The article titled “4 factors driving anti - establishment sentiment in Europe” delves into the anti - establishment sentiment in Europe. The failure of Italy's constitutional reform referendum, along with Brexit and Trump's victory, shows the public's anger at the political establishment. With upcoming elections in the Netherlands, France, and Germany, 2017 may be as politically disruptive as 2016. Pew Research Center surveys identify four factors driving this sentiment: economic anxieties, as Europeans are pessimistic about both the current economy and the next generation's economic prospects; security fears, with terrorism being a major concern and many linking it to the refugee influx; cultural unease, as many Europeans are uncomfortable with the growing social diversity; and a lack of confidence in political institutions, with traditional parties losing support and anti - establishment parties, both on the right and left, gaining strength, and a decline in faith in the EU.
