What's happening to the world's fourth-largest economy? In contrast to other large industrial nations, and in comparison to Europe, Germany’s economy is weakening. Companies

are complaining about poor business conditions, such as high energy prices. There is already talk of creeping de-industrialization, and some economists and politicians believe that Germany is once again, “the sick man of Europe.” At the same time, right-wing populist attitudes are on the rise, and more people are critical of democracy.
