Abstract

The objective of this study is to present and explain Turkish public perceptions of the European Union and Europe. This study aims to give an overview of the changes in public opinion and then to evaluate it by considering data from different surveys. It adresses two questions. First, why and to what extent do people support the European Union, and what are the objections, worries and reservations about the EU? Secondly, how have these perceptions changed from 2002 to 2015? Consequently, it argues that public Euroscepticism Turkey develops as a response to the EU’s country-specific conditionality.
