This open access book focuses on the importance that EU
politicization has gained in European democracies and the
consequences for voting behaviour in six countries of the EU:
Belgium, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Portugal and Spain. Most of the
studies which research the way the EU is being legitimised focus on
the European Parliament elections. In this book we argue that to
understand how EU accountability works, it is necessary to focus
instead on national elections and the national political
environment. Through a detailed, multimethod analysis this book
establishes rigorously the paths of European accountability at the
national level, its propitious contexts in the media and
parliamentary debates, and whether the paths are similar from
Greece to Germany. The findings have implications for both national
and European Union democracy, underlining the importance that
national institutions have in enabling citizens to hold the EU
accountable.
