Informationsdienst gegen Rechtsextremismus

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Informationsdienst gegen Rechtsextremismus (IDGR) (Information Service against Right-Wing Extremism) was a German-language internet portal devoted to collecting information about persons, organisations and publications which promote right-wing extremism, Antisemitism and Holocaust denial.^[1] It was founded in 1998 and maintained until 2006 by Margret Chatwin. Critics have accused the IDGR of engaging in unduly exposing and defaming individuals on the political right, and of being associated with far-left extremism.^[2]
