The Europhile Fringe?

Regionalist Party Support for European Integration

University of Chicago, USA

The relationship between European integration and regionalist parties is still a largely unexplored area of research. In this paper, I evaluate whether regionalist parties perceive the European Union (EU) as an ally or an enemy. Using expert surveys, I assess the views of regionalist parties on European integration and I find that regionalist political parties are consistently pro-EU across time, space, and issue area. I find further support for this finding in a case study of the Scottish National Party.

Key Words: Euroskepticism • multi-level governance • regionalist parties
