Abstract


Considering a broad spectrum of cultural activities, this study aims to deepening European countries differences in Cultural Participation taking into account micro, meso and macro determinants. For this aim, we used the large dataset provided by the Special Eurobarometer survey n.399 collected in the European countries. The main goals are the following: 1) to outline a multidimensional view of Cultural Participation; 2) to analyse, through a multilevel approach, the determinants of Cultural Participation of European citizens, considering the relationships with both socio-demographic characteristics of people and other relevant contextual features.
