In sum, we need to revisit the commonly-held distinction between ‘losers’ (poor) and ‘winners’ (rich) of globalisation, which conceals a third type of region in which institutional distrust is more pronounced.

Sofia Vasilopoulou @sofiavasilopoulou.bsky.social · Oct 12

EU trust is likely to be higher among poorer and middle-income European regions that are experiencing growth compared to rich regions that are experiencing growth.

Sofia Vasilopoulou @sofiavasilopoulou.bsky.social · Oct 12

Larger regional economic growth is associated with higher levels of trust in the EU.

Sofia Vasilopoulou @sofiavasilopoulou.bsky.social · Oct 12

Using Eurobarometer data, we show that that the relationship between regional inequality and EU trust is not linear. Poor and rich European regions tend to trust the EU more compared to middle-income European regions.
