Germans are some of the most fearful of the potential for terror attacks in the world, pollster Ipsos Mori find in their periodic barometer of global sentiment on concern for key issues. Terrorism fear has increased from four to 20 per cent in just one year, the pollster states.

Other worries detected by Ipsos, reports national newspaper of record Die Welt, for Germans included a rapid increase for “the rise of extremism”, going from 14 per cent to 20 per cent in a year, and immigration at 33 per cent. The greatest single issue picked out by Germans, however, is crime at 37 per cent, up a staggering 13 per cent.

Curiously, concern about crime was lowest in the European nations which have so far foregone the prevailing zeitgeist for transformation into migration societies. Just seven per cent of Hungarians are worried about crime and violence, while the figure is 11 per cent in Poland. Reflecting that trend in Asia, similarly monocultural Japan is third-lowest, with just 12 per cent worried about crime.
