Introduction
Radicalization continues to be considered a contentious concept with little consensus on what categorizes a movement or individual as "radical" (or extreme
At the intersection of language, conflict, and security
While conflicts involving language are always intertwined with other issues such as ethnic and racial identity, religion, and democratic participation, the importance of the linguistic dimension is often underestimated, along with the difficulties of achieving effective, just and sustainable solutions through language legislation and policy. Language policies have political and social consequences; they can reinforce or diffuse conflicts and soci…
Tying the Knot
The debate on religious minority rights has long been stranded in the shallows of a sterile juxtaposition between the politics of sameness and the politics of difference
Militant or pluralist secularism? The European Court of Human Rights facing religious diversity
The increased diversity of contemporary societies has multiplied the claims to accommodate this new plurality, particularly that of religions, in different contexts of everyday life such as workplaces, schools and public offices. As a result, in the last decade, there have been an increasing number of cases before the European Court of Human Rights concerning religious diversity, indicating the importance of this topic in the European arena. In s…
Superdiversity and sub-national autonomous regions
For many sub-national autonomous territories where traditional-historical groups (‘old minorities’) migration is a stable and increasingly important reality. From the perspective of the autonomous province of Bozen/Bolzano in Italy (South Tyrol), I will analyse whether the interests and claims of old and new minority groups are in permanent conflict and tension, or whether they can develop through various forms of synergy and collaboration. The a…
New minorities, old instruments? Diversity governance from the perspective of minority rights
In international law, minority rights instruments have been traditionally conceived for, and applied to, old minority groups with the exclusion of new minority groups originating from migration. Yet, minority groups, irrespective of their being old or new minorities, can be subsumed under a common definition and have some basic common claims. This allows devising a common but differentiated set of rights and obligations for old and new minority g…
Migration and Autonomous Territories
Migration is an increasingly important reality for sub-national autonomous territories characterized by large historical communities or minorities. The diverse claims of these groups, on the one hand, and of new communities arising from migration, on the other, bring complexity to the management of migration issue in the territories. Migration and Autonomous Territories, edited by Roberta Medda-Windischer and Andrea Carlà, draws on the fields of …
The european court of human rights and minority rights
In spite of the absence of a specific provision on minority rights in the European Convention on Human Rights and its Protocols, the European Court of Human Rights 1 has reviewed, since its early activity, several cases concerning minority issues. Article 14 of the Convention guarantees the right not to be discriminated against in the enjoyment of Convention rights on the ground, inter alia , of belonging to a national minority, language, religio…
