ASSESSING ACCESSION

Eurasianet.es is a permanent virtual meeting place for researchers dealing with the countries in the Euroasiatic region (Central and Eastern Europe, the Balkans, the Caucasus and the Former Soviet Republics). This project has been developed entirely by the Political Science and Administration Department of the Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia (UNED) and financed by the Spanish Minsitry of Education and Culture.

Eurasianet.es gathers dozens of researchers from different countries and different fields as History, Political Science, Law, Economy, International Relations or Philology. Among other objectives, Eurasianet.es tries to support the international expansion of the researchers by establishing a more fluent contact among them and the Institutions they work for. In Eurasianet.es you will find qualified information about the countries you might be interested in; the research lines and publications of the registered users; the contacts in the Institutions they work for –academic, cultural, political or economical; information about events, conferences and congresses as well as a vast number –more than 500- of resources of information from these countries.
