Consequences of European bi-national relations: • European identification • European solidarity

MEASURES identification as a European : ‘On a scale of 0 to 10, please tell us how much you agree or disagree with the following statement’: ‘I feel European’ European transnational solidarity : ‘The government in this country proposes a special contribution to assist another region in a European country that has experienced a natural catastrophe. Please indicate how much of your yearly earnings you would be prepared to donate to help assist economically this region/country’ ranging from 0 (none) to 10 (a great deal)
