Websites
Below are some suggested:
- Directories of political news, opinion, and research on the web, and
- Sites I find particularly relevant to international development
(Also, I link to many, many more websites in the political science research guides. To narrow to POSC guides only, select Political Science under Filter by Subject.)
- The Brookings InstitutionThis nonpartisan research institute publishes highly useful policy briefs and reports on international affairs.
- Foreign PolicyOnline version of the oft-cited print magazine about international affairs.
- Politics Section of IntuteIntute, (formerly SOSIG, Social Sciences Information Gateway) is aimed at researchers and practitioners in the social sciences, and offers a browsable and searchable listing of high quality internet resources.
