Abstract

This chapter is the first attempt made in this book to empirically re-embed the study of contemporary models of citizenship in Europe in the broader field of citizenship studies, using secondary analysis of Eurobarometer data (EB 89.1 2018). The chapter demonstrates current national and European Union (EU) attitudes along the key dimensions of citizenship—identity, rights and participation—and draws out the similarities and differences between them on the basis of mobility experiences. Controls for migration experiences and attitudes as well as socio-economic factors, especially age and education level, are then used to explain some of the emerging disparities in citizens’ national and EU-level attitudes.
