PS 342: Politics of China

Find Government Websites & Publications using Google

One way is to use Google Advanced Search

• Enter your topic's keywords and then, in the Search by Site or Domain box, type: your country's country domain extension. 
  • However, you may also need to find the government domain abbreviation, if there is one.
    • For Francophone countries that is".gouv", e.g. .gouv.sn for Senegal
    • For Spanish-speaking countries it's ".gob", e.g. .gob.sv for El Salvador
    • For English-speaking countries, or where English is one of the official languages, or for English-language pages from countries with non-Roman alphabets, try ".gov", e.g. .gov.vn for Viet Nam
• In the Language box, pull down the menu and select English
  • Some documents will only be in the language of that country, and thus must be searched for in that language.
