Opinion: Eurotrashing euroscepticism

Author suggest that academics, thinkers and European leaders need more engagement with EU critical groups, to understand and unpack their views and to look for ways to try and bring them back into a process: most Eurosceptics have not yet reached the point of rejecting any form of European cooperation or integration.

This doesn’t have to mean accepting all that they say or want, but it does mean acknowledging their legitimate concerns and critiques. The process might have to change, but if it produces something more stable and with wider legitimacy, then that can only be a good thing.
