Early federal elections will be held in Germany on 23 February. The key election issue: the economic crisis. In 2024, Germany's gross domestic product (GDP) shrank for the second year in a row - the last time this happened was in 2002/03. Experts from the Faculty of Business Administration and Economics at Paderborn University categorise the current situation and points of contention from an academic perspective.
