Why Wolfgang Schäuble should not become EU Commissioner! July 4, 2009

It seems as if my predictions about who will become the new German EU Commissioner were wrong. Spiegel Online reports today that Chancellor Merkel wants to nominate Wolfgang Schäuble, the current German Interior Minister, for the post in Brussels. This is quite a bad choice especially if he aims to get the Justice and Home [...]

“Walled In!” Germany’s inner border July 4, 2009

Pretty cool animation. Nice example how to make history more interesting and how computer animation can be used for educational purposes. Find more details about the project on DW World: For 28 years, a nearly insurmountable barrier kept people from fleeing East Germany. But then, the dramatic night of November 9, 1989, saw the fall of [...]

Who will be the next Romanian Commissioner? June 18, 2009

As the (rather temporary) buzz around the EP elections started to diminish, the next big question is popping up in various circles, from political parties headquarters to newspapers and blogs (see the concerted blog action here, here and here): who will be each country’s nominee for the Commissioner position? With the institutional framework governing […]

Stop Barroso - too little too late? June 17, 2009

Stop Barroso is a nice campaign by the greens with a very funny video (via Anyone but Barroso) . “In the absence of a firm agenda from him, perhaps we take this as his programme for government?” asks The European Citizen blog. Although I fully support the campaign and the idea behind it I partly agree [...]

After several months of rather difficult diplomatic negotiations (see for example here and here), the draft text for the Irish is now available - Read the draft text here (pdf).

Thinking about the next European Commission June 16, 2009

I just came back from the Th!nk About It event in Rotterdam. The event was quite a success and we even made it into the Financial Times! Bloggers from almost all 27 member states were present so we came up with the idea of a “concerted EU blogging action”! The aim is to put together [...]

Blogging about the European Parliament elections June 8, 2009

The EP elections 2009 are finally over! Results are in and being the author of a political EU blog I probably should be writing an election analysis including: … a critical look at the disappointing turnout figures and the reasons behind it. … a sharp analysis of the results in different countries preferably in a comparative manner.
