Abstract

Do Europeans think about EU sanctions against member states and third countries in the same way? The EU regularly uses economic sanctions against third countries to promote democracy. Yet today with democracy being challenged within its borders by Hungary and Poland, the EU also resorts to coercive measures to react to norm violations among its members. Taking the case of Poland, we investigate public reactions to EU intentions to impose sanctions against EU members, non-members and Poland. Using a survey experiment in Poland, we study factors influencing how respondents think about EU sanctions, and whether the sanctions target matters.
