Within the Narrative Policy Framework (NPF), policy actors leverage emotionally charged narratives to influence public opinion and policy processes. This article explores the emotional dimensions of policy communication during the 2024 European Parliament elections, a critical period for energy policy. Amidst the rise of far-right parties, we investigate how party actors in Germany and Italy narrated energy issues and used emotionalization strategies. Using a novel dataset of Instagram posts, we combine computational dictionary-based and qualitative content analysis to trace emotions in energy policy narratives (N = 253). Our study extends the use of novel emotion dictionaries within the NPF to the European policy context and multilingual social-media data. Findings reveal that emotions tend to be mixed within policy narratives. While “affinity” and “compassion” are emphasized, emotion types differ notably between parties.","PeriodicalId":52190,"journal":{"name":"European Policy Analysis","volume":"12 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2026-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/epa2.70048","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148193877","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Building on Terror Management Theory, we argue that fear affects individual citizens' compliance tendencies. The argument is empirically explored by looking at COVID-19 vaccination policies in Bulgaria and Sweden and surveying unvaccinated individuals. We demonstrate our argument by combining data from a mixture of methods (policy database, experimental survey, qualitative coding). Findings suggest vaccine-resistant individuals are strongly influenced by fear—particularly of side effects, vaccine development, and political control. From a Terror Management Perspective, fear for one's safety generates anxiety that can exacerbate health-defeating behaviors such as vaccine refusal. We therefore recommend that future policy interventions should (a) reinforce the anxiety buffering system of the public, and (b) protect against individuals' health-defeating defenses via enhanced communication and trust building.","PeriodicalId":52190,"journal":{"name":"European Policy Analysis","volume":"12 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2026-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/epa2.70039","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147618146","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The main questions we are called to answer are: What initiatives have been developed at EU level to address the covid-19 pandemic? Have these initiatives affected the Greek health system? To answer these questions, this article will use the theoretical lenses of Europeanization to make evident the interplay between European and national policies to address the covid-19 pandemic. As argued in this paper, from the EU's perspective, Europeanization was promoted as a top-down process and characterized by the efforts of the European institutions to mitigate the economic consequences of the covid-19 on national economies while promoting the development of tools and mechanisms to strengthen the national health systems against the effects of the pandemic. As a bottom-up approach, it seems that Greece influenced the EU's pandemic policy considerably. For the first time, Greece actively influenced EU's responses to the pandemic crisis uploading various innovative ideas, such as the PLF's and the EU's Covid Digital Certificate to the European level. Finally, studying the case of Greece, we observed interesting signs of the dynamic character of Europeanization where the feedback provided by Greece helped in the refinement of the EU's guidelines and policy recommendations.","PeriodicalId":52190,"journal":{"name":"European Policy Analysis","volume":"12 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/epa2.70040","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147618023","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
