description This dataset contains the frequency of thousands of terms (or keywords) used by political parties in the posts they have published in their Facebook pages. The data set is composed by 20,317 keywords from posts published by 279 European political parties from 28 countries and spans 5 years, from January 2019 to December 2023. Due to the large diversity of languages in the analysed countries, we have translated every post into English to compile this dataset. We also provide an open-access web portal: EU Political Barometer, in which a wide variety of analyses can be carried out without the need of working directly with the dataset. This allows scientists without a data analysis background to access the information embedded within the dataset. The information included in the dataset may be of value for social scientists that wants to understand the evolution of the topics employed by political parties in Europe based on a widely used political communication tool such as Facebook.
