Abstract

Making Sense of the European Union: Mapping ‘Thought Communities’ in Six EU Member States. How do Europeans make sense of the European Union (EU) and its processes of integration? Are there patterns of such understanding shared by citizens across borders of EU member states? The current article uses relational class analysis (RCA) to establish whether there are groups of citizens in selected EU member states sharing ideational construals of the EU. The purpose here is to complement extant studies of public attitudes towards the EU by exploring how citizens actually make sense of the Union. we develop an analytical framework and apply it to analyze survey data from a representative sample of citizens from six EU member states – Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy and Slovakia (N=4249).

理解欧盟:绘制六个欧盟成员国的“思想共同体”

理解欧盟：绘制六个欧盟成员国的“思想共同体”。欧洲人如何理解欧盟及其一体化进程？跨越欧盟成员国边界的公民是否有这种理解模式？本文使用关系类分析（RCA）来确定在选定的欧盟成员国中是否有公民群体共享对欧盟的概念解释。这里的目的是通过探索公民如何真正理解欧盟来补充现有的公众对欧盟态度的研究。我们开发了一个分析框架，并将其应用于分析来自六个欧盟成员国——芬兰、法国、德国、匈牙利、意大利和斯洛伐克（N=4249）的代表性公民样本的调查数据。《社会学2020》，第52卷（第6期：527-558）https://doi.org/10.31577/sociologia.2020.52.6.22
