The exit process is accompanied by competent social workers who mentor, advise, and support. It comprises: • Reduction of effects of social dependencies on the right-wing extremist scene • A comprehensive revision and reorientation of biographical perspectives The exit process aims at: • Ideological and social distancing from the right-wing extremist scene • Reintegrating the dropout into society • Empowering the dropout to live a self-determined life in a pluralistic and democratic society For the program, ideological reappraisal does not mean replacing an undesirable worldview with another, predetermined worldview; it means to comprehend the biography of each dropout individually, to identify individual factors of attraction which have favoured the entry into the scene, and to work out ways of either neutralizing these factors or substituting them in a socially adequate way outside the scene--without having to adopt another ideology.
