Abstract

The identification of the existence of a geography of discontent has been frequently interpreted as one of the most dramatic consequences of the surge of interregional disparities in recent decades, both within and outside the European Union (EU). This chapter aims at contributing to this burgeoning field of research by understanding the role played by urbanisation in mediating the relationship between inequalities and the geography of societal discontent. By pooling data sourced from several Eurobarometer waves, this chapter shows how urbanisation can mitigate the negative effects of inequalities on discontent in highly peripheral regions.
