Summary/Abstract: The aim of the project was to determine what Czech European policy elites think of the European Union and the Czech Republic’s role therein. An on-line questionnaire was sent to 440 potential respondents. Answers were received in 168 cases, of which 124 questionnaires were fully completed and 44 partially completed. Elites rate Czech European policy negatively. The Czech Republic is not capable of either formulating or asserting its interests in the EU. However, they expect an improvement in this situation over the next ten years.
