International Connections Project, 1967 (ICPSR 5504)

Summary

This study contains data on attitudes of parliamentarians in Denmark, Norway, and Sweden toward integration and political and economic unity in Western Europe in 1967. The parliamentarians were asked if they thought Britain and the Scandinavian nations should seek some kind of affiliation with the European Economic Community (EEC), what kind of affiliation they favored for Denmark, Norway, and Sweden, and what level of political integration they favored for Western Europe. Other variables probe the parliamentarians' feelings about increasing the political unity of Western Europe, France's official attitude toward the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), the effects of further integration in Western Europe on political relations with the United States, the effects of improvements in relations with Eastern Europe on the progress toward political unity in Western Europe, and the postwar trend toward increased cooperation between the Nordic nations and its compatibility with integration in Western Europe. Additional variables probe the parliamentarians' opinions of the Nordic Council, and the ways in which their attendance at the Council of Europe's meetings had affected their outlook on European affairs and Nordic affairs, and enhanced their party position in their constituencies.
