A Europhile is a person who is fond of, admires, or loves European culture, society, history, food, music etc.[1][2] In its narrower, and often pejorative sense, the term europhile is most often used in Europe itself in a political context, that is, in the context of an uncritical attitude towards the European Union. It refers to organizations and individuals with explicitly unquestioning pro-European attitudes, as opposed to Eurosceptics and Europhobes.
