Dear Colleagues:

I have been asked to write a research note for the journal
*International Organization* on IR-related research resources
on the Internet and World-Wide Web. The research note will attempt
to cover general social science resources, academic and professional
sites, government sites, and most of the standard issue-areas
(e.g., international organization; international security; IPE;
environment; culture/gender/critical studies, etc) that would be
of interest to readers of *International Organization*.

I will also be including a section on methodological and
pedagogical issues concerning Internet communications, and will
be reviewing web-pages used for courses.

Obviously such a researh note can not hope to be comprehensive. Instead,
I am going to examine critically some of the better sites in each
area, and then provide additional lists of sites in footnotes or
in an appendix.

*I am seeking and very much encourage any input people may have
on sites they think should be reviewed, on areas that should be covered,
and on their general perspectives about research on the Internet --
particulary from those who have used the Internet as a teaching
aid.*

I will be researching and writing the research note over the course
of the summer and into the fall, and can be reached at the
following email address: deibert@unixg.ubc.ca

Thanks,

Ron
