Campaigning for Europe 2009 - Parties, Campaigns, Mass Media and the
European Parliamentary Elections 2009
The conference will take place on October 7th until 9th in Landau (Pfalz),
Gemany. It will be sponsored by the Fritz-Thyssen-Foundation and hosted by
the Institute of Communication Psychology/Media Education and the
