N1 - This working paper presents a first description of some major findings from surveys carried out in seven countries (France, the United Kingdom, Hungary, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway and Sweden) in September 2005. The paper concentrates on describing national variations in public views on farm animal welfare in general and related shopping practices. We will later analyse how national variations can be explained by differences on the consumer side, in provisioning systems, regulatory arrangements, and social mobilization. We will also explore the conditions for consumer involvement in and responses to market initiatives to animal welfare.
