  • As Europe emerges from the pandemic, it will be crucial for policymakers to understand the drivers of optimism and pessimism in order to address the challenges arising from potentially growing disillusionment. Evidence shows that high levels of pessimism can undermine social cohesion and the legitimacy of the established political system.

  • As Europe emerges from the pandemic, it will be crucial for policymakers to understand the drivers of optimism and pessimism in order to address the challenges arising from potentially growing disillusionment. Evidence shows that high levels of pessimism can undermine social cohesion and the legitimacy of the established political system.
  • Age appears to have the greatest net effect on social optimism: young people were found to have the happiest outlook, in middle age there was a dip in positivity, then optimism increased again among older people.
  • Trust in institutions and GDP growth rates were found to be key country-level drivers of optimism. Evidence highlights that facilitating access to high-quality public services can help to (re)build trust in institutions.
  • Citizens who feel their voice counts are not only more optimistic about their own future but also about the society in which they live. Initiatives that involve citizens in the debate about the recovery process, such as the Conference on the Future of Europe, will be critical going forward.
  • Findings point to the important role a person’s place in the labour market and their financial situation plays in their perception about the future. As emphasised by EU leaders in the 2021 Porto Declaration, a shift in policy focus from protecting jobs to creating new opportunities will be required to improve the EU’s employment situation.

Jau daugiau nei dešimtmetį didesnėje ES dalyje didėja netikrumas dėl ateities. Daugelis žmonių mano, kad visuomenė žlunga, ir tai skatina bendrą pesimizmo jausmą.

Jau daugiau nei dešimtmetį didesnėje ES dalyje didėja netikrumas dėl ateities. Daugelis žmonių mano, kad visuomenė žlunga, ir tai skatina bendrą pesimizmo jausmą. Ar yra ryšys tarp didėjančio prieš įsisteigimą kovojančių partijų populiarumo ir didėjančio pesimizmo? Šios neigiamos nuotaikos gali neigiamai paveikti atskirų valstybių narių politinį klimatą ir pakenkti Europos projekto teisėtumui. Šioje ataskaitoje nurodomi pagrindiniai žmonių požiūrio į ateitį veiksniai ir nagrinėjama, ar optimistai ir pesimistai skiriasi savo socialinėmis, ekonominėmis, kultūrinėmis ir politinėmis savybėmis. Siekiant ištirti, kokiu mastu optimistai ir pesimistai elgiasi ir jaučiasi skirtingai, ataskaitoje apžvelgiami jų socialiniai ir ekonominiai bei socialiniai politiniai profiliai. Galiausiai nagrinėjama, kaip skiriasi optimizmo lygis valstybėse narėse, atsižvelgiant į šalies kontekstą. Analizėse naudojami duomenys, gauti prieš COVID-19 pandemiją, o rezultatai rodo, kaip svarbu stebėti, kaip keičiasi žmonių požiūris į ateitį atsigavimo po krizės metu.
