碩士 === 淡江大學 === 歐洲研究所碩士班 === 102 === “Euroscepticism” is now one of the most significant trend in Europe’s political thinking and public debate. In 2013, David Cameron, the Prime Minister of The Great Britain, declare that if Conservative Party wins the general election of 2015, he will hold a referendum in 2017 to let British people decide their future in European Union. He state clearly that British Government’s negotiate with EU will be much more frequently. Once Cameron fails to make a “good enough” deal with EU, he will turn his direction to stand for a “YES” vote. In this thesis, we focus on the case study of UK, the most “Eurosceptical” country in Europe. Otherwise, for the reason we tried to be more broad-minded, we also analysis EU’s member state and candidate state, how their political parties and public be “pro-European” or “Euroscptic”. Based on the research of mass relative documents and essays, This thesis will show how this trend germinated, mushroomed, and now become an unstoppable brainstorm wave.
