Special Eurobarometer 413: Future of Europe

The Future of Europe report presents a snapshot of the way Europeans perceived the EU and its future direction in early 2014. It begins by considering the EU's present circumstances, its main assets and the main challenges it faces. Then it asks whether children in today’s EU can expect an easier or more difficult life than people from older generations, and whether the EU is likely to be more or less influential than other world powers at the end of this decade. Finally, the focus shifts towards planning for the Europe of 2020, looking at where the policy-making emphasis should lie, whether there should be more or less decision-making at EU level, and support for further European integration in three specific areas. #####The results by volumes are distributed as follows: * Volume A: Countries * Volume AA: Groups of countries * Volume A' (AP): Trends * Volume AA' (AAP): Trends of groups of countries * Volume B: EU/socio-demographics * Volume B' (BP) : Trends of EU/ socio-demographics * Volume C: Country/socio-demographics ---- Researchers may also contact GESIS - Leibniz Institute for the Social Sciences: [https://www.gesis.org/eurobarometer](https://www.gesis.org/eurobarometer)
