摘要：The article discusses the outcomes of elections to the European Parliament in Austria in June 2004. Attitudes of relevant Austrian parties towards the European integration project are briefly discussed and placed on the theoretical scale that ranges from “Hard Euroscepticism” and “Identity Europeanism”. The presented outcomes of the elections are put into the general context of the Austrian party system and voters’ preferences since the middle 1980s. Special attention is given to the phenomenon of Hans-Peter Martin’s populist list that won almost 14 % of the vote. Also, relatively low voter turnout is discussed. The Austrian example is very suitable for theorizing European elections as elections of less voters´ attention that is conceptualized at the end of the article.
