EA's New Partner: Welcome to the Outpost!

We're excited to hear about the official launch of Outpost, a blog on Irish-American relations by our colleagues at University College Dublin's Clinton Institute. Martin, Geoff and team explain:

The purpose of this blog is to offer dynamic and wide-ranging coverage of American politics, culture and society from Irish and European perspectives. Ireland is situated in an unique position to foster a greater understanding of America’s role in the world, it’s relationship with Europe and how the United States is perceived by both the media and public.

Working within this frame Outpost will publish innovative analysis concerning significant diplomatic, economic and cultural developments. This will include expert commentary on the continuing US presence in Northern Ireland. As Ireland enters a new economic framework traditional discourses require reassesment. The Outpost will consistently address shifting paradigms in economics and politics in an innovative and engaging manner.

Recent posts include reports on the closure of Guantánamo, Obama's healthcare plans, the Irish peace process, and PIGS. Visit the Outpost.
