Palgrave Studies in European Political Sociology addresses contemporary
themes in the field of Political Sociology. Over recent years, attention has
turned increasingly to processes of Europeanization and globalization and
the social and political spaces that are opened by them. These processes
comprise both institutional-constitutional change and new dynamics of
social transnationalism. Europeanization and globalization are also about
changing power relations as they affect people’s lives, social networks and
forms of mobility.
The Palgrave Studies in European Political Sociology series addresses
linkages between regulation, institution building and the full range of
societal repercussions at local, regional, national, European and global
level, and will sharpen understanding of changing patterns of attitudes
and behaviours of individuals and groups, the political use of new rights
and opportunities by citizens, new conflict lines and coalitions, societal
interactions and networking, and shifting loyalties and solidarity within
and across the European space.
We welcome proposals from across the spectrum of Political Soci-
ology and Political Science, on dimensions of citizenship; political atti-
tudes and values; political communication and public spheres; states,
communities, governance structure and political institutions; forms of
political participation; populism and the radical right; and democracy and
democratization.

European politics has been my passion and focus of research for the last
decade, as I have observed a growing mismatch between the increas-
ingly transnational flow of ideas, and decision-making processes still
anchored in national governments. The book is obviously European in
its substance, but also in its process. I moved to Brussels shortly after
the 2014 European elections, in the midst of the increasing politicisa-
tion of EU affairs. While it was a fruitful moment for the rise of nation-
alist parties, such as the UKIP in the United Kingdom or the Front
National in France, and (back then) political outsiders such as Podemos
in Spain and Movimento 5 Stelle in Italy, the politicisation of the EU
also renewed my interest in European politics and inspired my further
research. I witnessed with concern the mainstream response to the politi-
cisation of European politics, as if most criticisms to the EU’s status
quo were inherently ‘Eurosceptic’. As an aspiring social scientist, I felt it
was important and timely to emphasise an academic agenda that does not
assume that the politicisation of European politics is necessarily a threat
to the European project, but instead is constitutive of it.
One of the aspects I value about academic research is that it is always
an intellectual team effort. As such, this book could not have been done
without many friends and colleagues, whose contributions to my intel-
lectual growth have been immense, and who have also enriched me
as a person. Words cannot do justice to express my profound grati-
tude to numerous people, but nonetheless I wish to highlight a few

names. The ideas expressed throughout this book are to a large extent
influenced by Luis Bouza García, with whom we have developed fasci-
nating research avenues. Our friendship and (very) extensive joint work,
including the collaboration within the Jean Monnet network OpenEUDe-
bate, continues to be a source of inspiration. I would also like to thank
my Master studies’ professors Caroline Pauwels, Luciano Morganti and
Jan Loisen from the Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB). Without them I
would not have started my Ph.D. dissertation at the Université Libre de
Bruxelles (ULB), which represents the basis for this book. At the ULB, I
am grateful to the members of my Ph.D. committee, Ramona Coman
and François Foret, my Ph.D. supervisor François Heinderyckx, and my
teammate Jan Beyer, whose contributions have been of great (European)
value(s) to my work in general, and this book in particular.
I continued pursuing my European calling when I embarked on my
next endeavour as a postdoctoral researcher at the Vrije Universiteit (VU)
Amsterdam, in the context of the Horizon 2020 RECONNECT project
‘Reconciling Europe with its Citizens through Democracy and the Rule of
Law’.1 My deep gratitude to Ben Crum, who has been a wonderful pillar
of support to my academic career since my arrival at the VU, whose polit-
ical theory insights have been truly valuable, and with whom I continue
to learn and enjoy working together. My sincere thanks to all the friends
and colleagues that participated in the tailored VU Amsterdam workshop
held in February 2020, whose input and feedback elevated the quality
of the different chapters that compose this book. Thanks to Jan Pieter
Beetz, Thijs Bogers, Sinan Çankaya, Rein Koetsier, Stephen Haigh, Noah
Schmitt, Özlem Terzi and Wolfgang Wagner.
This adventure could also not have been concluded without the crit-
ical advice and enthusiastic backing of Hans-Jörg Trenz, co-editor of the
Palgrave series on European Political Sociology and external jury member
of my Ph.D. defence, whose insightful academic work has informed my
thinking for this book. Thanks as well to Maximilian Conrad, Catherine
De Vries, Niels Gheyle, Louisa Parks and Gabriel Siles-Brügge for their
constructive feedback on the book and general encouragement, which
has meant a lot to me. I would also like to thank everyone who accepted
