Resources for European Politics

For researching my specialist topic European Politics,I first of all looked at all the major news websites, as well as news websites with their sole focus on the EU.

Of course,The Guardian,as well as the BBC website have background and in-depth coverage about EU issues.

More specific EU news websites are EuroNews.net,website of broadcast channel Euronews,therefore providing a lot of online video journalism; EU Observer,which provides news on all European Union issues,the agenda and press reviews of EU press coverage.The site also offers a daily newsletter for the EU headlines of the day.

Speaking of press reviews - I discovered something very useful on the website of the Bundeszentrale fuer politische Bildung (Central Office for Political Education),that provides a daily EU press review service by newsletter in English,French or German of all main European newspapers with links to original articles. Particularily useful if you don't feel too confident with all languages spoken within the European Union. You can also read the press reviews and more reflections and articles around European topics, as well as a complete media index of all European newspapers on their new website.

Another site dedicated to EU news is the alledgedly "independent",EuropeanVoice which provides some news for free,but wants readers to subscribe and pay for background information.

More on blogs around EU issues and related opinions and controversies in the next post. As I got myself a new layout,I can also eventually post all mentioned links in the link list on the right.
