“…Most views are that the outcome of the referenduma reflection of "British exceptionalism" will cost heavily economically, mainly to Britain. The EU would feel some knock-on costs as well, with the EU reduced weight on the international political grounds (Butler et al 2016). Brexit will certainly change both the internal and external equilibrium, with some EU non-euro area member states such as Poland, Denmark, and Sweden, but also other 'pre-ins', feeling they will lose grip in shaping euro zone policies (Oliver, 2016), especially against an enhanced role of Germany and the other euro area member states.…”

The history of European integration has been characterized by several 'stops-and-goes' with considerable support on political grounds. In this chapter, we discuss the role of European integration for the future of the EU-UK relations. Integration, consistent with the idea of 'completing' the European Monetary Union (hence, a 'Genuine Economic and Monetary Union'-GEMU), will have the obvious consequence of affecting the UK as well and the future of its negotiations with the EU. Provided that European integration worked in the past, the net benefits of staying out of the EU ex-ante may be different from the same benefits expost, particularly in the likely scenario the Union will have to 'comprehensively' move towards a GEMU to safeguard its integrity.

“…Given the unprecedented nature of the event, it is not surprising that a burgeoning literature has quickly developed to understand its causes and consequences. Most of these analyses have focused on explaining the Brexit vote (Hobolt 2016;Jensen and Snaith 2016;Vasilopoulou 2016;Clarke, Goodwin, and Whiteley 2017), estimating the political and economic consequences of Brexit for the UK (Dhingra et al 2017;Gamble 2018;Van Reenen 2016) and exploring the way it has been framed in British political debates (Bulmer and Quaglia 2018;Butler, Jensen, and Snaith 2016;Vasilopoulou and Keith 2019). A common conclusion within this literature is the high degree of contestability in the definition of a negotiating position for the British government.…”

The Brexit referendum in June 2016 marked a critical point for European integration and has quickly attracted attention from scholars. However, the literature so far has focused on the UK and the EU level, neglecting the symmetric risk exposures and the diverging views around Brexit within the Member states. This article aims at contributing to filling this gap by analyzing to what extent the attention paid to Brexit differs across parliaments in a multilevel setting and whether parties emphasize the same issue across different levels? It relies on a unique database of parliamentary questions in the Belgian (regional and federal) parliaments between 2013 and 2017 and combines social network analysis and a loglinear modeling to analyze how Brexit has been framed and discussed in Belgium.
