Beschreibung
Current ethnic conflicts in Europe have deep historical roots. These can stretch back over a thousand years, and therefore, without knowledge of the long-term development, they may not be understandable at all. The book by René Petráš, a leading Czech expert on the issue of national minorities, presents an overview of the most well-known European ethnic disputes in the past and present. It includes a summary of the overall development of minority issues in Europe, focusing on the 20th century, when, especially during the interwar period, ethnic disputes represented a key element of international politics. Current ethnic questions are also mentioned, such as tensions in the Balkans, the Hungarian minority, the Irish question, the complicated nationality problem in Spain, and new Russian minorities after the collapse of the USSR.
