INTRODUCTION

The population in the European Union Member States is becoming increasingly diverse as

a result of people moving across borders. More and more Europeans have connections

not just with the country they live in.

Against the background of European cohesion within a wider EU and of international

migration patterns, a special interest emerged in 'New Europeans': people who live in the

EU and have connections with more countries than just the country where they live

(whether this is another Member State, a European country outside the EU, or a non-

European country). Connectedness is a broad, rich concept; it can take several forms,

objective or subjective.

In this report we use the term 'New Europeans' to contrast them with 'Old Europeans':

the latter are EU citizens who have no special connection with any country other than

their own. Of course, the terms 'New and Old Europeans' as used in this report have

nothing to do with 'old' and 'new' Member States (i.e. those that joined the EU since

2004).

The cross-border connectedness (where it exists) is multifaceted and therefore we should

not reduce it into a yes-or-no issue. The challenge is to find ways to study these varying

degrees of connectedness, while taking into account the fact that this may involve

diverse and complex connections.

The Directorate General of Employment, Social Affairs and Equal Opportunities of the

European Commission has commissioned this Eurobarometer survey to gain insight into

peoples’ connectedness to other countries. The challenge in this research was to identify

these 'New Europeans': who are they, where can we find them? They tend to be hidden

in the existing data sources and include children of migrants, mixed couples,

international students, retirement migrants and expats.

However, the Eurobarometer is an opinion survey and despite the substantial sample of

around 27,500 respondents per wave, it is not a census and therefore not suitable for

demographic statistical purposes. In this respect any opinion survey has its limitations. A

brief analysis of the nationality and the mother tongue of the respondents may illustrate

this limitation.

The proportion of respondents in this survey who hold a nationality other than that of the

country where they live (dual or single nationality) varies from low (4% to 8% in eight

countries) to extremely low (1% to 3% in thirteen countries) or close to zero (in five

countries, all new Member States1). The only exception is Luxembourg, where 34% of

1 Countries that have joined the EU since 2004.

the respondents hold a non-Luxembourg nationality (or another nationality in addition to

Luxembourg citizenship).

Accordingly, we examined the mother tongue of those surveyed. In all 27 EU Member

States, there are respondents with a mother tongue other than the official national

language(s) of the country they live in. Again, these proportions vary from extremely low

(1% to 3% in six countries) or low (4% to 7% in nine countries) to noticeable (8% to

17% in ten countries) or substantial, though this is only the case in two countries (26%

in Luxembourg and 29% in Latvia).

In short, the examination of the proportion of respondents who hold a nationality and/or

speak a mother tongue other than that of their country of residence reveals that these

groups are small, and can therefore yield only a limited picture of the cross-border

connectedness of people living in the EU. A further limitation arises from the target

population of the Eurobarometer: European citizens aged fifteen years or older. This

means that it does not involve younger citizens, nor does it include residents without EU

citizenship. Nevertheless, in spite of these limitations, the survey provides reliable

indications of the diverse population in Europe and of the strength of their connectedness

across the borders of the country in which they live.

Building analytical variables:

Two key analytical variables were constructed in order to enrich the analysis, and

especially to see how far the type of connection with other countries may influence

respondents’ opinions and attitudes on the different issues tackled in the survey. The first

variable reflects respondents’ ancestry or roots in other countries and the second their

openness to other countries. Using these indices, three groups of respondents can be

distinguished:

'New Europeans by ancestry'

They have a migrant background, that is, at least one parent or grandparent

originates from a country other than the interviewee’s country of residence and

not all of their four grandparents held citizenship of this country at birth (15% of

the sample).

'New European by openness'

These are people who developed strong ties to a country other than their country

of residence. This can be so for four different reasons: they have worked or

studied in another country for some time, or have a partner from another country,

or they may own property abroad (20% of the sample).

SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 346 NEW EUROPEANS

'Old Europeans'

Old Europeans have roots only in the country where their parents and

grandparents were born. Moreover, when their grandparents were born, all four

were citizens of the country where the respondent was interviewed. They are

Europeans citizens as a consequence of their country being or becoming a

Member State of the EU. Moreover, they have no links with other countries, in the

sense that they have neither worked nor studied in another country, they have

never lived with a partner from another country, and they do not own property

abroad (64% of the sample).

In this report, we compare the answers from respondents who are 'New Europeans by

openness' from those who are not in this category: we will name the latter 'respondents

not open to other countries'.

Similarly, we compare the answers from respondents who are 'New Europeans by

ancestry' from those who are not in this category: we will name the latter 'respondents

without foreign descent'.

Note that the two groups of 'New Europeans' (by ancestry and by openness) partly

overlap. A respondent with ancestral roots in another country may also, for example,

have property in that other country, or may have studied there. Nevertheless, in this

report, answers from each of the three groups – 'New Europeans by ancestry', 'New

Europeans by openness' and 'Old Europeans' will be separately analysed as a whole, in

order to have a clear view of the possible different influences of ‘active’ openness (as

defined by choices) on the one hand and ‘passive’ ancestry (as defined by facts) on the

other.

If we consider only the exclusive groups, we then have four categories of respondents:

'New Europeans by openness alone' (11% of the sample), 'New Europeans by ancestry

alone' (8% of the sample), 'Old Europeans' (64% of the sample), and a group of

unclassifiable respondents who didn’t answer some questions (don’t know) or presenting

mixed characteristics (for instance, being 'New Europeans' by openness and by ancestry).

This last group represents 17% of the total sample. In this report, answers of those who

are 'New Europeans by ancestry alone' or 'New Europeans by openness alone', are also

analysed.

Four different types of connectedness:

Cross-country connectedness is, as mentioned above, a broad concept. For deeper

analysis of and insight into European connectedness, the following four different types

will be identified in this report.

Family background

Respondents’ place of birth and that of their parents and grandparents,

supplemented with the citizenship of their grandparents at birth.

Personal links

Respondents’ personal relationships with other people who live abroad or come

from abroad: close friends, brothers, sisters, children, parents and/or a partner

they live or have lived with.

Personal experience

Respondents’ own experience of living in another country in the past because of

work, education or owning property.

Socio-cultural links

This can take various forms, such as a preference for foreign cuisine, an interest

in news, cultural life or sports of another country, spending leisure time abroad or

having foreign language skills.

This report is divided into four parts. The first part discusses the four types of

connectedness mentioned above. The second part examines respondents’ plans to move

to another country and how this relates to issues of ancestry and openness. The third

part focuses on respondents’ attachment to these other countries as compared with the

country where they live and on respondents’ feelings of belonging to a group. Reasons

for the attachment and different geographical levels of attachment are discussed, as well

as reasons for belonging to a group. The fourth and final part of this report deals with the

determinants and elements of national and European identity.

*****

The findings of this survey are analysed firstly at EU level and then country-by-country.

Socio-demographic variables such as respondents’ gender, age, education and

occupation, are used to provide additional analysis. In addition, we use the variables

described above to distinguish between different types of Europeans (New-by-openness,

New-by-ancestry and Old) for further analysis.

The survey was commissioned by the European Commission’s Directorate General (DG)

for Employment, Social Affairs and Equal Opportunities and coordinated by the

Directorate-General for Communication. It was carried out by TNS Opinion & Social

network between 12 March and 1 April 2010. The methodology used is that of

Eurobarometer surveys as carried out by European Commission’s Directorate-General for

Communication (‘Public Opinion and Speechwriting’ unit). A technical note on the manner

in which interviews were conducted by the Institutes within the TNS Opinion & Social

network is attached as an annex to this report. This note indicates the interview methods

and the confidence intervals.

We would like to take the opportunity to thank all the respondents across the European

Union who gave their time to take part in this survey.

Without their active participation, this study would simply not have been possible.

Executive Summary

Different types of connectedness to other countries

Foreign ancestry is the most obvious type of connectedness to another country,

but is not very common; more than 85% of Europeans were themselves born, or

have parents or grandparents who were born in their country of residence.

Similarly, eight out of ten Europeans have all four grandparents born as citizens of

their country of residence.

Personal relationships with people from or in other countries are widespread.

Four in ten Europeans have close friends living in another country; more than a

quarter have close friends who came from abroad and/or close relatives –

brothers, sisters, children, parents – who live abroad.

Personal experiences abroad are less widespread but significant. Almost one in

eight Europeans have worked abroad, one in twelve studied abroad, and one in

ten stayed abroad for three consecutive months or longer for other reasons.

Socio-cultural links with other countries are widespread. More than a third of

Europeans regularly eat food typical of another country, follow news, cultural life

or sports from another country, are fluent in at least one foreign language, or

regularly spend holidays or weekends abroad, that is, in a country other than the

country of residence.

Expecting to emigrate within ten years

More than one in ten Europeans envisage to move to another country within the

next ten years, half of them to another EU Member State.

New Europeans are more likely to move abroad, particularly 'New Europeans by

openness': one in five compared to only one in twenty 'Old Europeans'.

Feelings of attachment and belonging

Around one in two Europeans feel an attachment to at least one country other

than their country of residence. 'New Europeans' are far more likely to feel

attached to another country than their country of residence than 'Old Europeans'.

This attachment to a specific country other than their country of residence seems

to reflect historical-cultural similarities (language) or mere geographical proximity.

The top three reasons for attachment to another country are: regularly spending

holidays and weekends there, followed by having close relatives there (both in

particular for 'New Europeans by ancestry'), and having close friends who live

there (especially for 'New Europeans by openness').

Europeans’ attachment to their own country (of residence) is far stronger than

that to their favoured other countries. This is true even for New Europeans.

SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 346 NEW EUROPEANS

10

Turning to feelings of belonging to a group, seven in ten Europeans feel they

belong to a majority group and almost one in ten feel they belong to a minority

group. When it comes to how Europeans feel they are perceived by others, their

answers are comparable. 'New Europeans by ancestry' are more likely to feel

belonging to a minority group.

Identity

For Europeans, the most important element of national identity is to be born in

their country (though less so for 'New Europeans').

'New Europeans by openness alone' most often mention the sharing of cultural

traditions and feeling national as important aspects of national identity, whereas

'New Europeans by ancestry alone' think so of mastering the national language of

their country of residence.

The leading elements of European identity are clearly the euro and democratic

values. Six in ten Europeans say that being European is important to them, the

same as in spring 2009.

There are no significant differences between 'Old and New Europeans' as regards

European identity, the only exception being that 'New Europeans' - by openness

and by ancestry - consider democratic values to be more important than 'Old

Europeans' do.

1. 'NEW EUROPEANS' IN THE EU: DIFFERENT

TYPES OF CONNECTEDNESS WITH OTHER

COUNTRIES

People can have connectedness to countries other than the country where they live

through various links. Connectedness can involve subjective and emotional reasons as

well as more objective matters, such as education or work. Therefore, connectedness is

measured in different ways in the survey reported here. Respondents’ family ties abroad

are analyzed first, followed by other personal links, their personal experiences in other

countries and, finally, by socio-cultural links.

1.1. Connectedness through family background

Respondents were asked about the places of birth of themselves, their parents and their

grandparents: whether they were born in the country where they live, another EU

country, another non-EU country in Europe or another country outside Europe2.

More than nine out of ten Europeans were born in the country of interview, and eight out

of ten have all four grandparents born with the citizenship of the country of interview.

This means that connection to other countries through family background applies to only

small proportions of Europeans.

Country-by-country analysis shows that Luxembourg stands out clearly as the country

with the highest number of respondents who have parents or grandparents born in

another country, mainly in other EU Member States. Austria, Germany, France and the

UK follow with the same pattern. The UK, however, has more respondents with

grandparents born outside Europe (mostly in Asia). Two Baltic States, Latvia and Estonia,

have the highest number of respondents with parents or grandparents born in a

European country that is not a EU Member State (most likely Russia) or outside Europe.

Socio-demographic analysis reveals a general pattern as regards age, education and

urbanisation: the younger the respondents, the more likely they are to have foreign roots.

Similarly, those who are highly educated and those who live in large towns are more

likely to be of foreign descent.

13

1.1.1. Place of birth of respondents

The most obvious type of connection a person can have with another country is a priori

by being born in another country. The vast majority of respondents (93%) are born in

the country where they live3. A small minority (7%) of interviewees were born abroad:

4% said that they were born in another EU Member State4, and just 1% in a non-EU

country in Europe, including Turkey. Finally, a small percentage (2%) of respondents

were born outside Europe

Country-by-country analysis shows that the highest percentages of respondents who

were born in a country other than their country of residence are found in Luxembourg

(35%, by far the highest percentage), Germany (13%), Spain and the United Kingdom

(both 12%), Belgium and Ireland (both 11%). All these countries, except Spain, have

been EU Member States since 1973 or before. Countries with (almost) no respondents

born elsewhere are Bulgaria and Romania (each 0%), Hungary and Poland (each 1%),

Czech Republic and Slovakia (each 2%), Italy and Malta (each 3%).

Socio-demographic analysis reveals that some differences exist by age, education,

subjective urbanisation and occupation. Respondents in the 25-39 age category are more

likely to have been born abroad (10%) than those in the 15-24 group (6%) or the 40-54

(7%) and 55+ (5%) groups.

Those educated for longest, till age 20 or beyond, are more likely to have been born

abroad (10%) than those who finished school between 16 and 19 (7%) or at age 15 or

younger (6%). Inhabitants of large towns are more likely to have been born abroad

(11%) than those who live in a small or mid-sized town (6%) or a rural village (5%). As

to occupation, slightly higher percentages of respondents who were born abroad are

found among manual workers and the unemployed (each 10%).

or New Zealand; Another country outside Europe

In addition, it is interesting to identify those with a migrant background. For that purpose,

respondents were asked to indicate where their parents and grandparents were born.

1.1.2. Place of birth of respondents’ parents

Like the proportion of respondents born in another country, the proportion of

respondents of foreign origin through their parents is also small. About one in ten

respondents have at least one parent who was born in a country other than the

respondent’s country of residence. 5% of respondents’ had parents who were born in

another EU Member State5and 2% in a non-EU country in Europe, including Turkey

(these results apply to both fathers and mothers). In addition, 3% of respondents’

mothers and 4% of their fathers were born in a country outside Europe.

Country-by-country analysis reveals that again Luxembourg stands out, with almost

half of respondents having a mother (48%) and/or father (44%) born in another country.

Other countries with relatively high numbers of respondents with at least one parent born

abroad are Germany (18% and 19% for mothers and fathers respectively), the United

Kingdom (16% each), Latvia (16% and 17%), Austria (15% each), Belgium (15% and

17%) and Estonia (15% and 16%).

Countries in which the fewest respondents have a parent born abroad are Romania (1%

both for mothers and fathers), Bulgaria (2% and 1% respectively), Italy (2% both),

Poland (2% and 3%) and Hungary (both 3%).

Socio-demographic analysis reveals that age, education and subjective urbanisation

have an influence on the results. The 25-39 age cohort yields the highest proportions of

mothers and fathers (13% both) born abroad compared to the 8% and 7% for the oldest

respondents, aged 55 and over. Those who were educated up to or beyond age 20 are

more likely to have a mother (13%) or father (14%) born in another country than

respondents who had left school at 15 (8% for mothers and 9% for fathers). As for

urbanisation, those living in large towns are more likely to have foreign mothers (15%)

or fathers (17%) than rural dwellers (7% each for mothers and fathers).

1.1.3. Place of birth of respondents’ grandparents

12% of respondents have their grandfather on their father’s side that was born abroad.

The same proportion of Europeans have their grandfather on their mother’s side that was

born abroad. A closer look at the places of birth of both paternal and maternal

grandfathers shows that 7% were born in another EU Member State, 2% in a non-EU

country in Europe – including Turkey – and 3% outside Europe. Figures for maternal

grandmothers are identical. Paternal grandmothers, however, show a comparable but

slightly different pattern; compared to the three other grandparents (paternal

grandfather, maternal grandfather and maternal grandmother), fewer were born in

another EU Member State (6%) and more were born outside Europe (4%).

Country-by-country analysis reveals that the largest proportions of respondents with

all four grandparents born abroad are found in Luxembourg (39%), Slovenia (15%), the

United Kingdom (12%), Austria (11%), Belgium (11%), Germany (11%) and Latvia

(10%). The smallest proportions of interviewees with all four grandparents born abroad

are found in Romania, Bulgaria and Malta (all 1%), Italy, Portugal, Hungary and Finland

(all 2%).

For each of the four types of grandparent, we observe the same pattern: Luxembourg

stands out (around half for each grandparents).

In Luxembourg, the high frequency of foreign grandparents seems mainly to be the

result of immigration from France and Portugal6. In Austria and two of the Baltic States -

Latvia and Estonia - historical reasons may play a role: these countries experienced

border changes in the course of three generations. In Austria, the majority of

respondents’ ‘foreign’ grandparents were born in a current EU Member State, probably

Germany. In the two Baltic States, they were born in a non-EU European country,

probably Russia.

Socio-demographic analysis yielded a similar pattern for all four types of

grandparents by age, education and subjective urbanisation. The likelihood that a

respondent has a grandparent born abroad is higher if the respondent is younger (14%

to 16% of those aged 15-24 compared to 9% of those aged 55+), more highly educated

(15% of those who studied until the age of 20 or beyond compared to 9-10% of those

who left school at 15 or before), and lives in a larger town (18% of those who inhabit a

large town compared to 9% of those who live in a rural village – figures are for all four

grandparents).

6 In our survey, 12% of the respondents interviewed in Luxembourg have Luxembourg citizenship, 7% French citizenship (Q1). See also: http://epp.eurostat.ec.europa.eu/cache/ITY_OFFPUB/KS-SF-08-098/EN/KS-SF-08-098-EN.PDF.

1.1.4. Citizenship of respondents’ grandparents

To have a clearer picture of respondents’ ancestry, interviewees were asked about the

citizenship of their grandparents7. This was asked to provide more certainty about the

origin of respondents’ families. It is possible that grandparents who were born in the

respondent’s country of residence may have held different citizenship at birth.

A large majority (79%) of those surveyed have four grandparents who were all born

citizens of the respondent’s country of residence. Twelve percent of respondents say that

not all their four grandparents were born with that citizenship. 4% have three such

grandparents, 6% have two such grandparents and 2% have just one such grandparent.

In total, 29% of Europeans have at least one grandparent who was born a citizen of a

country other than the respondent’s country of residence.

A comparison of grandparents born in respondent’s country of residence with the

grandparents born as citizen from the respondent’s country of residence shows that there

are only small differences between those who are ‘foreign by citizenship at birth’ and

those who are ‘foreign by place of birth’.

7 QB5 Could you please tell me how many of your 4 grandparents were born as a citizen of (OUR COUNTRY)?

I am now going to ask you some questions about where you and your family were born.

Further analysis confirms the strong relationship between the percentage of grandparents

being ‘foreign by citizenship at birth’ and the percentage of grandparents being ‘foreign

by place of birth’. Most (79%) of the respondents with all four grandparents born in

another country also have all four grandparents who were ‘foreign by citizenship at birth’

and almost all (95%) of the respondents with no grandparents born abroad also have no

grandparents who were ‘foreign by citizenship at birth’.

Country-by-country analysis shows that the largest numbers of respondents with at

least one grandparent born with citizenship other than that of the respondent’s country

of residence are found in Luxembourg (61%), Latvia (40%), Austria (32%), Estonia

(31%) and France (28%). In other words, these are the countries with most interviewees

who have a migrant background. The lowest numbers were found in Italy (5%), Romania

(6%), Hungary (8%), Malta (9%) and Cyprus (10%).

SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 346 NEW EUROPEANS

23

Socio-demographic analysis reveals that there are slight differences depending on the

age and the level of education of the respondents. The likelihood that all four of a

respondent’s grandparents are nationals of the respondent’s country of residence

increases with age (e.g. 74% of those aged 15-24 compared to 83% of the 55+ group).

Less educated respondents are slightly more likely than those with higher education to

have four grandparents who are nationals of their country of residence: a large majority

(84%) of those who left school by age of 15 compared with 78% of those who ended

education between the age of 16 and 19 and 77% of those who studied until 20 or

beyond.

Furthermore, 60% of 'New Europeans by openness' have four grandparents with the

nationality of the respondent’s country of residence. A much higher proportion - 84% - of

those who are 'not open to other countries' have grandparents who all hold this

citizenship. Therefore, openness might in part be the result of ancestry.

1.2. Personal links with other countries

The previous section dealt with respondents’ origin by birth, descent and ancestry as the

first and most obvious type of connectedness respondents may have to other countries:

connection as a given fact in respondents’ life. Conversely, this and the following sections

will consider other types of cross-border connection, those that are based on

respondents’ own choices. Respondents’ personal experiences abroad and their socio-

cultural interest in other countries will be covered in more detail in the following sections.

First, this section starts with discussing connection through respondents’ close

relationships.

Connections to other countries can be studied by considering respondents’ close personal

relationships with people – family and friends – who live or come from abroad. To get a

picture of these relationships, respondents were asked about their close friends, close

relatives and partners8.

SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 346 NEW EUROPEANS

25

A substantial proportion of respondents have at least one of four types of ‘foreign’

personal relationships as defined by this question. Having close friends living in another

country is the most common of these (40% of respondents), followed by having close

friends who moved from abroad to the country where the respondent lives (29%). In

addition, more than one-quarter (27%) of those surveyed have close relatives (brothers,

sisters, children, parents) who live in another country. Living with a partner of a different

nationality is mentioned by a smaller proportion of respondents (8%) than the other

three types of close personal relationship with people who live or come from abroad.

Country-by-country analysis shows the following general pattern: Luxembourg – a

country with a large proportion of respondents of foreign descent – stands out for all four

types of personal relationship, with respondents having close friends living abroad (72%),

or who came from abroad (69%), close relatives living abroad (60%) or a partner with a

different nationality (32%). Ireland has also a high percentage of respondents with close

relationships abroad, i.e. friends (68%) and/or relatives (59%), and also a large

percentage of respondents with friends who came from abroad (42%). Sweden is also

noticeable in this respect, with large numbers of respondents having close friends abroad

(56%) or having close relationships with ‘foreigners’ within their own country, i.e. friends

who came from abroad (57%) and/or who live(d) with a partner of a different nationality

(17%). The Baltic States stand out for the large numbers of respondents with close

friends and close relatives who live abroad: Lithuania (59% and 47% respectively),

Latvia (61% and 43%) and Estonia (53% and 35%). The Mediterranean islands show the

same pattern: Malta (53% and 66% respectively) and Cyprus (57% and 55%).

27

Socio-demographic analysis reveals the following general pattern. Age, education and

subjective urbanisation and occupation appear to affect respondents’ personal links with

other countries: friends who live abroad, friends who came from abroad, close relatives

abroad and a partner of a different citizenship.

Gender is relevant only with respect to friends: slightly more men than women have

friends abroad or who came from abroad. Age is important as respondents aged 25-39

more frequently have friends who live or came from abroad or a partner of a different

citizenship than the younger respondents aged 15-24 and the older age cohorts of 40-54

and of 55+. There is little variation in the percentages of respondents having close

relatives abroad in different age groups. Education is significant with respect to all four

types of personal links: the longer their education, the more likely respondents are to

have each of the four personal relationship types. Urbanisation also varies significantly

with all four types of personal link, with those who live in cities tending to have personal

relationships more often than those who live in small towns and villages. Occupation is

relevant, with managers reportedly far more often having friends who live or came from

abroad or a partner of a different nationality. There is no apparent relationship between

occupation and having close relatives abroad.

Analysis of 'New Europeans' shows that 'New Europeans by ancestry' far more

frequently have at least one of the personal relationships with others abroad or from

abroad than respondents who are not of foreign descent. Similarly, 'New Europeans by

openness' significantly more often have close friends and close relatives living in other

countries or friends who came from abroad.

As discussed in the introduction of this report, the two groups of 'New Europeans' (by

ancestry and by openness) partly overlap. A respondent with ancestral roots in another

country may, for example, also have property in that other country, or may have studied

there. A comparison between the non-overlapping groups (i.e. 'New Europeans by

ancestry alone', 'New Europeans by openness alone' and 'Old Europeans') reveals a clear

trend. 'New Europeans by openness alone' have the highest percentage of personal

relationships, followed by 'New Europeans by ancestry alone'. Having close relatives

abroad, unsurprisingly, is reported slightly more often by 'New Europeans by ancestry

alone'.

1.2.1. Close friends living abroad

Four out of every ten Europeans have a close friend abroad: it is the most widespread

type of personal link with other countries.

Country-by-country analysis shows some differences in this respect. The countries

with outstanding numbers of respondents with close friends abroad are again

Luxembourg (72%) and Ireland (68%). They are followed by the countries where more

than half of the interviewees have close friends abroad: Latvia (61%), Lithuania (59%),

Cyprus (57%), Sweden (56%), Estonia and Malta (both 53%), Slovakia (52%), Bulgaria

and the Netherlands (51% each). The countries with the smallest number of reported

close friendships abroad are Italy (23%) and Hungary (25%)

Socio-demographic analysis reveals several differences, not least in terms of

education, where the best-educated report foreign friendships far more frequently than

those with lower levels of education; 57% of those who stayed in full-time education until

the age of 20 have close friends abroad compared to 25% of those who left school at 15.

Age is significant as younger age cohorts report foreign friendships far more frequently

than older Europeans: 48% of those aged 25-39 compared to 32% of those aged 55+.

Occupation appears significant as managers (57%) are the most likely to have foreign

friendships and those who are retired (30%) the least. Subjective urbanisation is of

importance, with those who live in a city (47%) more likely to have close friends abroad

than those who live in a small town (36%) or in a village (38%). Finally, the gender has

a limited impact with slightly more men (41%) than women (38%) having close friends

abroad.

Analysis of 'New Europeans' shows that 'New Europeans by openness' far more

frequently (75%) have close friends living in another country than those 'not open to

other countries' (31%). Remarkably, 'New Europeans by ancestry' less often have close

friends abroad (65%), but still far more often than those 'without foreign descent' (34%).

Analysis of the non-overlapping groups shows that 'New Europeans by openness alone'

(67%) are the most likely to have close friends who live abroad, significantly more even

than 'New Europeans by ancestry alone' (45%) and far more than 'Old Europeans' (28%).

1.2.2. Friends who come from abroad

Of all European interviewees, 29% are close friends with a person who lives in the same

country as the interviewee, but who moved there from another country.

Country-by-country analysis reveals that Luxembourg (69%) and Sweden (57%)

have the largest proportion of respondents with friends from abroad, followed at some

distance by Denmark, Ireland and Slovenia (all 42%). The countries with the lowest

percentage of respondents with foreign friends are Bulgaria (10%), Poland (11%),

Romania (14%) and Lithuania (15%).

Socio-demographic analysis shows several significant differences. Education appears

to be of great relevance as the longer respondents are educated, the more likely it is that

they have friends who moved from abroad. Indeed, 41% of those who studied until they

were 20 have such foreign friends, against 19% of those who left school at 15. A strong

difference is also noted for age for the younger cohorts, 15-24 and 25-39 (36% each),

which are more likely to have a foreign friend than respondents aged 40-54 (31%) or

those aged 55+ (20%). Turning to occupation, managers (39%) and students (41%)

report having friends who moved from abroad far more frequently than those who are

retired (18%).

30

Subjective urbanisation is of significance, respondents living in cities (38%) more often

have foreign friends than those living in a small or middle sized town (25%) or rural

dwellers (27%). Gender is important as more men (31%) than women (27%) have

foreign friends.

Analysis of 'New Europeans' reveals that 'New Europeans by openness' far more

frequently (59%) have close friends who moved from another country than those 'not

open to other countries' (21%). Accordingly, 'New Europeans by ancestry' report having

close friends who came from abroad (56%) more often than those 'without foreign

descent' (23%). When comparing only the non-overlapping groups, 'New Europeans by

openness alone' more often have friends who came from abroad (47%) than 'New

Europeans by ancestry alone' (37%). 'Old Europeans' are the least likely to have friends

abroad (19%).

1.2.3. Close relatives living abroad

Respondents were also asked if they have close family relationships, i.e. brothers, sisters,

children or parents, living in another country. As noticed above, more than one in four

European interviewees have at least one close relative living abroad (see section 1.1).

Country-by-country analysis shows that the following countries have the highest

numbers of respondents with close relatives living abroad: Malta (66%), Luxembourg

(60%), Ireland (59%), Cyprus (55%), Lithuania (47%) and Portugal (45%). In contrast,

the countries with the lowest percentage of respondents who have close relatives living

abroad are Italy (12%), the Czech Republic (15%) and Hungary (17%), in other words

countries where only few respondents or their parents have roots abroad.

Socio-demographic analysis reveals that education and subjective urbanisation play a

role. Those who studied until 20 or longer (33%) have relatives living abroad more

frequently than those who finished their education between 16 and 19 (26%) or who left

school at 15 or younger (24%). Similarly, respondents living in a city (32%) are more

likely to have close relatives abroad than those living in a small or middle-sized town

(25%) or a village (26%).

SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 346 NEW EUROPEANS

31

Analysis of 'New Europeans' shows that more than half (53%) of the 'New Europeans

by openness' have close relatives living abroad, which is more than the percentage of

respondents 'not open to other countries' (21%). Here again, we see that openness

might be partly the result of ancestry. The same pattern is found for 'New Europeans by

ancestry' of whom more than half (57%) have close relatives living abroad compared to

21% of those 'without foreign descent'. Analysis of the non-overlapping groups reveals

that 'New Europeans by openness alone' (36%) and 'New Europeans by ancestry alone'

(38%) are both more likely to have close relatives who live abroad than 'Old Europeans'

(18%).

1.2.4. Partner of a different nationality

Mixed marriage or cohabitation can be seen as an important measure of openness to

another country. Almost one in ten respondents (8%) live or had lived with a partner of a

different nationality.

Country-by-country analysis reveals that Luxembourg (32%) stands out with the

largest number of respondents who live or have lived with a partner of a different

nationality than their own, followed some way behind by Sweden (17%), while the

smallest numbers are found in Bulgaria (1%), Poland (2%), Slovakia (3%), Hungary (3%)

and the Czech Republic (3%?).

SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 346 NEW EUROPEANS

32

Socio-demographic analysis shows the influence of age and education on this

dimension. Respondents aged 25-39 (13%) live or have lived with a partner of a different

citizenship most frequently, compared with the younger respondents 15-24 (6%) and

also the older respondents, those aged 40-54 (9%) and those aged 55+ (5%).

Interviewees who finished education at the age of 20 or later (14%) more frequently

have a partner of a different nationality than those who finished their education between

the age of 16 and 19 (8%) or those who left school at the age of 15 (6%).

Further analysis reveals that there is a connection between having a foreign partner and

other characteristics of openness to other countries: 28% of those who have worked

abroad and 36% of those who have studied abroad have a partner of a different

nationality.

Analysis of 'New Europeans' shows that 'New Europeans by ancestry' more often live

or have lived with a partner of a different nationality than their own than those 'without

foreign descent' (41% compared to 8%). 'New Europeans by openness' are not analysed

in this respect since their group is defined – partly – by having a partner of a different

citizenship.

In short, one in four Europeans have close relatives living abroad, more than one in four

have close friends who came from another country, and one in twelve have or had a

partner of a different citizenship.

33

1.3. Personal experiences in other countries

The connectedness respondents may have with other countries could be due to past

experiences of living in those countries, for work and education, because they own

property there or for other reasons9. The vast majority of respondents, between 87%

and 96%, have not had such experiences abroad, at least not for a period longer than

three consecutive months. However, a minority of respondents have lived in another

country for work (13%), education (8%) or some other reason (10%). In addition, 3%

own real property abroad.

Country-by-country analysis of personal experiences abroad reveals the following

pattern. Luxembourg records the largest percentages for all four items: 27% of

respondents have spent at least three consecutive months abroad for work, 46% for

study and 34% for some other reason; 13% own property in another country. It is

followed at some distance by Ireland (27%, 15%, 18% and 4 % respectively) and

Sweden (23%, 16%, 20% and 2% respectively).

35

Socio-demographic analysis reveals the following general pattern regarding the

influence of age, education and urbanisation on three of these four items: working,

studying or staying for other reasons. Property ownership did not correlate with socio-

demographic characteristics.

Gender is of influence only with respect to work: more men than women have worked in

another country. Age is of influence in that the 25-39 age cohort reports higher

percentages of all experiences (excluding property ownership) than younger respondents

aged 15-24 and the older age groups (40-54 and of 55+). Education is highly significant

in this respect. Those who were educated until age 20 or later are more likely to have

had one of these personal experiences abroad (excluding property ownership) than those

with less education. Urbanisation carries some influence since interviewees who live in

large towns are more likely to have had personal experiences abroad (excluding property

ownership) than those who live in smaller towns or rural villages.

Analysis of 'New Europeans' shows that 'New Europeans by ancestry' tend to have

more personal experiences abroad, including property ownership, than those 'without

foreign descent'

36

1.3.1. Work experience

Country-by-country analysis shows that working abroad – including volunteering and

traineeships – for at least a period of three months was mentioned by more than a

quarter of the respondents in Ireland and in Luxembourg (each 27%), and somewhat

less, but still by a considerable number, in Sweden (23%) and Denmark (22%).

Countries where the fewest respondents had work experience abroad are the Czech

Republic (6%), Italy (7%), Romania (8%) and Hungary (9%).

Socio-demographic analysis reveals that gender, age, education, occupation and

urbanisation all have an impact. Men (16%) are more likely than women (10%) to have

worked in another country. Respondents aged 25-39 (17%) are far more likely to have

work experience abroad than those in the 15-24 age group (6%) or older respondents

aged 40-54 (14%) and 55+ (11%).

Respondents who were educated till the age of 20 or later (22%) are by far the most

likely to have work experience abroad, much more likely than those who finished school

between the ages of 16 and 19 (11%) or who left school at age 15 or earlier (9%).

Occupation is also relevant: managers (21%) and the self-employed (18%) are more

likely to have worked in another country than other white collar workers (11%).

SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 346 NEW EUROPEANS

37

Urbanisation has some slight influence; inhabitants of large towns (17%) are more likely

to have worked abroad than those living in smaller towns or rural villages (both 11%).

Analysis of 'New Europeans' shows that 'New Europeans by ancestry' are more likely to

have worked abroad than those 'without foreign descent' (29% compared to 9%).

1.3.2. Study experience

Country-by-country analysis reveals that Luxembourg (46%) is the country with by

far the largest proportion of respondents who have lived abroad for educational reasons,

i.e. to study for at least half an academic year abroad. It is followed by Cyprus (21%),

then at some distance by Sweden (16%), Ireland (15%), Spain (14%), the United

Kingdom (13%), Denmark and the Netherlands (both 12%), and Finland (10%). In

contrast, the lowest percentages are found in Romania (1%), Poland (2%), Bulgaria

(2%), Slovakia, Hungary, Lithuania, Latvia, and the Czech Republic (all 3%).

Socio-demographic analysis shows the same pattern with respect to age, education

and subjective urbanisation for educational experience abroad as for work experience.

Those aged 25-39 (12%) are more likely to have studied abroad than younger

respondents aged 15-24 (7%) or older respondents aged 40-54 (7%) and 55+ (5%).

Those who were educated until age 20 or later (16%) are much more likely to have

studied abroad than those who finished school between the age of 16 and 19 (4%) or

whose education ended at age 15 or earlier (6%). Urbanisation has an impact, as

inhabitants of large towns (12%) far more frequently have study experience abroad than

those who live in a smaller towns or rural village (both 6%).

Analysis of 'New Europeans' shows that 'New Europeans by ancestry' are more likely to

have studied abroad than those 'without foreign descent' (29% compared to 3%).

1.3.3. Other reasons for temporarily living abroad

Country-by-country analysis shows that respondents who had lived abroad for

reasons other than study or work for at least three consecutive months are most

numerous in Luxembourg (34%), followed at a distance by Sweden (20%) and Ireland

(18%). The lowest percentages of respondents who had lived abroad for some other

reason are recorded in the Czech Republic, Bulgaria (3% each), Poland, Hungary (4%),

Slovakia, Romania and Italy (5%).

Socio-demographic analysis shows that age and education are relevant. Respondents

aged 25-39 (14%) say that they have lived abroad for reasons other than study or work

more frequently than younger interviewees aged 15-24 (8%), or older respondents aged

40-54 (11%) and 55+ (9%). Respondents who were educated until age 20 or later (18%)

are much more likely to have lived abroad at some time in the past for reasons other

than study or work than those who finished school between the ages of 16 and 19 (9%)

or who left school at age 15 or earlier (7%).

(OUR COUNTRY)

Analysis of 'New Europeans' reveals, unsurprisingly, that 'New Europeans by ancestry'

are more likely to have lived in another country for reasons other than work or study

than those 'without foreign descent' (34% compared to 6%). Another striking result is

that 'New Europeans by openness' are far more likely to have lived in another country for

reasons other than study or work than those 'not open to other countries' (43%

compared to 2%).

When comparing only the non-overlapping groups, the analysis yields the following

percentages: 'New Europeans by openness alone', 29%; 'New Europeans by ancestry

alone', 6%; and 'Old Europeans' 2%.

1.3.4. Owning real property

Country-by-country analysis shows that having a personal link to another country

through property ownership (not timesharing) is reported mostly in Luxembourg (13%),

followed by Spain (7%) and Slovenia (6%). Owners of property abroad are found the

least frequently in Romania (0%), Slovakia, Poland, Malta, Hungary, Lithuania, Latvia,

the Czech Republic and Bulgaria (all 1%).

Socio-demographic analysis did not reveal any significant differences with respect to

owning property abroad.

'New Europeans by ancestry', unsurprisingly, are more likely to have real property in

another country than those 'without foreign descent' (13% compared to 1%).

SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 346 NEW EUROPEANS

40

To conclude, one in ten Europeans appear to have personal experience of another

country as a result of having stayed there for at least three consecutive months for work,

education or other reasons. This is a much smaller proportion than the one in four

Europeans who have connections with other countries through personal relationships,

which requires rather less purposeful effort on the part of respondents.

1.4. Socio-cultural links with other countries

The connections that people feel with countries other than that in which they live may be

related to socio-cultural links they have with that country. This can take various forms,

such as a preference for foreign cuisine, interest in news, cultural life or sports of another

country, spending leisure time abroad or having foreign language skills. In this section,

respondents were asked to indicate whether they had such links with other countries10.

More than one-third of the respondents regularly eat food at home which is typical of another

country (36%), regularly follow news, cultural life or sports from another country (34%) or

fluently speak at least one other language than that of the country where they live (34%).

Slightly more than one in five respondents (22%) regularly spend holidays or weekends in

one particular country other than where he or she lives.

Country-by-country analysis shows the following general pattern. Luxembourg and to

a lesser extent the Netherlands stand out for all four types of socio-cultural links with

other countries; they have among the largest numbers of interviewees who are fluent in

at least one other language than the language of the interview (96% and 76%

respectively), or who regularly eat food at home that is typical of another country (80%

and 81%), follow news, cultural life or sports from another country (84% and 68%), or

spend their holidays or weekends in one particular country other than their country of

residence (78% and 51%).

Other countries with high percentages of respondents with socio-cultural links to other

countries – though not in all four categories – are Malta for speaking another language

(86%) and following news, cultural life or sports from another country (81%), and

Denmark for speaking another language (77%) and interest in the national cuisine of

other countries (61%).

Furthermore, the Baltic States – Latvia (87%), Lithuania (76%) and Estonia (72%) –

stand out as all three of them rank highly in terms of the proportion of respondents

speaking another language.

Socio-demographic analysis reveals the following general pattern regarding the

influence of age, education, occupation, urbanisation and difficulties paying bills on all

four kinds of respondents’ socio-cultural links with other countries: food, information,

language and leisure time. Variations by gender only affect information and leisure time.

The general pattern outlined below will be explained in more detail in the following

sections which will address each socio-cultural link separately.

Gender differences only appear for information and leisure time, with men more likely

than women to regularly follow news, cultural events and sports of another country or

spend weekends or holidays in another country. Age is relevant as younger age cohorts

are more likely to have socio-cultural links to another country than the older age cohorts.

In particular the oldest respondents aged 55+ are less likely to have socio-cultural links

to other countries. Education is highly significant, with those who are more educated – i.e.

studied until the age of 20 or later – much more likely to have socio-cultural links with

other countries than those who are less educated, i.e. those who ended their education

between ages 16 to 19 and those who left school before the age of 16. Urbanisation

appears relevant as those living in large towns report socio-cultural links with other

countries more often than residents of smaller towns and villages. Occupation is relevant,

with managers clearly standing out as having the most frequent socio-cultural links with

other countries. Financial difficulties are relevant with those who almost never have

problems with paying their bills having noticeably more frequent socio-cultural links with

other countries than those who from time to time or most of the time have such

difficulties.

44

Analysis of 'New Europeans' reveals that 'New Europeans by ancestry' are far more

likely to have at least one of the socio-cultural links with other countries than those

'without foreign descent'. Similarly, as one would expect, 'New Europeans by openness'

report far more frequent socio-cultural links to other countries than those 'not open to

other countries'. When comparing only the non-overlapping groups there is a clear trend

for all four socio-cultural links, showing that 'New Europeans by openness alone' have the

highest percentages of cultural links, followed by 'New Europeans by ancestry alone'.

1.4.1. Food

Country-by-country analysis shows that two countries stand out in reporting food as a

socio-cultural link to another country. The highest percentages of respondents who

regularly eat food at home that is typical of other countries than their country of

residence are found in the Netherlands (81%) and Luxembourg (80%), followed at some

distance by the United Kingdom (66%) and Denmark (61%). The lowest percentages of

respondents interested in other national cuisines are found in Bulgaria (5%) and Italy

(8%).

Socio-demographic analysis shows that age, education, occupation, urbanisation and

financial situation are relevant. Older interviewees are much less fond of foreign cuisine

than younger age cohorts: those aged 55+ (25%) report eating food typical of another

country at home much less often than those aged 40-54 years (40%), 25-39 years (45%)

and 15-24 years (42%).

As the level of education increases, respondents are more likely to eat foreign food at

home; one in two (50%) of those who studied until the age of 20 regularly have a foreign

meal at home compared to one in five (21%) of those who left school at 15 or earlier.

Regarding occupation, managers (54%) stand out for their fondness for foreign food,

with retired respondents (24%) at the other extreme. Turning to urbanisation,

interviewees who live in cities (42%) tend to have food that is typical of another country

more often than those who live in a smaller town (35%) or village (34%). Interviewees

who almost never have problems paying their bills (40%) eat foreign food at home

significantly more often than those who do have such problems from time to time (32%)

or most of the time (28%).

Analysis of 'New Europeans' shows that 'New Europeans by ancestry' are twice as

likely to eat food at home that is typical of another country than those 'without foreign

descent' (62% compared to 31%). The comparison between 'New Europeans by

openness' and those 'not open to other countries' shows the same pattern (62% against

30%).

Analysis of the non-overlapping groups reveals that 'New Europeans by openness alone'

(54%) and 'New Europeans by ancestry alone' (50%) are both more likely to eat food

from another country at home than 'Old Europeans' (27%).

SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 346 NEW EUROPEANS

45

1.4.2. Follow news, cultural life and sports

Country-by-country analysis reveals that two countries stand out with a vast majority

of interviewees who regularly follow news, cultural life or sports of another country than

that in which they live: Luxembourg (84%) and Malta (81%) followed at some distance

by the Netherlands (68%) and Cyprus (59%). The lowest percentages of respondents

interested in news, cultural life or sports of another country are in Poland (17%),

Romania (20%) and Italy (21%).

Socio-demographic analysis shows that gender, age, education, occupation,

urbanisation and financial situation are all relevant.

Gender is highly significant as men (39%) are more likely to regularly follow news,

cultural life or sports from another country than women (30%). Older interviewees are

less interested in such information than the younger: those aged 55+ (30%) follow

foreign news, cultural life or sports less often than those aged 40-54 (36%), 25-39 (38%)

or 15-24 (35%).

The longer they were educated, the more likely respondents are to follow foreign news,

cultural life or sports: almost one in two (47%) of those who studied until they were 20

or later regularly do this, compared to one in four (25%) of those who left school by 15.

Turning to occupation, managers (47%) stand out for their interest foreign news, cultural

life or sports, compared to retired respondents (30%).

Furthermore, city-dwellers (38%) tend to follow foreign news, cultural life or sports more

often than those living in small towns (32%) or villages (34%). Interviewees who have

no difficulty paying their bills (38%) are more likely to be interested in information from

another country than those who are in bad financial situation most of the time (26%).

Analysis of 'New Europeans' shows that respondents 'New Europeans by ancestry' are

more likely to regularly follow news, cultural life or sports from another country than

those 'without a foreign descent' (53% against 31%). Likewise with 'New Europeans by

openness' compared with those 'not open to other countries' (58% against 28%).

Analysis of the non-overlapping groups reveals, remarkably, that 'New Europeans by

openness alone' (51%) are more likely to regularly follow news, cultural life or sports of

another country than 'New Europeans by ancestry alone' (37%). 'Old Europeans' show

the least interest in such information (27%).

46

1.4.3. Foreign language skills

One in three Europeans interviewed is fluent in at least one other language than the

language in which the interview took place. Having foreign language skills may be the

cause or the result of feeling connected to another country.

Country-by-country analysis reveals that in three countries almost all interviewees

speak at least one other language than the language of the interview: Luxembourg

(96%), Latvia (87%) and Malta (86%). Countries where somewhat fewer, but still a

substantial majority speak another language are Denmark (77%), Lithuania (76%), the

Netherlands (76%), Estonia (72%) and Sweden (70%). The countries with the lowest

numbers of respondents speaking foreign languages are Italy (18%), Ireland (18%) and

Hungary (19%).

Socio-demographic analysis reveals a number of variations with age, education,

occupation, urbanisation and financial situation.

Younger respondents are more likely to speak another language: almost one in two (46%)

of those aged 15 or older, compared to almost one in four (23%) of those aged 55 or

older. As the level of education increases, respondents are more likely to speak another

language: 15% of those who left school at 15 compared to 57% of those who studied

until the age of 20. As to occupation, again managers stand out with 56% of them

speaking another language fluently.

Turning to subjective urbanisation, inhabitants of cities (43%) tend to speak another

language more often than rural dwellers (31%). Finally, citizens without financial

problems (38%) are more likely to speak another language than those who report

difficulties in paying bills most of the time (26%).

Analysis of 'New Europeans' shows that 'New Europeans by ancestry' are much more

likely to speak another language than those 'without a foreign descent' (62% compared

to 28%). This is even more so for 'New Europeans by openness' compared to those 'not

open to other countries' (66% compared to 26%). The analysis of the non-overlapping

groups reveals that 'New Europeans by openness alone' (56%) far more frequently speak

another language than 'New Europeans by ancestry alone' (44%). As expected, 'Old

Europeans' are the least likely to speak another language (24%). Respondents were also

asked which languages other than their mother tongue they could speak well enough to

be able to hold a conversation11. The language which European respondents speak most

often - besides their mother tongue - is English. Almost one in three (31%) of the

interviewees (non native English speakers) can hold a conversation in English. Other

languages follow some way behind. Almost one in ten of European respondents can

speak German (9%) or French (8%) besides their mother tongue. Much rarer, but still

significant are Spanish (4%) and Russian (3%).

47

1.4.4. Holidays and weekends

Country-by-country analysis reveals that respondents who regularly spend their

holidays or weekends in one particular country other than their country of residence are

most numerous in Luxembourg (78%), the Netherlands (51%), Belgium (48%), Slovenia

(45%) and Austria (43%).

Countries with the smallest proportions of respondents that spend leisure time abroad on

a regular basis are Bulgaria (1%), Hungary (3%), Poland, Latvia, Greece (all 4%),

Romania (5%), Portugal (6%), Lithuania (8%) and Cyprus (9%).

Socio-demographic analysis of leisure time shows significant variation by gender, age,

education, occupation, urbanisation and financial situation. The pattern is similar to that

observed in the other items of that section on socio-cultural links with other countries12.

Analysis of 'New Europeans' shows that 'New Europeans by ancestry' are more likely

to spend holidays or weekends in another country than the country where they reside

than respondents 'without a foreign descent' (41% against 18%). There is a similar

picture for 'New Europeans by openness' compared with those 'not open to other

countries' (42% against 17%).

Analysis of non-overlapping groups shows that 'New Europeans by openness alone' (34%)

and to a lesser extent those 'by ancestry alone' (29%) are both more likely to spend

leisure time abroad than 'Old Europeans' (15%).

* * *

To summarize, the aim of this first part of the report was to evaluate to what extent and

in which ways Europeans are connected to countries other than their country of residence.

We saw that cross-border connections through personal relationships (close friends and

close relatives) are most widespread. Other types of connection (foreign descent,

personal experiences abroad and socio-cultural links with other countries) occur much

less often across the European Union.

Luxembourg stands out as having large proportions of respondents with all four types of

connection to other countries measured in this survey. Ireland and Sweden stand out in

terms of personal relationships and personal experience abroad and the Netherlands for

socio-cultural links with other countries.

Respondents in the 25-39 age group, those with the longest educations, and those who

live in large towns show the highest levels of cross-border connectedness of all four types.

In addition, the youngest group aged 15-24 show high proportions of socio-cultural links

to other countries and are more likely than average to have foreign grandparents.

2. PLANS TO MOVE TO ANOTHER COUNTRY

While the previous chapter dealt with Europeans’ connectedness with other countries

through their personal relationships and their own experiences in other countries, this

chapter focuses more on how respondents are likely to behave in the future as regards

settling in another country.

2.1. Inclination to emigrate within ten years

The interviewees were asked to estimate how likely they are to settle in another country

within ten years. Economic reasons can be important, e.g. migration for access to better

labour markets. It may also be considered that respondents’ enthusiasm for moving to

another country shows their openness to other countries. For a large majority of

Europeans (86%) it is probably not be the case: ‘not at all likely’ (66%) or ‘not very

likely’ (20%). A minority of 11%, however, think that they are ‘fairly’ or ‘very likely’ to

move to another country.

Country-by-country analysis reveals that respondents in the following countries are

the most likely to move abroad: Latvia (34%), Lithuania (24%), Luxembourg (20%),

Ireland (18%), Denmark and Sweden (each 17%).

Page 51: Full report New Europeans - MARCH FINAL · 'New Europeans by openness alone' (11% of the sample), 'New Europeans by ancestry alone' (8% of the sample), 'Old Europeans' (64% of the

SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 346 NEW EUROPEANS

49

The countries with the highest proportions of respondents saying it is 'not at all likely'

they will move abroad are the Czech Republic (80%), Italy (76%), Cyprus (75%) and

Hungary (74%).

The Czech Republic, Italy and Hungary are also among the countries that have the lowest

percentages of interviewees with personal experiences in another country (e.g. work,

study) and the lowest number of close relatives living abroad, which may deter them

from moving abroad. Cyprus is an exception here, ranking among the highest in those

respects, and respondents’ unwillingness to leave their island appears to have other

reasons.

SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 346 NEW EUROPEANS

50

Socio-demographic analysis reveals differences related to age, education and

occupational situation. The younger the respondents are, the more likely they are to

move abroad. More than a quarter (27%) of the respondents aged 15-24 expect to move

to another country within 10 years, followed by 15% of those aged 25-39 and 9% of

those aged 40-54. Only 3% of the oldest respondents aged 55 and over expect they may

move to another country. Respondents who stayed in full-time education up to age 20 or

beyond are more likely to move to another country than those who left school between

16-19, or at 15 or earlier (14%, 9% and 4% respectively). Last but not least,

respondents’ occupational situation appears to be of importance: those who are

unemployed (17%) or still studying (30%) are more inclined to move abroad compared

to those who are employed or have retired.

SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 346 NEW EUROPEANS

51

Analysis of 'New Europeans' shows that almost one-quarter of the 'New Europeans by

openness' are likely to move to another country to live there (24% against 8% of those

'not open to other countries'), similarly with the 'New Europeans by ancestry' (23%

compared to 8% of those 'without foreign descent').

Comparing non-overlapping groups, 'New Europeans by openness alone' are slightly

more likely to move abroad (19%) than those 'by ancestry alone' (15%). Both groups

are more likely to move abroad than 'Old Europeans' (6%), which confirms that 'New

Europeans' are somewhat more open to a Europe without internal borders than 'Old

Europeans'.

2.2. Countries of preference

Those respondents who are likely to move abroad were asked to which country that

would be13. Half of them (50%) would expect to move to another EU Member State while

7% mentioned another country in Europe (outside the EU). For more than a third (36%)

of the respondents who are likely to move abroad, their preferred country lies outside

Europe: the United States of America, Canada, Japan, Australia or New Zealand (22%).

The standard of living in these countries could explain this preference. Finally, a

significant number expect to move to some other country outside Europe (14%).

The country-by-country analysis reveals some differences, but these should be

interpreted with caution because of the smaller sample sizes, since this question was only

put to those who expect to move to another country.

13 QB9 And if you were to move, where would it be to?

Page 54: Full report New Europeans - MARCH FINAL · 'New Europeans by openness alone' (11% of the sample), 'New Europeans by ancestry alone' (8% of the sample), 'Old Europeans' (64% of the

SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 346 NEW EUROPEANS

52

Another EU Member State is the favoured destination for interviewees in Romania (81%),

Greece (78%) and Lithuania (74%). A country in Europe that is not a EU Member State is

mentioned most often in Italy (18%), Slovenia (17%) and Finland (14%). The United

States of America, Canada, Japan, Australia and New Zealand are the most popular for

respondents in the United Kingdom (37%) and Ireland (36%), maybe for language

reasons (except for Japan). Some other country outside Europe is favoured most in the

Netherlands (27%), Spain (22%) and France (21%).

Socio-demographic analysis reveals some interesting differences on the basis of the

socio-demographic profile of the interviewee, gender and age in particular. However, as

pointed out above, these differences should be interpreted cautiously because of small

sample sizes.

Of those who expect to move abroad, the youngest are the most likely to choose these

countries: 29% of those aged 15-24, followed by 22% of those aged 25-39, 17% of

those aged 40-54 and 11% of those aged 55 and over. All in all, for the younger

generation, the USA seems to exert a pull factor. It is also possible that language plays a

role in the attractiveness of the USA for the young generation of Europeans.

Analysis of 'New Europeans' shows that both types of 'New Europeans' are more likely

to move to another country outside Europe – other than the USA, Canada, Japan,

Australia or New Zealand – (20% for 'New Europeans by ancestry' and 18% for 'New

Europeans by openness') than those 'without a foreign descent' or 'not open to other

countries' (11% and 9% respectively).

3. ATTACHMENT AND FEELINGS OF BELONGING

People may feel attachment to several places and have feelings of belonging to various

groups. This section firstly deals with respondents’ attachment to places at various

geographical levels: other countries, their own country, their region, and their city, town

or village. Secondly, respondents’ feelings of belonging to specific groups will be

examined. The issue of particular interest in this section is to explore the differences that

might exist between 'Old and New Europeans' regarding their feelings of attachment and

belonging.

3.1 Attachment to other countries

Respondents were asked to name two other countries to which they feel most attached,

apart from their country of residence. The country of first choice will be discussed first,

followed by the country of second choice.

Country-by-country analysis shows that more than half (51%) of the interviewees feel

some attachment to a country other than the country where they reside14. The highest

proportions of those feeling affinity with another country are found in Luxembourg (84%),

Sweden (82%), the Netherlands (79%), Malta (77%), Cyprus (77%), Belgium, Denmark

(both 69%), the Czech Republic (66%), Slovakia and Germany (both 62%). These

countries, accordingly, have the fewest respondents reporting that they have no

attachment to any other country.

Countries where respondents feel the least attachment to other countries are Italy (31%),

Latvia (32%), Poland (35%), Portugal (38%), Slovenia (39%), Greece (40%), Bulgaria

and Romania (both 42%). Accordingly, these countries have the highest percentages of

respondents reporting no attachments. Respondents in Latvia, who are most likely to

emigrate (see part 2 of this report), have a low attachment to other countries. Their

desire to move seems to be due to other factors, for example the employment situation:

other surveys conducted these last months show that Latvia is one of the EU Member

States with the highest proportion of respondents saying the employment situation in

their country is bad15.

The countries people feel affinity with (other than their own country) and which they

mentioned most often are France, Italy and Spain (each 5%), Germany (4%) and Austria,

the UK, and the USA (each 3%).

Interviewees were also asked to mention a second country they feel attached to16 .

Analysis of the first and second country together17 did not change the ranking of the

most popular countries. On the contrary, it confirms the popularity of France, Italy and

Spain (all 8%), Germany (6%), the UK and the USA (both 5%), and Austria (4%).

Greece joins the list when second favorite countries are included (3%).

The general pattern of attachment seems to follow historical-cultural principles (language)

or simply geographical proximity. More than half of the Cypriots surveyed (59%) mention

Greece; a considerable number of respondents in Malta (47%) and a lesser but still

considerable proportion of interviewees in Ireland (26%) feel attached to the UK. A

significant number of Maltese respondents (36%) also cite Italy as a country they feel

attached to. A sizeable minority of respondents in Slovakia (44%) mentioned the Czech

Republic and, similarly, respondents in the Czech Republic are most likely to mention

affinity with Slovakia (40%). Over a quarter of the respondents in Luxembourg (40%)

and in Belgium (38%) feel attached to France. One fifth of respondents in Finland (23%)

feel attached to Sweden. Interviewees in Sweden rarely mention their neighbor Finland

(6%), instead displaying more interest than any other respondents in a variety of “other”

countries (38%).

Socio-demographic analysis reveals that gender, age, education and occupation are of

influence regarding respondents mentioning at least one other country they feel attached

to. Gender carries limited influence as men (53%) are slightly more likely to cite another

country than women (48%). The younger the respondents are, more likely they are to

mention another country they feel attached to: 58% of the youngest aged 15-24

compared to 43% of the oldest respondents 55+. An analysis by education shows that

the longer they have been in education, the more likely respondents are to cite another

country: 65% of those who studied till the age of 20 or beyond compared to 36% of

those who had finished education at the age of 15 or earlier. A similar pattern is found

for occupation. Managers (68%), students (61%) and white collar workers (57%) more

often mention other countries than retired people (41%) and house persons (42%).

Analysis of 'New Europeans' shows that 64% of 'New Europeans by ancestry' cite

another country, and this proportion goes up to 73% amongst 'New Europeans by

openness'. In comparison, this figure drops to 42% for 'Old Europeans'.

3.2. Reasons for attachment to other countries

Feelings of attachment to a country other than one’s country of residence can have

various reasons. We have seen that considerable numbers of respondents feel attached

to one or even two countries other than their country of residence. We next asked these

respondents about their reasons for attachment to their first preference.18

18 QB11 And what are the three main reasons you feel attached to (COUNTRY QB10a)?

Page 61: Full report New Europeans - MARCH FINAL · 'New Europeans by openness alone' (11% of the sample), 'New Europeans by ancestry alone' (8% of the sample), 'Old Europeans' (64% of the

SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 346 NEW EUROPEANS

59

The top three reasons for attachment to the country of first preference are spending

holidays or weekends in that country (25%) and having personal relationships there, that

is close friends (23%) and/or close relatives (21%).

These reasons correspond to the personal links that constitute an important factor for

connection to other countries as discussed in part 1 of this report.

These are followed by socio-cultural interests, such as keeping up with news, cultural life

or sports of that country (16%) or regularly eating typical foreign foods at home (11%).

Reasons mentioned less often, but still significantly, include having close friends who

moved from that other country (8%), being born there (8%) and having had work

experience there (7%). The reasons mentioned least often are having studied (4%) or

having a partner from that country (4%) and owning property there (2%). Last but not

least, more than one in ten respondents (11%) cannot come up with any particular

reason why they feel attached to that other country, which might exactly be an indication

of subjective, emotional attachment.

Reasons for attachment to the countries of first and second preference:

The analysis of the first and second countries together generally reveals the same

pattern as for the attachment to the first country mentioned. In the remainder of this

section, the analyses of the two preferred countries will therefore be aggregated. The

country-by-country analysis will be done on these aggregated results.

SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 346 NEW EUROPEANS

61

Holidays and weekends

Spending weekends or holidays in another country is the most common reason for

attachment to that country (30% at EU level). However, a closer look at the respondents’

main reasons by country reveals some differences. More than half of the respondents

mention this reason in the Netherlands (65%), Denmark (59%), Belgium and

Luxembourg (each 52%). Almost half of the respondents mention this reason in Germany

(49%), Austria (48%), the UK (42%) and Sweden (40%). All these countries have been

EU Member States since 15 years or more and share a relatively high standard of living;

spending holidays abroad may be part of respondents’ life style. Holidays are seldom

mentioned as a reason for attachment to another country in Bulgaria (1%), Lithuania and

Greece (each 3%).

SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 346 NEW EUROPEANS

62

Close friends

The second most common reason for attachment (28% at EU level) to another country is

having close friends living there. Approaching half of the respondents in Slovakia (48%),

Lithuania, Ireland (each 47%), Finland (45%), Estonia (42%), Luxembourg, Cyprus

(each 41%) and Bulgaria (40%) mention this reason. Respondents cite this much less

often in Hungary (17%), Italy (21%), Spain (23%) and France (24%).

SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 346 NEW EUROPEANS

63

Close relatives

The third most common reason for attachment to another country (across all

respondents) is, as we have seen, having close relatives who live there (34%). This

reason is mentioned most often in Ireland and Lithuania (52% each), Luxembourg (50%),

Cyprus (45%), Romania (42%), Portugal and Estonia (39%), Malta and Latvia (37%

each). It is mentioned least often in Italy (10%), Hungary (12%) and the Czech Republic

(14%).

SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 346 NEW EUROPEANS

64

Other reasons for attachment to another country

One in five Europeans follow news, cultural life or sports in their preferred other countries.

In Malta, half of the interviewees (49%) have this interest, followed by Denmark (38%),

Slovakia (36%), Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg (all 32%), Cyprus (31%) and

Latvia (30%).

One in seven European respondents regularly eat typical food from another country of

preference at home (14%), particularly in Austria (27%), Germany (23%), Denmark

(22%), Sweden (21%) and Slovakia (20%).

Austria also has the highest proportion of interviewees who feel attached to another

country because they have friends who came from this other country (22%, compared to

12% at EU level), followed by the Czech Republic and Latvia (both 17%).

Attachment to another country because of past work experience there is stronger in the

Nordic countries - Sweden (17%), Finland and Denmark (both 16%) - compared to 9%

at EU level.

Luxembourg has the highest percentages of interviewees (24%) who were born in other

countries they feel attached to, followed by Spain (18%). These proportions are much

higher than the score observed at EU level (8%).

The highest percentages of respondents who say spontaneously that they have no

particular reason for their feelings of attachment to their preferred ‘other’ country are

found in Italy (43%), Hungary (41%), Poland (37%), Bulgaria (33%), the Czech Republic

(27%) and Greece (22%). However, bear in mind the small number of respondents who

actually feel such affinities in these countries (except Hungary and the Czech Republic);

this refusal to identify a reason might reflect the reluctance of minority groups to reveal

their cultural or ethnic background.

65

Socio-demographic analysis reveals some interesting differences regarding the

reasons underlying attachment to other countries: age, education, subjective

urbanisation and financial situation are of importance, and to a lesser extent gender and

occupation.

Gender has almost no influence on the reasons for attachment to other countries

measured in this survey. However, it can be noted that more men than women say that

they follow news, cultural life and sports in the other country (23% compared to 17%).

Age is clearly an important determinant of reasons for attachment to another country.

Older respondents aged 40-54 and 55+ are the most likely to mention holidays as a

reason for attachment (34% and 33% respectively), more often than younger

respondents aged 15-24 and 25-39 (26% and 27%). Interviewees aged 25-34 are the

age group the most likely to mention close friends (31%) or close relatives (27%) who

live in their preferred other country. The youngest age group (15-24) are the most likely

to give following news, cultural life and sports in their preferred country as a reason for

attachment (23%).

Education is even more important than age in this context. Here the results are more

straightforward: those educated until age 20 or beyond record higher percentages for all

reasons for attachment than those with lower levels of education, as can be seen in the

table below.

Occupational situation is of limited relevance. More managers mention holidays in their

preferred other country (42%) as a reason for attachment to that country, followed by

having close friends living there (33%) and eating food typical of that country (21%).

House persons, on the other hand, most often mention having close relatives living in

their preferred other country (29%) as a reason for attachment.

Financial situation influences the reasons for attachment, for instance the ability to take

holidays. Those who 'almost never' have difficulties with paying their bills, more often

mention holidays (36%) than those who have financial problems 'most of the time'

(15%).

Analysis of 'New Europeans' shows that the reasons for attachment the most often

mentioned by 'New Europeans by ancestry alone' are, obviously, having relatives who

live there (39%), spending holidays there (34%), and, to a lesser extent, eating food

typical of that country (18%). For 'New Europeans by openness alone' the corresponding

figures are 21%, 31% and 15% respectively; for 'Old Europeans' they are 15%, 31% and

13% respectively.

'New Europeans by openness alone' are more likely to mention close friends who live

there (37%) than are 'New Europeans by ancestry alone' (30%) or 'Old Europeans'

(22%).

'Old Europeans' resemble 'New Europeans by openness alone' in recording comparable

proportions of respondents who mention spending holidays (both 31%), following news,

cultural life or sports (both 20%) and eating typical national food as reasons for

attachment (13% and 15%).

In conclusion, personal relationships (friends, relatives) and socio-cultural interests

(holiday, news, sports, culture, food) are the most common reasons for feelings of

attachment to another specific country, while personal experiences (work, study) in that

country are mentioned less often. This corroborates the picture regarding connectedness

to other countries in general (part 1 of this report).

3.3. Different levels of attachment: city, region, country and EU

People can experience attachment to different geographical levels: to the municipality

they inhabit (their city, town or village), to the region where they live, to their country,

or to the European Union. This distinction was made to investigate if and how attachment

is influenced by geographical proximity. We asked the respondents to what extent they

feel attached to different geographical levels19.

19QB13 People may feel different levels of attachment to their village, town or city, to their region, to their country or to the European Union. Please tell me how attached you feel to QB13.1 Your city/ town/ village (SPLIT A) or The city/ town/ village where you live (SPLIT B) QB13.3 Your region (SPLIT A) or The region where you live (SPLIT B) QB13.5 (OUR COUNTRY) QB13.8 The European Union

SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 346 NEW EUROPEANS

68

An experiment was conducted during the survey in order to explore the influence of

changes in the exact wording of the items on the results. Half of the sample (split A) was

asked about 'your city/town/village' and 'your region' while the other half (split B) was

asked about 'the city/ town/ village where you live' and 'the region where you live' (split

B). The reason for this nuance is that it was unclear in advance whether respondents

would think of their city, town, village or region of origin. The results, nevertheless,

demonstrate that the changes in wording had almost no influence on the measured

attachment to city/ town/ village (87% and 86% for split A and split B) and to region

(88% for both split A and B). Therefore it was decided that treating the two split samples

together in further analyses is justified. For the Europeans interviewed, feelings of

attachment reported are mostly to a nation (93%), followed by a region (88%), and a

city, town or village (87%). Feelings of attachment to the European Union are reported

much less often (53%). In other words, national attachment is clearly the strongest,

followed at some distance by local attachments, whether regional or even more local.

Attachment to city, town or village

A large majority of Europeans (87%) feel attached to their city, town or village, which is

exactly the same percentage as in autumn 2007 (standard Eurobarometer 68). More

specifically, they felt ‘very attached’ (49%), ‘fairly attached’ (38%), ‘not very attached’

(10%), or ‘not at all attached’ (3%): these percentages are found both in 2010 and 2007.

Country-by-country analysis shows that respondents’ attachment to their city, town

or village is the strongest in Greece (96%), Portugal and Romania (95% each), Italy,

Austria and Poland (94% each). In contrast, this local attachment is reported the least in

the Netherlands (64%).

In terms of evolutions, the largest decline in the feeling of belonging to the city, town or

village of residence occurs in Belgium, down from 83% to 76% (-7% points) and in the

Netherlands, where it fall from 72% to 64% (-8% points).

Socio-demographic analysis reveals that the attachment to the city, town or village is

stronger among older respondents (91% of those aged 55+) than among younger

respondents (83% of those aged 15-24). This attachment to the city, town or village is

also more important among those who left school at or before age 15 (92%) than among

those who studied until 20 or later (83%). There are only few differences according to

subjective urbanisation. It can be noted, however, that inhabitants of large towns (89%)

are slightly more likely to be attached to their city than those living in small or mid-sized

towns (85%) or rural dwellers (87%).

Attachment to region

A vast majority of European respondents (88%) feel attached to their region, up three

points since March 2007 (EB67.1). More specifically, there was an increase in the number

of respondents who feel attached to their region: 'very attached' rose from 45% to 47%

(+2 points) and ‘fairly attached’ from 40% to 41% (+1 point). Accordingly, there was a

decrease in the number of respondents who do not feel attached to their region: ‘not

very attached’ decreased from 12% to 10% (-2 points) and ‘not at all attached’ from 3%

to 2% (-1 point).

71

Country-by-country analysis shows that highest proportions of respondents who feel

attached to their region are found in Portugal (96%), Greece, Italy (both 95%), and

Bulgaria, Poland and Romania (all 94%). Respondents in the Netherlands once again feel

the least attachment (67%). They are followed by respondents in Malta (72%), Denmark

(75%) and Sweden (78%). The strongest increase in feelings of attachment to the region

occurred in Italy, from 87% to 95% (+8 points).

Socio-demographic analysis reveals that respondents’ age also influences the extent

of attachment to the region: 93% of those aged 55+ are attached to their region

compared to 82% of those aged 15-24. Education also plays a role: 94% of those who

left school by the age of 15 feel regional attachments, compared to 84% of those whose

education ended at or after the age of 20.

Attachment to respondents’ own country

The vast majority of European respondents (93%) feel attached to their country, up two

points since autumn 2007 (91%). More specifically, the number of respondents who feel

'very attached' to their own country increased from 52% to 56% (+4 points), whereas

there was a decrease in the number of respondents who feel ‘fairly attached’ from 39%

to 37%, ‘not very attached’ from 7% to 6% (-1 points) and ‘not at all attached’ from 2%

to 1% (-1 point).

The strongest increases in national attachment are in the UK, from 84% to 91% (+7

points), Slovakia, from 90% to 96% (+6 points), Italy, from 91% to 97% (+6 points),

and Ireland, from 93% to 98% (+5 points).

Countries with the highest proportions of respondents with a sense of national

attachment are Greece, Poland (both 99%), Denmark, Ireland, Cyprus and Portugal (all

98%). The lowest proportions are found in Belgium and the Netherlands (both 82%).

Socio-demographic variables have no significant influence on respondents’ attachment to

their country, except that it is slightly stronger in the older respondents group (96% for

those aged 55+) than in younger respondents group (90% for those aged 15-24).

SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 346 NEW EUROPEANS

72

Attachment to the EU

More than half (53%) of the respondents feel attached to the European Union, which

represents an increase of four points since autumn 2007 (49%). Nevertheless, national

attachment is far stronger than attachment to the EU. There was an increase in the

number of respondents who feel attached to the EU: 'very attached' rose from 11% to

12% (+1 point) and ‘fairly attached’ from 38% to 41% (+3 points). This coincides with a

decrease in the number of respondents who do not feel attached to the EU: ‘not very

attached’ fell from 33% to 32% (-1 point) and ‘not at all attached’ from 15% to 13% (-2

points).

At national level, significant increases and decreases are found. The greatest increases

were found in Slovakia, from 42% to 62% (+20 points), Italy, from 57% to 73% (+16

points), Bulgaria, from 40% to 54% (+14 points) and Austria, from 41% to 54% (+13

points). The greatest declines in attachment to the EU are recorded in Belgium, from

65% to 50% (-15 points) and Romania, from 56% to 46% (-10 points).

Countries with the largest proportions of respondents feeling attachment to the EU are

Italy (73%), Luxembourg (69%) and Poland (64%). The lowest proportions are found in

the UK, Cyprus (both 29%), Finland, the Netherlands (both 33%), Estonia (35%),

Sweden, Lithuania (37% each) and Denmark (38%).

Some differences can be found in accordance with the socio-demographic profile of the

respondents. Attachment to the EU is stronger in younger respondents (57%) than in

older respondents (50% for those aged 55+). Education and self-positioning on the social

scale are also relevant as those with higher education or higher self-positioning (both

58%) are more likely to feel attached to the EU than those with the least education or

who position themselves at the bottom of the social ladder (46% and 45%).

Analysis of 'New Europeans' demonstrates that 'New Europeans by openness alone'

feel somewhat more attachment to the EU (55%) than 'New Europeans by ancestry

alone' (50%) and 'Old Europeans' (51%).

3.4 Comparison of attachment: own country versus other

countries

To compare the feelings of attachment respondents have for their own country with

those they have for the other two countries for which they feel an affinity, they were also

asked about the extent of their feelings towards these other countries20.

The interviewees mainly report feelings of attachment to their own country (93%),

followed by the first other country mentioned (66%) and then by the second (55%).

Basis: item 6 asked to those who cited a first country they feel attached to (51%); Item 7 asked to those who

cited a second country they feel attached to (30%).

When comparing the strength of attachment Europeans feel to their own country as

compared to their other two favoured countries, it appears that for respondents in all

countries, without exception, their attachment to their own country is the strongest,

followed by the first and second other countries of preference.

Some interesting differences between countries emerge. The three Baltic countries,

Estonia, Lithuania and Latvia, record considerable differences (of +56, +52 and +41

points respectively) between the degree of attachment respondents feel towards their

own country and their first other country of preference. Hungary (+55 points), Poland

74

(+51 points), Finland (+45 points) and the Czech Republic (+41 points) also show

differences. Conversely, respondents in Luxembourg, the country with most New

Europeans, demonstrate the least difference between the strength of their attachment to

their country of residence and to their first other country of preference (+7 points).

75

Analysis of the answers of 'Old Europeans' and 'New Europeans' reveals that 'New

Europeans by openness alone' (71%) and those 'by ancestry alone' (73%) both have

much stronger attachments to another country than 'Old Europeans' (58%). Nevertheless,

attachment to their country of residence is stronger in all three groups (89%, 93%, 94%

respectively). Far more respondents say they are “very” attached to their country of

residence (51%, 52%, 58%) than to their first other country of preference (16%, 20%,

9%). 'New Europeans' show more interest in and attachment to other countries than do

'Old Europeans', but these feelings are far weaker than their feelings for their own

country.

3.5 Belonging to a group

The feeling of belonging to a group is an important aspect of the quality of life and it may

influence the extent to which respondents feel attached to a place. A distinction can be

made between majority and minority groups. We asked respondents whether they feel

they belong to one of the majority groups in their country or to a minority group in terms

of religion, culture or ethnic origin. Furthermore, the feeling of belonging to a group may

be determined both by self-identification and by our impression of how others perceive

us. Therefore we asked the respondents both questions21.

Nevertheless, there appears to be no significant differences between the two: a majority

of respondents feel that they belong to a majority group (70%) and/or feel that other

people in their country generally perceive them as belonging to a majority group (70%).

Nearly one in ten respondents feel that they belong to a minority group (9%) and/or feel

that others have that perception (8%).

Remarkably, a sizeable relative minority (16%) spontaneously answer “neither group”, as

opposed to the 5% who either say that they did not know or refused to answer. The

members of this sizeable minority might feel they do not belong to any group. The

second group may not answer because they feel that they belong at once to a majority

and a minority group and do not (wish to) make a choice between them. There is also a

small but significant minority of 14% that spontaneously answered “neither group” when

asked how they feel that other people perceive them – as opposed to the 8% who said

that they did not know or refused to answer.

77

This absence of difference between the two dimensions (self perception and feeling of

being perceived by the others) can be interpreted in several ways. It is possible that an

individual’s feeling of belonging to a group corresponds objectively to the perception of

others. However, it could be that the two variables are interrelated: the feeling of

belonging to a group is influenced by how respondents think others perceive them. In

other words, someone may see himself as belonging to a minority group because that is

how he thinks he is perceived by others.

Feelings of belonging to a group

Country-by-country analysis shows that the highest proportions of respondents who

feel they belong to a majority group are found in Denmark (91%), Finland (90%), Cyprus

(88%), the Netherlands (87%), Sweden (87%), the Czech Republic (85%) and Bulgaria

(82%). In contrast, the highest proportions of respondents who feel they belong to a

minority group are found in Luxembourg (18%), the UK (14%) and Spain (13%). Once

again, Luxembourg stands out: this confirms the special situation of Luxembourg

previously highlighted when it comes to connection with other countries. Furthermore,

respondents in Portugal (46%), Greece (29%), France (28%) and Italy (26%) are most

likely to report that they feel they do not belong to either group.

SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 346 NEW EUROPEANS

78

Socio-demographic analysis reveals some differences regarding education, occupation

and standard of living. The longer they have remained in education, the more likely it is

that respondents feel that they belong to a majority group (74% of those educated to

age 20 or beyond, compared to 68% of those who left school at 15 or earlier). Managers

are thus most likely to feel they belong to a majority group (78%) and the unemployed

least likely (65%).

Respondents without employment are most likely to feel that they belong to a minority

group (13%). Last but not least, those who have difficulties with paying their bills are

more likely to feel they belong to a minority group: 14 % of respondents who have such

difficulties, as compared to 7% of those who almost never have these problems.

SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 346 NEW EUROPEANS

79

Analysis of 'New Europeans' shows that those 'by ancestry alone' significantly more

often (14%) feel they belong to a minority group than those 'by openness alone' (8%)

and 'Old Europeans' (6%). In short, 'New Europeans by ancestry' are more likely to feel

that they do not belong to the majority group, which is not the case for 'New Europeans

by openness'.

3.6 Reasons for belonging to a group

People’s own perceptions or the feeling of being perceived by others as belonging to a

majority or minority group, can have various reasons. Respondents were therefore asked

why they think other people in their country perceive them as belonging to a specific

group22.

22 QB15 Regardless of whether you or others think that you belong to the majority or to a minority group, for

which of the following reasons, if any, could people in (OUR COUNTRY) perceive you as belonging to a specific group? If you have no opinion or prefer not to answer, please say so.

81

Firstly, about one in three Europeans think it is because of their language or accent (34%)

and/or their culture, values or lifestyle (30%) that people in their country perceive as

belonging to a specific group. Secondly, interviewees often mention ethnic or origin

characteristics: skin colour and/or ethnic origin (22%), the area where they live (19%),

their religion (17%) and their name (15%). Thirdly, they quote their physical condition or

appearance (14%) and to a lesser extent the way they dress (9%), their age (7%) and

their occupation (7%).

Country-by-country analysis reveals a general pattern. The great majority of countries

record the same two chief reasons for being seen as belonging to a group, but there are

differences with respect to the third most prevalent reason.

Socio-demographic analysis shows a general pattern in which young respondents are

the most likely to cite almost all the reasons for being seen as belonging to a group. This

also goes for those who are more highly educated and those who place themselves

higher on the social ladder, perhaps because of greater awareness of discrimination.

'New Europeans' are not very different from 'Old Europeans' in this respect, with the

exception of skin colour and name as reasons for being perceived as belonging to a group.

A more detailed analysis of country-by-country and socio-demographic results will be

conducted in the next section.

Language or accent

Slightly more than a third (34%) of the respondents generally think that their language

or accent is one of the most obvious reason why other people in their country classify

them as belonging to a specific group.

Country-by-country analysis shows that respondents are the most likely to think that

language or accent matters in Greece (50%), Ireland (49%), Sweden (48%), Austria

(48%), Germany (45%) and the UK (45%). In contrast, at the other end of the scale

respondents in Lithuania (14%), France (18%) and Hungary (19%) are the least likely to

believe this.

84

Socio-demographic analysis reveals that there are not many differences apart from

occupation, financial situation and self positioning on the social scale. Only 27% of the

unemployed think that their language or accent is of importance, compared to 40% of

managers. Those who almost never have problems paying their bills (36%) are more

likely to think that their language or accent is a major reason why other people classify

them as belonging to a specific group than those who have such problems most of the

time (28%). Accordingly, those who position themselves higher on the social scale (39%)

more often think this is the case than those who place themselves towards the bottom

(29%).

Culture values and lifestyle

Just short of a third (30%) of the European respondents think that their culture, values

or lifestyle make other people in their country perceive them as belonging to a specific

group.

85

Country-by-country analysis shows that Cyprus (56%) leads the ranking in this

respect, followed at some distance by Malta (45%), Sweden (42%), Austria (41%), the

Netherlands (41%) and Estonia (40%). The fewest respondents with this opinion are

found in Lithuania (13%), Poland (18%), France (19%), Romania (21%), Portugal (22%)

and Finland (24%).

Socio-demographic analysis reveals that education, occupation, financial situation and

self positioning on the social ladder are all significant. As the level of education increases,

respondents are more likely to believe that their culture, values or lifestyle make others

perceive them as belonging to a specific group. One third (34%) of those educated to

age 20 or beyond hold this belief, whereas this figure shrinks to one quarter (25%) for

those who left school at 15 or earlier. Managers (36%) and white collar workers (36%)

are more likely to take this view than the unemployed (25%). Those who 'almost never'

have difficulties paying their bills (31%) and respondents who position themselves high

on the social scale (35%) are more likely to mention culture, values and lifestyle as a

major reason than those who have difficulties paying their bills 'most of the time' and

those who place themselves at the bottom of the social ladder (both 25%).

Other reasons for being perceived as belonging to a group are mentioned less often, but

there are some striking results. The area where one lives is of importance in Estonia

(35%) and the Czech Republic (33%), compared to 19% at EU level. Religion is more

important in the Mediterranean countries of Cyprus (49%), Greece (43%) and Malta

(36%), compared to 17% at EU level, while a person’s name and physical appearance is

very influential in Sweden (44% and 36% respectively, compared to 15% and 14% at EU

level).

*****

A general pattern emerged regarding respondents’ attachment to specific countries other

than their country of residence, reflecting historical-cultural (language) communalities or

merely geographical proximity.

The analysis of reasons for attachment to other countries reveals that personal

relationships (friends, relatives) and socio-cultural interests (holidays) are the most

common reasons, while personal experiences (work, study) in the other country are

mentioned less often. There are only limited differences between 'New and Old

Europeans'.

Analysis of attachment at different geographical levels shows that attachment to the

country of residence is by far the strongest, followed at some distance by regional or

even more local attachments. Attachment to the EU is less strong, though it has

increased since 2007.

'New Europeans by openness alone' are slightly more inclined to feel attachment to the

EU than 'New Europeans by foreign ancestry' alone and 'Old Europeans', though the

difference is small.

Europeans’ strength of attachment to their own country is by far stronger than the

strength of attachment to their favoured other countries. Both types of 'New Europeans'

feel stronger attachment to their favoured other countries than 'Old Europeans' do, but

still all three groups are most attached to their own country.

A minority - not quite one in ten - feel they belong to a minority group. 'New Europeans

by ancestry alone' are more likely to feel that they belong to a minority group than 'New

Europeans by openness alone' and 'Old Europeans'.

4. IDENTITY

This last section of the report addresses the multi-dimensional concept of identity.

Identity can, for example, be considered a matter of self-expression, citizenship, loyalty

or group membership. Identity can also vary from one level to another: one’s regional,

national and European identity can indeed be very different.

Respondents were asked about the most important characteristics of being a national of

their country of residence, and about how European they feel.

4.1. National identity

We saw in the previous part of the report that almost all respondents feel most attached

to their own country, i.e. not only more than to other countries, but also more than to

their region, city, town or village. This is the case in every EU Member State.

Respondents were then asked what they think are the most important characteristics of

being a national of their country23.

23QB1 People differ in what they think it means to be (NATIONALITY). In your view, among the following,what do you think are the most important characteristics to be (NATIONALITY)?

Almost half of the respondents think that being born in that country is an important

characteristic of national feeling (49%). It is by far the most cited aspect. This is followed

by four characteristics, all mentioned by approximately equal proportions of respondents:

mastering a country’s national language (34%), feeling of that nationality (34%), sharing

cultural traditions (33%) and exercising citizens’ rights, for example by voting (33%).

Over a quarter of the interviewees say that to have been brought up in that country

(28%) is an important characteristic of being a national of that country. Mentioned less

often, but still significant, is having at least one parent of that nationality (18%). The

least frequently cited characteristics are being a Christian (9%) and being active in any

association or organisation in that country (3%).

Comparing these figures with spring 2009 (Standard Eurobarometer EB71), there are

some interesting changes.

Firstly, the largest difference is that feeling of that nationality has lost quite some

significance, having dropped 8 points from 42% to 34%, while at the same time being

born in that country has clearly gained importance, up 7 points from 42% to 49%. While

these two items were equally ranked in first place in June 2009, there is now a 15

percentage point difference between them.

Secondly, characteristics which are mentioned by an increasing number of interviewees

are mastering a country’s national language, from 29% to 34% (+5 points), having at

least one parent of that nationality, from 13% to 18% (+5 points), exercising citizens’

rights, for example by voting, from 29% to 33% (+4 points), and having been brought

up in that country, from 25% to 28% (+3 points).

Thirdly, the characteristics mentioned less often than in spring 2009 are

– besides feeling of that nationality as noted above – sharing national cultural traditions,

down from 37% to 33% (-4 points), being active in any association or organisation, from

5% to 3% (-2 points) and being a Christian (from 10% to 9% (-1 point).

To sum up, the determining factors of the national identity seem to have changed since

spring 2009 in the sense that the emphasis on the most elusive, subjective concepts

(feeling, sharing, believing) is diminishing, while there is a growing emphasis on the

most objective, concrete concepts (places of birth of the respondents and their parents,

place of upbringing, language skills and civil rights).

Country-by-country analysis reveals that being born in that country is indeed the

primary characteristic of national identity in 13 Member States: Portugal (69%), Malta

(68%), Ireland (65%), Cyprus (64%), Spain (63%), Romania (63%), Bulgaria (58%),

the Czech Republic (56%), the United Kingdom (55%), Italy (53%), Greece (51%),

Belgium (50%) and Poland (45%). Conversely, it is least important in Sweden (22%) and

Denmark (25%).

SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 346 NEW EUROPEANS

90

In other countries, mastering a national language is of more importance: Estonia (66%),

Denmark (65%), Germany (62%), Lithuania (59%), the Netherlands (58%), Austria

(53%), Slovakia (53%), Luxembourg (51%) and Slovenia (46%). Across the EU,

mastering a national language is least important in Portugal (4%).

Feeling of the relevant nationality is the most prominent characteristic in Hungary (63%),

Sweden (56%), Finland (52%) and Latvia (46%). It is least important in Germany, Italy

and Ireland (all 24%).

Exercising the rights of a citizen is the most significant characteristic in France (50%).

This characteristic is also quite important in Sweden (54%), almost as important as

feeling Swedish (56%). Exercising citizens’ rights is least often mentioned in Spain

(20%), Portugal and Lithuania (both 21%).

Shared cultural traditions are not the leading characteristic in any of the countries

surveyed; at its highest it is in second place. It is mentioned most frequently in Denmark

(49%), Belgium (45%) and Luxembourg (42%). Countries where sharing cultural

traditions is mentioned least often are Spain (19%), Portugal, Slovakia and Hungary (all

20%).

Having been brought up in that country is the most often considered important in Finland

(46%) and the Czech Republic (41%), and the least often in Greece (14%) and

Luxembourg (16%).

Having at least one parent of that nationality is the most frequently considered important

in Cyprus (48%) and Greece (44%). It is the least important to those in Sweden,

Denmark and Latvia (all 9%).

Being a Christian is more cited in Romania (36%), Cyprus (35%), Greece (33%) –

countries with a strong religious tradition - and Malta (29%) as compared to Sweden and

the Czech Republic (2% each), the Netherlands, Belgium, Spain and Estonia (all 3%).

Being active in any association or organisation in that country is mentioned the most

often in Denmark (9%) and the Netherlands (8%).

Compared to spring 2009 (Standard Eurobarometer EB71), significant changes occurred

at a national level which show a general shift from subjective aspects to more objective

ones in the make up of national identity.

Being born in the country has gained importance considerably at the expense of feeling

of being the relevant nationality in several countries. The most striking drops in the latter

accompanied by a significant increase in the former are found in Lithuania (-20 points

from 54% to 34% and +12 points from 36% to 48%)24 and Luxembourg (-16 points

from 58% to 42% and +13 points from 28% to 41%). Impressive changes for both items

are also noted in Cyprus (-15 points, from 43% to 28% and +16 points from 48% to

64%), Malta (-15 points, from 46% to 31% and +8 points from 60% to 68%) and

Romania (-12 points, from 38% to 26% and +14 points from 49% to 63%).

24 The first percentage is the result of “to be born in (OUR COUNTRY)”; second percentage: “to feel

(NATIONALITY)”.

Socio-demographic analysis reveals the influence of education on all nine

characteristics of national identity.

Those who left school at 15 or earlier put more emphasis than those who studied till 20

or after on being born in that country (57% versus 39%), being raised in that country

(30% versus 25%) and being a Christian (13% versus 6%). The better educated, in turn,

put more emphasis on all the remaining characteristics.

The following differences are found between those who finished education at 15 or before

and those who studied to 20 or beyond: exercising civil rights, such as voting (25%

versus 41%), feeling as being of that nationality (31% versus 39%), sharing cultural

traditions (28% versus 39%) and mastering a national language (28% versus 38%).

SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 346 NEW EUROPEANS

94

Turning to age, the youngest respondents aged 15-24 attached the least weight (27%)

to sharing cultural traditions compared to all older age groups (33% to 34%), while the

oldest respondents aged 55+ attach more importance (13%) to being a Christian than all

the younger groups (6% to 7%).

Analysis of 'New Europeans' shows that 'Old Europeans' tend to attach more

importance to being born in their country (54%) compared to either type of 'New

Europeans' (42% and 43%); 'Old Europeans' also attach less importance to citizens’

rights (31%) compared to 'New Europeans' (both 37%).

'New Europeans by openness alone' most often mention the sharing of cultural traditions

(37%) as an important aspect of national identity, compared to 'Old Europeans' (32%)

and 'New Europeans by ancestry alone' (31%).

'New Europeans by ancestry alone' in turn, stand out by being the most likely (42%) to

mention mastering the national language as an important element of national identity,

compared to both 'Old Europeans' (32%) and 'New Europeans by openness alone' (35%).

4.2 European identity

Elements of European identity

More than half (53%) of the Europeans surveyed feel attached to the European Union. To

gain more insight into this connectedness to Europe, we asked respondents what they

think are the most important elements of European identity25.

25 QB2 In your opinion, which of the following are the two most important elements that go to make up a

European identity?

Page 98: Full report New Europeans - MARCH FINAL · 'New Europeans by openness alone' (11% of the sample), 'New Europeans by ancestry alone' (8% of the sample), 'Old Europeans' (64% of the

SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 346 NEW EUROPEANS

96

The most important elements, each mentioned by around a third of the respondents, are

the euro (36%) and democratic values (32%). The next two most defining elements are

geography and common culture (each mentioned by 22%). They are followed by

common history (17%), the high level of social protection (13%) and by symbols – flag,

hymn and motto ‘unity in diversity’ (11%). Only a small minority mentioned common

religious heritage (5%). Finally, only 3% of the Europeans surveyed answered

spontaneously that there is no such thing as a European identity.

Compared with the last time this question was asked, in Standard Eurobarometer 71

(spring 2009), the question had changed with the introduction of two new elements in

2010, namely the euro and the symbols – flag, hymn and motto. The great importance

given to the euro (36%) and to a much lesser extent that of symbols (11%) as primary

elements of European identity seems to be at the expense of the other elements; the

euro and the symbols have pushed the other elements down from their previous ranks

because respondents were allowed to choose only two elements. This means that

comparison of the 2009 and 2010 results is unjustified, because the group of elements

from which the respondents had to choose in 2010 is not the same as in 2009. The

results are nevertheless presented here for information.

In spring 2009, democratic values stood out as the leading element in European identity,

followed by four elements (geography, high level of social protection, common history

and common culture). Now, the introduction of the two new items has led to the

emergence of a much clearer hierarchy of elements, with the euro in first place.

On this question, interesting differences can be seen between groups of countries: euro

zone countries far more often (46%) consider the euro as an important element of

European identity than the remaining EU Member States (18%). The single currency is

also of more importance to the fifteen old Member States (39%) than to the twelve new

Member States26 (25%), as well the democratic values (34% compared to 24%). For the

new Member States, in turn, common history and symbols are more important as

elements of European identity (22% and 17%) than for the old Member States (16% and

9%).

26 Old Member States are those that joined the EU before 2004. New Member States are those that have

acceded to the EU from 2004 onwards.

QB2 In your opinion, which of the following are the two most important elements that go to make up a European identity? (ROTATE – MAX. 2 ANSWERS)

Country-by-country analysis shows that the euro is indeed the most important

element in 17 Member States: Slovenia (61%), France (59%), Slovakia (57%), Belgium,

Finland (55% each), Greece (53%), Ireland (52%), the Netherlands (49%), Luxembourg

(48%), Spain (48%), Malta (45%), Italy (39%), Portugal (39%), Germany (38%),

Estonia (34%), Latvia (31%) and Romania (29%). Note that the last three countries

named are not in the euro zone at present (although Estonia will join on 1 January 2011).

The euro is the least important in the United Kingdom (12%), Sweden (17%), Hungary

and Denmark (each 18%), all non-euro zone countries.

Another important element of European identity is democratic values. It is the most

important element in six Member States: Sweden (71%), Denmark (65%), Cyprus

(51%), Austria (40%), Lithuania (34%) and the Czech Republic (31%).

Two other important elements are geography, the most important element in Bulgaria

(35%) and common culture, the most important element in the United Kingdom (26%)

and Poland (25%). Finally, common history is the most important in Hungary (33%).

Socio-demographic analysis reveals that almost all categories selected the euro as the

most important element in a European identity. The longer educated are an exception in

this respect, putting democratic values in first position (43%), before the euro (35%).

The importance of democratic values as an element of European identity is influenced by

education and age. Those who left education at 20 or beyond mention democratic values

much more often than those who left school at 15 or earlier (43% versus 23%).

Regarding age, those aged 40-54 mentioned democratic values more often (35%) than

the youngest respondents (27%).

SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 346 NEW EUROPEANS

98

The importance of geography as an element of European identity is influenced slightly by

gender, education and age. More men (24%) than women (20%) mention geography as

an element of European identity, as do more of those who were educated until the age of

20 or beyond (25%) compared with those who left school at the age of 15 or earlier

(20%). The older respondents, 55+, mention geography less often (20%) than those in

the 15-24 and 25-39 age groups (23% each) and those aged 40-54 (25%).

Young interviewees attribute more importance to symbols – the flag, the hymn and the

motto 'unity in diversity' – as elements of European identity. Some 17% of those aged

15-24 mention this aspect, as compared to 12% of those aged 25-39, 10% of those aged

40-54 and 8% of the oldest respondents 55+.

In terms of 'New Europeans' there appear to be no significant differences regarding

important elements of European identity, except that democratic values are mentioned

more often by 'New Europeans by ancestry alone' (36%) and 'New Europeans by

openness alone' (38%) than by 'Old Europeans' (30%).

Importance of European identity

Respondents were then asked to indicate how important it is for them to be European27.

Almost six in ten (58%) of respondents indicate that being European matters to them,

whereas four in ten (40%) say it does not matter.

Compared to the last time this question was asked (Standard Eurobarometer 71, spring

2009), the proportion of those to whom it matters ‘a lot’ increased from 15% to 18% (+3

points), at the expense of those to whom it matters ‘somewhat’, which declined from

43% to 40% (-3 points). On the other hand, the proportion of respondents saying that it

does not matter to them ‘at all’ increased from 13% to 15% (+2 points). Opinion thus

seems slightly more polarised than in June 2009.

27QB3 Thinking now about the fact that you are European, how important is being European to you personally?

Being European…

100

At the national level, the highest percentages of respondents to whom ‘being European’

matters personally are found in Italy (82%), Hungary (76%), Luxembourg (74%), the

Czech Republic (73%), Slovakia (73%), Austria (72%), and Finland (70%). At the other

end of the scale, the lowest percentages are recorded in the United Kingdom (34%) and

Latvia (39%).

A comparison with the spring 2009 national results shows that the Member States with

growing proportions of respondents to whom ‘being European’ matters are Italy, with a

great leap from 58% to 82% (+24 points), Austria, up from 64% to 72% (+8 points) and

Hungary, up from 71% to 76% (+5 points).

Seventeen Member States saw a decline in the perceived importance of being European,

with the largest falls in Estonia, down from 73% to 54% (-19 points), Denmark, down

from 75% to 56% (-19 points), Cyprus, down from 64% to 48% (-16 points) and

Slovenia, down from 74% to 58% (-16 points).

101

Socio-demographic analysis reveals that education and occupation are of influence:

the more educated, the more it matters to be European. Indeed, 65% of those who

studied until the age of 20 or beyond and 63% of the self-employed and white-collar

workers indicate that it matters to them personally, as compared to 53% of those who

finished school at the age of 15 or earlier, 55% of the manual workers, and 51% of the

unemployed.

No significant differences were found between 'New Europeans' and 'Old Europeans' in

terms of their opinion on the importance of being European.

*****

Generally speaking, attitudes towards identity vary from country to country but also

between socio-demographic groups, such as those with different levels of education.

However, it seems that being an 'Old European' or a 'New European' has only a limited

impact on attitudes and opinions regarding European identity, and this is an important

finding of this survey.

CONCLUSION

In the light of a general interest in European connectedness or 'Europeanness', the

purpose of this study was to gain insight in the concept of 'New Europeans': people who

live in the EU and have connections with more than just the country where they reside.

The first challenge was to identify these 'New Europeans' and then to gain insight into the

varying degrees of connectedness, which involves diverse and complex connections.

This report approached connectedness from four angles: different types of connection,

Europeans’ plans to emigrate, feelings of attachment to places and belonging to groups,

and identity.

Four different types of connectedness were discerned:

Firstly, varying degrees of connectedness may exist through family descent. One

in fourteen Europeans were born in a country other than their country of

residence, one in ten have at least one parent born abroad, and one in eight have

at least one grandparent born abroad. Symmetrically, around two out of ten

Europeans have at least one grandparent who was born with a different

citizenship than that of the respondent’s country of residence.

Secondly, personal relationships with people from or in other countries appear

to be the most widespread type of connection within Europe among those

analysed in this survey. Four in ten Europeans have close friends living in another

country, more than a quarter have close friends who came from abroad and/or

close relatives – brothers, sisters, children, parents – who live abroad. One out of

twelve Europeans live or have lived with a partner of a different citizenship than

their own.

Thirdly, personal experiences abroad are less widespread, but significant.

Almost one in eight Europeans have worked abroad, one in twelve have studied

abroad, and one in ten have lived abroad for other reasons. Finally, one in thirty

Europeans own a real property abroad.

Fourthly, socio-cultural links with other countries are widespread. More than

one-third of Europeans regularly eat food typical of another country, follow news,

cultural life or sports from another country, are fluent in at least one foreign

language or regularly spend holidays or weekends abroad.

SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 346 NEW EUROPEANS

103

More than one in ten Europeans plan to move to another country within the next ten

years, half of them expecting to move to another EU Member State. On this question,

being 'Old European' or 'New European' influences respondents’ attitudes significantly:

for 'New Europeans by ancestry alone', moving abroad is more likely (15%), and even

more so for 'New Europeans by openness alone' (19%). By contrast, only one in twenty

'Old Europeans' expect to move to another country.

Around half of Europeans feel some attachment to a country other than the country in

which they live. Around two in three 'New Europeans by ancestry alone', and close to

three in four 'New Europeans by openness alone' feel attached to at least one country

other than their country of residence, compared to 41% of the 'Old Europeans'.

Analysis of attachment at different geographical levels shows that national attachment is

by far the strongest. More than nine in ten Europeans feel attachment to their own

country (of residence). This is followed at some distance by regional or even more local

attachment (city/town/village). Attachment to the EU is mentioned by slightly more than

one in two Europeans, thus less frequently than attachment to the lower geographical

levels in all EU Member States. Nevertheless, attachment to the EU has increased since

2007, but so did national attachment. 'New Europeans by openness alone' are more likely

to feel attachment to the EU than 'New Europeans by ancestry alone' and 'Old Europeans'.

Europeans’ strength of attachment to their own country (of residence) is far stronger

than that to their other favoured countries: there is no exception to this pattern, which is

seen in all Member States and among all socio-demographic categories. Both types of

'New Europeans' feel stronger attachment to their other favoured countries than 'Old

Europeans' do, but all three types of Europeans are still most attached to their own

country.

A general pattern emerged regarding respondents’ attachment to specific countries other

than their country of residence, reflecting common historical-cultural (language) factors

or merely geographical proximity. The top three reasons for attachment to other

countries are spending holidays there, followed by having close friends and close

relatives who live in that other country. 'New Europeans by ancestry' mostly mention

holidays and close relatives abroad, while 'New Europeans by openness' more frequently

mention having friends living there as reasons for attachment to another country.

SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER 346 NEW EUROPEANS

104

Turning to feelings of belonging to a group, seven in ten Europeans feel that they belong

to a majority group and almost one in ten feel they belong to a minority group: similar

proportions are seen when it comes to the way respondents feel they are perceived by

others. 'New Europeans by ancestry alone' are also more likely to feel that they belong to

a minority group than 'New Europeans by openness alone' or 'Old Europeans'.

Europeans’ own feelings and their feelings about other people’s perception of reasons to

belong to a specific group emphasise the importance of language, culture, values and

lifestyle. There are no differences in this respect between 'Old Europeans' and 'New

Europeans'.

Both national identity and European identity were explored. By far the most important

element that makes up Europeans’ national identity is to be born in their country. This is

followed by four equally important factors: mastering the national language, feeling of

that nationality, sharing cultural traditions and exercising citizens’ rights, for example

voting. In general, national identity seems to have changed since spring 2009 in the

sense that the emphasis on the more elusive, subjective concepts (feeling, sharing,

believing) is diminishing, whereas there is a growing emphasis on the more objective,

concrete concepts (birthplaces of respondents and their parents, place of upbringing,

language skills and civil rights).

'New Europeans' attach less importance to being born in their country as a determinant

of national identity and more on exercising citizens’ rights than 'Old Europeans'. 'New

Europeans by openness' most often mention the sharing of cultural traditions and feeling

of the appropriate nationality as important aspects of national identity, whereas 'New

Europeans by ancestry' identify mastering the national language of their country of

residence.

Elements that make up European identity are clearly the single currency and democratic

values, particularly in the euro area and in Member States that have joined the EU since

2004. These are followed at some distance by geography, common culture and shared

history. Six in ten Europeans say that being European is important to them, the same as

in spring 2009.

Regarding 'Old Europeans' and 'New Europeans', there are no significant differences in

the context of European identity, the only exception being that 'New Europeans' consider

democratic values to be more important as an element of European identity than 'Old

Europeans' do.

Overall, the most widespread type of connection with another country is through

personal relationships (close relatives or friends that come from or live in another

country). However, the other types of connectedness with other countries are not

insignificant. Regardless of their type of connection across borders, 'New Europeans'’

attitudes and opinions differ from those of 'Old Europeans' in the sense that they are

much more attached to countries other than their own, and more tempted to move

abroad in the coming years. However, when it comes to identity – national and European

- the differences between 'New Europeans' and 'Old Europeans' are relatively limited and

sometimes even insignificant.

EUROBAROMETER SPECIAL N° 346 TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

Between the 12th of March and the 1st of April 2010, TNS Opinion & Social, a consortium created between TNS plc and TNS opinion, carried out the wave 73.3 of the EUROBAROMETER, on request of the EUROPEAN COMMISSION, Directorate-General for Communication, “Research and Political Analysis”. The SPECIAL EUROBAROMETER N° 346 is part of the wave 73.3 and covers the population of the respective nationalities of the European Union Member States, resident in each of the Member States and aged 15 years and over. The basic sample design applied in all states is a multi-stage, random (probability) one. In each country, a number of sampling points was drawn with probability proportional to population size (for a total coverage of the country) and to population density.

In order to do so, the sampling points were drawn systematically from each of the "administrative regional units", after stratification by individual unit and type of area. They thus represent the whole territory of the countries surveyed according to the EUROSTAT NUTS II (or equivalent) and according to the distribution of the resident population of the respective nationalities in terms of metropolitan, urban and rural areas. In each of the selected sampling points, a starting address was drawn, at random. Further addresses (every Nth address) were selected by standard "random route" procedures, from the initial address. In each household, the respondent was drawn, at random (following the "closest birthday rule"). All interviews were conducted face-to-face in people's homes and in the appropriate national language. As far as the data capture is concerned, CAPI (Computer Assisted Personal Interview) was used in those countries where this technique was available.

For each country a comparison between the sample and the universe was carried out. The Universe description was derived from Eurostat population data or from national statistics offices. For all countries surveyed, a national weighting procedure, using marginal and intercellular weighting, was carried out based on this Universe description. In all countries, gender, age, region and size of locality were introduced in the iteration procedure. For international weighting (i.e. EU averages), TNS Opinion & Social applies the official population figures as provided by EUROSTAT or national statistic offices. The total population figures for input in this post-weighting procedure are listed above. Readers are reminded that survey results are estimations, the accuracy of which, everything being equal, rests upon the sample size and upon the observed percentage. With samples of about 1,000 interviews, the real percentages vary within the following confidence limits:

Observed percentages 10% or 90% 20% or 80% 30% or 70% 40% or 60% 50%

Confidence limits ± 1.9 points ± 2.5 points ± 2.7 points ± 3.0 points ± 3.1 points
