This book was released on 2008 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This publication provides a comparative and up-to-date analysis of minority protection standards at the level of South East European countries as well as at the European level. After seeking to identify a developing common European standard of minority protection, it offers an answer to the question of how minority protection contributes to political as well as regional stability and to democratic institution-building in South Eastern Europe. Furthermore, it attempts to report whether the prospect of European integration and the EU's minority protection conditionality have contributed to regime stability and the democratic consolidation of these countries and whether minority protection as a conditionality requirement for EU accession is comprehensively being applied in the monitoring activities of the EU. Finally, it investigates the question of what legal and social indicators can be developed for future conflict prevention through early warning." --Book Jacket.

Book Synopsis Protection of Minorities in South Eastern Europe. Roma in Croatia by : Caroline Wähner
Download or read book Protection of Minorities in South Eastern Europe. Roma in Croatia written by Caroline Wähner and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2020-07-08 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientific Essay from the year 2013 in the subject Law - European and International Law, Intellectual Properties, grade: 2,0, Saarland University (Europainstitut), course: SEE-LAW NET: Networking of Lawyers in Advanced Teaching and Research of EU Law post-Lisbon, language: English, abstract: A „typical image“ of Southeast Europe or “the Western Balkans” and its population and problems in literary terms was pictured by the author Karl May. Even today, the word „Balkan“ as a collective term for Albania and the successor states to Yugoslavia (with the exception of Slovenia) holds the potential for conflict. Only by showing the linguistic problem, we see, there is a high potential of geographical, juridical, political, social and communication problems in the context of this region. On approaching the multiethnic structure of Southeast Europe and its willingness for accession – including integration measures – to the EU and considering the potential for conflict regarding the political and geographical classification, it becomes more than obvious that the current state of affairs is multi-layered and difficult.

Book Synopsis European Integration and the Nationalities Question by : John McGarry
Download or read book European Integration and the Nationalities Question written by John McGarry and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-09-27 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A highly topical examination of the effect of European integration on relations between states and minority nations. This new collection brings together the leading specialists in the field, and covers a wide range of cases, from Northern Ireland in the West, to Estonia and Latvia in the East, and Cyprus in the South-East. The contributors assess how European integration has affected the preparedness of states to accommodate minorities across a range of fundamental criteria, including: enhanced rights protection; autonomy; the provision of a voice for minorities in the European and international arena; and the promotion of cross-border cooperation among communities dissected by state frontiers. The comprehensive chapters stress the importance of the nationality question, and the fact that, contrary to the hopes and beliefs of many on the left and right, it is not going to go away. Beginning with an introductory essay that summarizes the impact of European integration on the nationalities question, this accessible book will be of strong interest to scholars and researchers of politics, nationalism, ethnic conflict and European studies.

Book Synopsis Minority Rights and Minority Protection in Europe by : Timofey Agarin
Download or read book Minority Rights and Minority Protection in Europe written by Timofey Agarin and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2016-03-24 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In order to gain access to the EU, nations must be seen to implement formal instruments that protect the rights of minorities. This book examines the ways in which these tools have worked in a number of post-communist states, and explores the interaction of domestic and international structures that determine the application of these policies. Using empirical examples and comparative cases, the text explores three levels of policy-making: within sub-state and national politics, and within international agreements, laws and policy blueprints. This enables the authors to establish how domestic policymakers negotiate various structural factors in order to interpret rights norms and implement them long enough to gain EU accession. Showing that it is necessary to focus upon the states of post-communist Europe as autonomous actors, and not as mere recipients of directives and initiatives from ‘the West’, the book shows how underlying structural conditions allow domestic policy actors to talk the talk of rights protection without walking the walk of implementing minority rights legislation on their territories.
Book Synopsis Prospects and Risks Beyond EU Enlargement by : Wim van Meurs
Download or read book Prospects and Risks Beyond EU Enlargement written by Wim van Meurs and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the European Union ́s upcoming eastern enlargement, Europe is confronted with the necessity of creating security and stability beyond the EU borders in Eastern and Southeastern Europe. This task includes not only numerous risks but also opportunities to face the challenges of the 21st century. This volume provides policy-oriented recommendations and differentiated assessments for all nine states and entities of the region, as well as for the policy areas of governance, economy and security. The authors explore the unintended consequences and side-effects of massive support for reforms and external influence on weak states. A concept for a "Mulit-Layered Europe" is developed for the strategic dilemmas concerning the current debate on "Wilder Europe". The unique alliance between analytical output and strategic thinking makes the book valuable for the academic community and for persons responsible for Europe ́s future. The volume is one of two from a joint project on "Security in Europa and beyond its borders" of the Bertelsmann Foundation in Guetersloh and the Center for Applied Policy Research in Munich.

Download or read book Minority Integration in Central Eastern Europe written by Timofey Agarin and published by Rodopi. This book was released on 2009 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book presents a timely examination on a range of issues present in the discussions on the integration of ethnic minorities in Central Eastern Europe: norm setting, equality promotion, multiculturalism, nation-building, social cohesion, and ethnic diversity.

The volume starts with an analysis of international organizations setting standards and promoting minority rights norms on ethnic diversity and equal treatment. The second and third sections address state policies that provide fora for minority groups to participate in policy-making as well as the role of society and its various actors their development and enactment of integration concepts. The volume aims to assess the future of ethnic diversity and equality in societies across Central Eastern European states.

Book Synopsis Trajectories of Minority Rights Issues in Europe by : Timofey Agarin
Download or read book Trajectories of Minority Rights Issues in Europe written by Timofey Agarin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-01-13 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The interest in minority protection emerged during the period of democratic transition, particularly of ethnically segmented postcommunist societies after the end of the Cold War. Minority issues became prominent as postcommunist states lined up as potential candidates for EU membership and the respect for and protection of minority rights was an essential part of criteria these states had to fulfil before EU accession. Minority rights protection has constituted an important ‘gatekeeping’ criterion for EU membership. Its monitoring remains a powerful instrument to mediate tensions and to adjudicate discriminations in the present-day Europe. In many countries, minority rights standards have been transposed in domestic legislation, but whether these norms constitute a legitimate background which states accept, sustain and promote is the focus of this book. This volume takes on the task of analysing the diffusion of minority rights norms across the European continent. It looks specifically at the oft-neglected process of compliance meaning not only the formal adoption of European laws but also their implementation within the domestic context. The contributions analyse the political rhetoric, legal transposition and behavioural compliance in a range of European states, East and West, to assess compliance to norms of minority protection. This book was published as a special issue of Perspectives on European Politics and Society.
Book Synopsis Minorities in Southeast Europe by : Hugh Poulton
Download or read book Minorities in Southeast Europe written by Hugh Poulton and published by Minority Rights Group. This book was released on 1998 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ethnic conflict in southeastern Europe lies behind the tragic recent wars in the region. It is important, therefore, to understand and address relations between majorities and minorities in the area. This report provides a conceptual map to the key issues facing minorities in the region today, and a historical framework for understanding the role of ethnicity and religion in the formation of political systems. Particular attention is given to the region's various Muslim minorities, to the different non-territorial groups (Armenians, Jews, Roma and Vlachs), and to groups whose identity is denied by the state in which they live (such as Macedonians in Bulgaria and Greece), providing an insight into the major issues that provoke inter-group conflict.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays examines the legal regime in the post-Cold War era which has developed in response to the demands of ethnic, racial & religious groups in Europe. In essence this volume seeks to examine the 'old' problem of national minorities in the 'new' Europe. The essays examine the response of the main institutions within Europe (i.e. the Council of Europe, OSCE & European Union), the increasing recourse of states to bilateral arrangements, the developing content of minority rights, the challenges posed by state-building & the resolution of conflicts involving national minorities. Particular issues considered include the minorities situation in the Former Yugoslavia, the situation in Ukraine (in particular in Crimea), the position of the minority Catholic population in Northern Ireland, as well as developments in the context of autonomous regimes & power-sharing arrangements. At the end of the book, a collection of documents, which supplement these chapters & are relevant to minority rights in the 'New' Europe, can be found. Whilst the book's editors are both legal academics from the United Kingdom, the contributors' backgrounds are diverse & varied, originating from a number of different countries, with expertise in a wide variety of areas.
Book Synopsis Pushing for Change? by : Snježana Bokulić
Download or read book Pushing for Change? written by Snježana Bokulić and published by Minority Rights Group. This book was released on 2008 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report considers three crucial areas for minorities: participation in public life, employment and education. Lack of equality in these areas serves to keep minorities disadvantaged over generations: if this goes consistently unaddressed, the seeds for future conflict can begin to grow. Given that one of the main concerns of the EU in this region has been inter-ethnic conflict prevention, it is vital that more attention is given to reporting on minorities.

Book Synopsis The Europeanisation of Citizenship Governance in South-East Europe by : Jelena Dzankic
Download or read book The Europeanisation of Citizenship Governance in South-East Europe written by Jelena Dzankic and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-10-02 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book looks at how Europeanisation affects the link between citizenship and governance in and across the new states of South East Europe. Contributors unpack the intimate relationship between the European Union, national governments, and citizens through a tripartite model that captures the uneven and diversified effects of Europeanisation on the governance of citizenship-related policy areas. Reflecting on the meaning of governance in different contexts, this book invites the readers to reconsider the terms and concepts that are commonly used for studying the consolidation of new states. By doing so, it directs attention to the transformative power of European integration not only on modes of governance but also on practices and experiences of citizenship. Individual chapters are ‘paired’ to examine three policy areas that are to a different degree affected by the requirements of European Union accession. Combining analysis of policy frameworks with assessment of their impact, the contributors highlight that the impact of Europeanisation can be located on a continuum stretching from ‘strongest’ in matters regarding justice and home affairs, to ‘moderate’ in general issues of social policy, to ‘weakest’ in transforming citizenship through education policies. This book was originally published as a special issue of European Politics and Society.
