Abstract

The main factors stimulating the Welsh people behaviour during the British membership in the European Union referendum in 2016, i.e. voting for leaving the EU structures by the United Kingdom are set out in this article. Based on the assumption that possibilities of social, economic and political development in the frames of the European Union would be unavailable for the whole of the UK after Brexit implementation, an author draws vision of immediate future of Wales, as peripheral region with small demographic and economic potential, strongly dependent on decisions of decisive head centre in London.
