The Capital and the May Day Riots | People & Politics

On May 1, the whole of Germany's eyes will be on the district of Kreuzberg, traditionally the center of the annual May Day riots.This year, left-wing activists have threatened violence in response to planned Neo-Nazi demonstrations, and the police are concerned the clashes might even result in deaths. Politicians are alarmed by the rise in left-wing violence, and sociologists are at a loss to explain what's behind it.
