Abstract

This article discusses public opinion of EU integration in Estonia in a comparative perspective. It introduces the concept of ‘reactive identity’ and finds that, instead of the internal politics and socio‐economic factors put forward in previous research, identity is the key factor in explaining euroscepticism in the countries of central and eastern Europe (CEE).
