This book offers a critical evaluation of the Framework Convention for
the Protection of National Minorities and gives to-the-point answers on
current questions. Can the Framework Convention become a pan-European
document, given the non-ratification by some states, such as Belgium,
France, Greece and Turkey? Furthermore, what is the added value of the
Framework Convention compared to other international minority monitoring
mechanisms?

This volume brings together a number of leading international experts.
Several authors are closely involved with the monitoring of minority
protection in Europe. The book is of interest to a wide audience of
academics, practitioners, policy makers, NGOs, and to all those
interested in minority rights.

With contributions by Annelies Verstichel, Antti Korkeakivi, Asbjorn
