The Eurobarometer series is a unique cross-national and cross-temporal survey program conducted on behalf of the European Commission. These surveys regularly monitor public opinion in the European Union (EU) member countries and consist of standard modules and special topic modules. The standard modules address attitudes towards European unification, institutions and policies, measurements for general socio-political orientations, as well as respondent and household demographics. The special topic modules address such topics as agriculture, education, natural environment and resources, public health, public safety and crime, and science and technology. This round of Eurobarometer surveys covers the following special topics: (1) Development, Cooperation and Aid, (2) Animal Welfare, and (3) the Tobacco Black Market. Respondents' opinions were collected regarding importance of aid to developing countries, awareness on development aid, the focus of development, poverty, and their personal involvement in helping developing countries. Respondents were also asked about their understanding of animal welfare, their views on farm animals, animal-friendly food products, and international standards on animal welfare. Additional questions on respondent's opinions on black market tobacco and its associated problems, and organized crime were asked. Demographic and other background information collected includes age, gender, nationality, marital status, occupation, age when respondent stopped full-time education, household composition, difficulties in paying bills, self-assessed level in society, self-assessed social class, and Internet use. In addition, country-specific data includes type and size of locality, region of residence, and language of interview (select countries only).
