Minority Rights Information System

Description:

Website of the Minority Rights Information System (MIRIS), hosted by the European Academy of Bolzano (EURAC), a research institute established in Italy in 1992. The database provides information on the implementation of minority rights in the member states of the Council of Europe and includes national legislation and case-law, international treaties and agreements of the UN, Council of Europe and the OSCE, case studies and specific documents on minority groups. Texts are made available in English and the official language of the state concerned. The database can be browsed by country, international organisation, document type, minority group or language and can be searched full-text by keyword. The site also provides a newsletter giving details of new documents added to the database.
