Frustrated Europeanism: dissatisfaction does not mean Euroscepticism

Political researchers argue that dissatisfaction with the European Union should not automatically be read as Euroscepticism. The concept of 'frustrated Europeanism' describes citizens who remain committed to European integration but are frustrated with how the EU currently works, suggesting analysts and commentators should distinguish between criticism of the union and rejection of it.

Why now: The distinction matters for interpreting voter sentiment ahead of ongoing EU political debates.
