Abstract: The European Union is dominated by permanent change and diversity so that public opinion regarding different EU-related issues follows a similar trend. Within this continually changing context, there are two important interconnected things to be considered: first, public opinion towards the EU represents the core of political and academic debates over the present and future of the European integration. Second, the favor-able attitudes and opinions towards the EU have increasingly changed into disapproving or sceptic attitudes in the last years. Although there are studies on Eurosceptic attitudes and their causes in almost all EU mem-ber states, only a few of them offer a clear overview of this issue. The aim of this paper is to ex-amine the theoretical foundations of Euroscepticism and to provide insightful information to be used in fu-ture studies.
