Description

The European Yearbook of Minority Issues provides a critical and timely review of contemporary developments in minority-majority relations in Europe. It combines analysis, commentary and documentation in relation to conflict management, international legal developments and domestic legislation affecting minorities in Europe. In this volume, the Thematic Articles section addresses such topical and controversial issues as indigenous peoples in the context of climate change and perspectives for the integration of 'old' and 'new' minorities. The International Developments section offers a deeper understanding of the international organizations' approach to such pan-European challenges and developments as minority issues in the criminal justice system; cultural activities and facilities, including the media; participation, citizenship and trans frontier exchanges. The section on National Developments presents case studies that cover some noteworthy developments, such as kin-state policies of Serbia, Romania, Hungary and Russia; referenda in Catalonia and Scotland; and major events in Romania, Russia, Macedonia, and Georgia. The European Yearbook of Minority Issues is also available online.
