EUROSCEPTISIM, AN INCREASING PHENOMENON AMONG THE MEMBER STATES. ROAD TO BREXIT
Journal Title: Revista Romana de Geografie Politica - Year 2016, Vol 18, Issue 2
Abstract
In the context of a “shaking Europe”, the Eurosceptic voice sounds more loudly than ever. Known as a highly Eurosceptic member, the United Kingdom, through the lens of the rising political power of the UK Independence Party (UKIP), doubts the European Union’s plan regarding a strong and prosperous Union and it sees itself better off out of the Union after more than 40 years of rather tensed membership. This article tackles the UK’s Euroscepticism in the light of the UK-EU membership referendum in 2016, also known as Brexit.
