be shifting to a new party that has no official stance on the EU or its troubles, as RT found out in Berlin.

But the body has recently come under increasing criticism for failing to detect a right-wing terror cell while at the same time spying on politicians from the Left Party.

Discussion has resumed in Germany about whether to ban the National Democratic Party, the NPD. Founded in 1964, it espouses nationalistic and revanchist views. But, like other parties, it receives financial support from the state. In 2003, the Constitutional Court rejected for procedural reasons a request to have it banned.

Germany is one of the fastest-aging countries in the world. At the same time, the elderly are gaining more and more power: as a growing voter bloc, as consumers, and as decision makers. Many young people are turning against what they call a "pensioners' democracy". Demographer Dr. Herwig Birg explains the generational conflict in an aging Germany.

Thilo Sarrazin, former finance minister in the city of Berlin and board member of the Bundesbank, has triggered a nationwide debate with remarks about what he calls the failed integration of Muslim immigrants in Germany, their lack of education and 'above average criminal' tendencies.

International sport was largely dominated by communist East Germany in the 1970s and 80s. But it has since transpired that the state systematically doped its athletes and their success was a sham.Many former trainers have consistently denied any wrongdoing,even though scores of athletes have been left with serious health problems. But now,twenty years after the fall of the Berlin Wall,a group of former trainers have admitted their guilt - and got off scott-free. They all currently coach Germany's top track-and-field stars,and they've been told their jobs are safe,despite their confession.

Support for the FDP,Germany's liberal Free Democratic Party,is currently at its highest in decades. That's largely thanks to party leader Guido Westerwelle,the FDP's heart and soul. But he's such a dominant figure that he leaves little room for the younger generation - such as Philipp Rösler,deputy state premier of Lower Saxony. How do he and other up and coming young FPD politicians feel about the party line and its leader? As the general election approaches,we find out.

Via The Huffington Post: "..."Incumbency plus austerity equals political death," MP Jon Trickett, a top official with Ed Miliband's Labour Party, told HuffPost. "There is a general spirit across Europe, and perhaps in the US, against the political elite"...One of the most powerful messages that US politicians have delivered to voters over the past few years is the warning that the nation will "become Greece" if it doesn't lower its debt and deficit. But now voters in Greece and across Europe are sending back a warning of their own...".* The Young Turks host Cenk Uygur explains how *Read more from Ryan Grim, Ned Simons, and Alexandre Phalippou: www.huffingtonpost.com Subscribe to The Young Turks: bit.ly Find out how to watch The Young Turks on Current by clicking here: www.current.com The Largest Online New Show in the World.

Germany's green revolution stifled by subsidy cuts For downloads and more information visit: www.journeyman.tv Follow us on Facebook (goo.gl or Twitter (www.twitter.com In villages across Germany the people have seized power by generating enough renewable energy to supply their needs. But with the government cutting subsidies to small producers will this green revolution run out of steam? Following the Chernobyl disaster a community around Schönau in the Black Forest decided to buy their local plant and turn it into a co-operative. Now the villagers power themselves with solar or wind energy and then sell the excess to the national grid. "We started because we wanted to help, but then it became ecoomically interesting for all those who invested." After the Fukishima incident, President Merkel pledged to close the country's nuclear reactors and naturally, this boosted interest in the Schönau scheme. However, the government recently announced a 30% reduction in subsidies to small energy producers, stifling similar green communities across the country. "The phasing out of nuclear energy cannot be achieved without subsidising renewable energy". As anger amongst environmental activists swells, has the influence of large energy companies again infected national politics? A Film By SBS Distributed By Journeyman Pictures April 2012

Since 1950, some 4,5 Million people have immigrated to Germany - most of them from Russia's ethnic German community. Hundreds of thousands of them settled here after German re-unification. But some chose to stay in Russia or ultimately returned there. During the Second World War, many ethnic Germans were forceably settled in the Siberian city of Omsk. We report on the everyday life of the few who remain there.

Violent austerity protests have erupted in the Italian city of Naples, after enraged demonstrators attempted to storm a local tax office. Protesters threw paint and rocks at police, who then charged crowds and beat them with batons. The demonstration began after the tax office refused to shut down for a period of mourning in the wake of a man's suicide after a visit by tax collecters. This, as Europe experiences new tensions stemming from a deadlocked government in Greece. Germany, though, is already guarding against any possible fallout, saying the Euro could survive with or without Greece. But financial journalist Peter Bild is sceptical of Berlin's apparent confidence.

Slavoj Zizek: Far Right and Anti-Immigrant Politicians on the Rise in Europe We turn now to Europe, where many are concerned about the growing acceptability of anti-immigrant rhetoric and policies. Far from just being expressed by the extreme right wing, the anti-immigrant trend has entered the mainstream. German Chancellor Angela Merkel told a gathering of young members of her conservative Christian Democratic Union party this weekend that multiculturalism has utterly failed. A recent German poll found 13 percent of Germans would welcome the arrival of a new "Führer," and more than a third of Germans feel the country is "overrun by foreigners." We speak to the world-renowned philosopher Slavoj Zizek, who has the been called "the Elvis of cultural theory." [includes rush transcript]
