  • Locating the minority problem in Europe : a historical perspective
    Roter, Petra, 1972-
    The article challenges popular beliefs that seem to be prevailing especially in the wake of the Yugoslav crises, that minorities are problematic in the East, whereas there is no such "problem" in the ... West. In order to show that such beliefs appear to be out of touch with reality, the article traces - with the help of historical analysis - the origins of the "minority problem" in Europe. It shows that the "minority problem" was first a conflict between different religious communities, whereas it is centred on ethnic identity groups in the era of nationalism. The nation-states of Europe have indeed been brought about in different circumstances, roughly corresponding to the geographical division between the West and the East. Accordingly, minorities were created differently in the states that were formed according to the Western or Eastern models of nation-building and state-formation.
