Die vorliegende Studie analysiert die Konsequenzen der EU-Osterweiterung nicht auf der Ebene von politischen Institutionen oder ökonomischen Rahmenbedingungen, sondern versucht, sozialpsychologische Auswirkungen genauer zu betrachten. Dabei stehen Desintegration, Ängste und Bedrohungserleben als potentielle Katalysatoren rechter Einstellungen im Zentrum des Interesses. Repräsentative Studien in Deutschland und in den Grenzregionen Polens und der Tschechischen Republik erlauben eine international vergleichende Analyse der Situation aus der Sicht der betroffenen Bürger.

Many people in the Western world are concerned that the social fabric of societies is fraying. This book constitutes the first-of-its-kind systematic account of social cohesion, from theory through methodology to empirical evidence. Readers are introduced to the academically developed Social Cohesion Radar of Bertelsmann Stiftung, a globally active non-governmental organization. The Social Cohesion Radar defines and measures cohesion as characterized by three core aspects: resilient social relations, positive emotional connectedness between people and the community, and a pronounced focus on the common good. Using high-quality academic and institutional data sources, the Social Cohesion Radar provides insights into the level and development of social cohesion over a period of almost 25 years internationally, among 34 European Union and OECD members, and regionally, among the 16 federal states of Germany. It further provides insights into what influences cohesion, and what cohesion is good for. One of the key findings is that social cohesion promotes a happier life for everyone.

In recent years, it has often been claimed that social cohesion, the social fabric of our societies, is decaying. The present report undertakes an empirical exploration of the validity of this alarmist view and considers the importance of social cohesion for citizens’ assessments of their quality of life. Drawing on data from the three most recent rounds of Eurofound’s European Quality of Life Survey (EQLS) – carried out in 2007, 2011 and 2016 – the report sets out to assess the current level of social cohesion in the EU and its evolution over time. It focuses on groups that are at risk of experiencing low social cohesion and on societal characteristics that contribute to creating cohesion. Overall, the findings reveal that in addition to the predictable drivers of social cohesion – prosperity, a generous and inclusive welfare system, high levels of education and low unemployment – digital skills has emerged as a critical driver, leading to more cohesive societies and thereby happier citizens in the EU.
