The term "antisemitic parties" ({{langx|de|Antisemitenparteien}}) refers to several political parties in the [[German Empire]] (1871–1918) that established [[antisemitism]] as a core element of their [[party platform]]. Although they succeeded in winning a number of constituencies, they remained politically insignificant overall. These parties were heavily focused on [[economic policy]] and were primarily supported by [[Protestants]] in rural regions. |
