Euroscepticism: Levels of Research and Modes of Manifestation

Nebojša Blanuša ; Fakultet političkih znanosti, Sveučilište u Zagrebu, Zagreb, Hrvatska

Sažetak

The aim of the article is to explore some existing defi nitions of Euro-scepticism in empirical research that deal with the problems of joining the European Union by postsocialist countries and with the possibility of their application to the Croatian case. In accordance with these conceptualisations, Euro-scepticism is analysed at the level of the general population of citizens, i.e. of public opinion, and of the political and party élites, respectively. In doing so, the analysis also points to the defi ciencies of such defi nitions and in certain aspects seeks to improve them through ideas and interpretations of a psychoanalytically informed discourse theory. At the same time, it examines the possibilities and modes of identifi cation with the European Union in Croatia.
