EUBUSINESS is a research project that aims at exploring how the political opinions of economic actors in small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs) are impacted by the European Union’s Next Generation EU (NGEU) funds.

Research

Our mission is to evaluate the ways in which EU market governance policies, in particular, the NGEU funds influence the political opinions and behaviors of small and medium business owners and employees.

About

We hope to offer a grasp of the funds’ influence in various contexts by comparing Spain, Italy, and Germany and develop and test a novel theory that explains how common market governance influences political system legitimation and support in the EU.

Team

The project brings together social scientists with diverse expertise who share interest in the study of EU studies and political economy. The team includes senior researchers and doctoral fellows.
