政治语言对欧洲一体化的公众舆论有什么影响？根据媒体分析、民意数据和对高级官员和活动家的140多次深入采访，Ece Ozlem Atikcan研究了六次欧盟公投投票：2005年西班牙、法国、荷兰和卢森堡关于欧洲宪法的投票;以及2008年和2009年爱尔兰关于里斯本条约的投票。在所有情况下，民意调查显示，投票的公众在竞选活动开始前都支持公投提案，但在这六个案例中，有三个案例中，这种最初积极的公众舆论消失了。为什么会出现这种情况？Atikcan表明，这个难题的关键在于政治运动，其中的论点策略可以至少暂时扭转公众舆论，足以影响公投结果。本书对竞选战略和欧盟沟通政策进行了批判性分析，将成为学者、政策制定者、政治家和未来竞选者必不可少的阅读。
What is the impact of political language upon public opinion towards European integration? Based upon media analysis, public opinion data and over 140 in-depth interviews with senior officials and campaigners, Ece Ozlem Atikcan examines six EU referendum votes: in Spain, France, the Netherlands and Luxembourg on the European Constitution in 2005; and in Ireland on the Lisbon Treaty in 2008 and 2009. In all instances, polls show that the voting public favored the referendum proposals before the campaigns began, yet this initially positive public opinion melted away in three of these six cases. Why did this occur? Atikcan demonstrates that the key to the puzzle lies in political campaigns, where argument strategies can, at least temporarily, reverse public opinion enough to affect referendum outcomes. Providing a critical analysis of campaign strategy and EU communication policy, this book will be essential reading for academics, policymakers, politicians and future campaigners.
