2014 Avrupa Parlamentosu Seçimleri

Abstract

1979’dan beri her beş yılda bir yapılan Avrupa Parlamentosu seçimleri, seçilmiş bir Avrupa Birliği kurumunun oluşması ve Avrupa Birliği siyasetine etkisi bakımından çok önemlidir. 2019’a kadar görevde kalacak olan Avrupa Parlamentosu, 22-25 Mayıs 2014 tarihinde yapılan seçimlerde oluşmuştur. 2014 Avrupa Parlamentosu seçimleri hem Avrupa Komisyonu Başkanı’nın seçimine etkisi hem de borç krizi sürecinde yapılan ilk seçim olması nedeniyle önemli bir seçim olarak kabul edilmiştir. Bu kapsamda çalışmada öncelikle, 2014 seçimlerinin katılım boyutu ele alınmıştır. Sonraki bölümde, seçim sonuçları detaylı bir şekilde incelenmiştir. Son olarak, seçimlerde öne çıkan euroseptik partilerin/grupların durumu gösterilmiştir. Seçimlerin belirgin sonuçları olarak düşük katılım oranı ve euroseptik oyların artışı vurgulanmıştır
