A unique contribution
EI always includes an interesting mix of essays worth your attention.
Insular Boy and Girls Club, Mostly
There are some articles that are a drunken collection random prejudices of the editors, see “Is Europe’s Future Northern?” By Alastair Benn. Many other articles are the lifeless wittering of some old duffer who has been locked away in academia for far too long and has lost all imaginative and emotional function. Some articles and podcasts are genuinely interesting. Comments on articles are verboten, because why risk puncturing the refined atmosphere of self-infatuation? The best that can be said is that EI avoids the worst excesses of the woke and anti-woke angry brigades, which in itself is an extremely rare thing these days and a blessed relief - that in itself if worth the trouble of bothering with the often uninspiring content.

Excellent site.
Brimming with fine ideas and unique viewpoints
Excellent, balanced analysis
I value the moderate, well-researched interpretation of these articles
Brilliant app
Really good app that I only discovered by accident. Love the mix and range of articles, linked podcast is also superb. Highly recommended
Fantastic App
The only thing I would like to have adjusted is the spacing of the ENGELSBERG IDEAS heading (Stand: 25.03.2026). When setting words in capital letters they need to be spaced (tracking adjustment ) accordingly. Thanks for this great app and content!
Good app with potential
The app is great but unfortunately hyperlinks to other EI articles open in the default browser, rather than inside the app. The save feature is useful and so is the auto-bookmarking.
