学术界越来越多地认识到公众态度对制定欧盟共同外交和安全政策的重要性。经济制裁成为CFSP的核心工具之一。然而，尽管制裁已成为欧盟外交政策工具箱中的一种流行工具，但公众对制裁的态度仍有待深入研究。本文以制裁俄罗斯为例，解释了公众对欧盟制裁的支持。它着眼于地缘政治态度、经济动机和观念因素，以解释公众对制裁的支持程度的差异。结论表明，地缘政治因素是最重要的，而经济因素影响很小。欧洲怀疑主义和反美主义在解释个人层面支持制裁方面发挥了重要作用。
Scholarship has increasingly acknowledged the importance of public attitudes for shaping the European Union's Common Foreign and Security Policy. Economic sanctions emerged as one of CFSP's central tools. Yet despite the emergence of sanctions as a popular instrument in the EU foreign policy toolbox, public attitudes towards sanctions are yet to be studied in depth. This article explains public support for EU sanctions, using the empirical example of sanctions against Russia. It looks at geopolitical attitudes, economic motivations and ideational factors to explain the variation in public support for sanctions. The conclusion suggests that geopolitical factors are the most important, and that economic factors matter very little. Euroscepticism and anti-Americanism play an important role in explaining the support for sanctions at the individual level.
