Opis: Protection of Minorities in the Wider Europe - Marc Weller

Set in the context of an ever-expanding European Union, this book examines whether we are moving towards an integrated regional system of legal provision for minorities. It illustrates the central tension between newer member states, many of which have a keen interest in seeing minority issues addressed, and established members, which remain extremely hesitant in committing themselves fully to a minority rights regime. With contributions from a wide range of experts, both academics and practitioners, this book analyses the issue of minority rights in Europe from historical, institutional and practical perspectives, to build a holistic picture of the development, institutionalization, and problems of legal provision for minorities. Addressing the past and present and future of the European minority rights regime, this volume is an essential companion for anyone with an interest in minority issues and/or EU expansion.Introduction: The Outlook for the Protection of Minorities in the Wider Europe; M.Weller PART I: THE EVOLUTION OF MINORITY GOVERNANCE IN EUROPE The Evolving Basis of European Norms of Minority Rights: Rights to Culture, Participation and Autonomy; W.Kymlicka Collective Rights in the Context of EU Accession; H-J.Heintze Forging Territorial Cohesion in Diversity: Are National Minorities Promoting Fourth Level Integration?; T.H.Malloy PART II: EUROPEAN MECHANISMS FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF MINORITY-MAJORITY RELATIONS A Remaining Share or a New Part?
