Abstract: According to BRUNETTI ET AL. (Swiss Journal of Economics and Statistics, 134/1,1998) economic interests are of crucial importance for individual behaviour in popular votes on European integration in Switzerland. Compensation of losers might be a feasible strategy in creating majorities for international economic integration. However, there is only weak empirical evidence for this hypotheses. Rather, behaviour in popular votes is mainly driven by non-economic motives. Economic calculus is only of marginal importance. The empirical analysis is based on the 'Swiss Labour Market Survey' 1998.
