EU Enlargements Fail to Shift National and European Identities: Study

European Integration

The article examines how people in France feel about the European Union and how their political beliefs influence those feelings. Traditional ways of measuring support for the EU are too simple. By analyzing survey data, the researchers found that French attitudes towards the EU are more complex than just being left or right-leaning. Concerns about social benefits and national identity play a role in how people view the EU. Overall, French citizens' opinions on EU integration are not straightforward.
