Abstract
The need for protection of religious, racial, ethnic, and other minorities under internal (or constitutional) and international laws has perhaps never been as timely as it is now. While the minority question is one of global dimensions, this assertion is borne out by a mere glance at the grave tensions in, and the varied ethnic landscape of, present-day Europe. However, particularly if one considers the countless types of ethnicity, the minority problem has long been either attendant upon or central to the European processes. It is a recurring phenomenon presenting a need for a solution to the societal concerns it generates. The exploration for a solution to these problems, which are of a complex nature and which affect almost all spheres of the economy and society, is a task for several branches of science, with an essential yet by no means exclusive role reserved for jurisprudence and law.
