ECMI Library

The ECMI Library is an independent collection of books, journals, and grey literature of more than 3,000 items covering many aspects of minority issues. The highly specialized collection offers public access to a variety of materials in more than twenty languages on interethnic relations, language and cultural diversity issues and ethnic conflict in Europe. 

The Library includes a useful reference section and a considerable number of published and unpublished reports, and is especially strong in the area of minority protection with regards to international law. The ECMI Library is also unique in that it includes an ever-growing number of annual reports of Ombudsman offices around the world, which provide insight into the human rights situation in many countries. Current periodical and newspaper subscriptions reflect the multidisciplinary nature of ECMI research, and reference services are provided both in-house and for the general public.

Description The main reason for doing a worldwide survey of ombudsmen was the rapid spread of legislative or classical ombudsmen systems, as well as a rapid growth of complaint officers on the executive side of government and in the private sector who are also called ombudsmen, all in the years from 1985 to 1997. The objectives of this paper are first to classify and explain the nature of the various types of ombudsmen in the world, and second, to determine where possible the number and location of each type.
