Britain’s Europe Question: Views from the UK and the Continent
On June 23, a European Union country will, for the first time, hold a referendum on whether to stay in or leave the bloc. If the UK votes to leave, this will likely have long-lasting consequences both domestically and in the other 27 EU members. What do people throughout the EU think about the UK's renegotiation process? What are the implications of the referendum for direct democracy in Europe? Join us as researchers from the University of Edinburgh and the German think tank d|part present new work on attitudes towards the referendum in the UK and six other EU member states.

It does this through scholars-in-residence, seminars, policy study groups, media commentary, international conferences and publications. Activities cover a wide range of topics, from the role of NATO, the European Union and the OSCE to European energy security, trade disputes, challenges to democracy, and counter-terrorism. The program investigates European approaches to policy issues of importance to the United States, including globalization, digital transformation, climate, migration, global governance, and relations with Russia and Eurasia, China and the Indo-Pacific, the Middle East and Africa.
