随着最近欧洲联盟一体化进程的加快，对一体化进程的性质表示怀疑或直接批评的政党有所增加。文章的第一部分使用单一问题、抗议、既定政党和党内派系之间的四重区分，概述了欧盟成员国和挪威内部的欧洲怀疑主义。这揭示了欧洲怀疑主义的来源的多样性，无论是在意识形态上，还是在持欧洲怀疑主义立场的政党类型上，都是如此。文章的第二部分是试图通过对意识形态和政党在政党制度中的地位的考虑来描绘西欧政党制度中的欧洲怀疑主义。结论是，欧洲怀疑主义主要局限于其政党制度外围的政党，并经常被用作区分这些政党与只可能通过派别表达欧洲怀疑主义的较老牌政党的问题。因此，基于政党的欧洲怀疑主义在很大程度上取决于国内背景因素，也是绘制国内新兴政治格局的有用问题。
With the recent acceleration of the integration process of the European Union there has been a rise in political parties expressing either scepticism or outright criticism of the nature of the integration process. Using a four-fold differentiation between single issue, protest, established parties and factions within parties, the first part of the article presents an overview of Euroscepticism within EU member states and Norway. This reveals the diversity of sources of Euroscepticism both in ideology and in the types of parties that are Eurosceptical but with a preponderance of protest parties taking Eurosceptical positions. The second part of the article is an attempt to map Euroscepticism in West European party systems through a consideration of ideology and party position in the party system. The conclusions are that Euroscepticism is mainly limited to parties on the periphery of their party system and is often there used as an issue that differentiates those parties from the more established parties which are only likely to express Euroscepticism through factions. Party based Euroscepticism is therefore both largely dependent on domestic contextual factors and a useful issue to map emergent domestic political constellations.
