Brexit research leaders and investigators have put together a research paper looking at the importance of national identity as a predictor of Eurosceptic attitudes. According to several recent studies, national identity played a significant role in the UK’s vote to leave the EU. Analysis of data from the Centre for Social Investigation’s longitudinal Brexit survey confirms that national identity is indeed likely to have played such a role. UK in a Changing Europe The UK in a Changing Europe promotes rigorous, high-quality and independent research into the complex and ever changing relationship between the UK and the European Union (EU). It provides an authoritative, non-partisan and impartial reference point for those looking for information, insights and analysis about UK-EU relations that stands aside from the politics surrounding the debate. The Initiative’s work is tailored to be easily accessible to policy makers, businesses, journalists, civil society organisations, educational institutions and the general public who are interested in the UK’s relationship with the EU. It is funded by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC), and based at King’s College London. |
