About the project:
The study conducted by IPA experts is based on Polish case studies compared with the experience of other EU countries. The research focused on:
- sociological analysis of the election to the European Parliament;
- analysis of the electoral law to the European Parliament and its impact on elections;
- analysis of the political debate before the elections to the European Parliament;
- the role of the media in the elections to the European Parliament;
- the role of NGOs in the election process;
- populism in the elections to the European Parliament.
The project is undertaken with the support of the European Union: Support for organisations active at European level in the field of active European citizenship in the framework of the Europe for Citizens’ Programme.
