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The Library includes a useful reference section and a considerable number of published and unpublished reports, and is especially strong in the area of minority protection with regards to international law.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 | This is a useful survey of conflict and peace initiatives in the major crisis zones of the OSCE region. The book is organized in three parts. The chapters in Part 1 provide a contextual framework for a better understanding of the conflicts in Europe, the caucasus, and Central Asia. Part 2 presents regional surveys, including general chapters that describe the dynamics and political developments in each region and policy chapters that focus specifically on policy options and future perspectives for the region and reflect on conflict prevention and management tools that have been applied. The surveys in Part 2 provide a brief background analyiss of 18 of the major violent conflicts in Europe and Eurasia. The primary focus of each survey is the activities of the key local and international actors working to resolve the conflict. Part 3 of the book is a directory of more than four hundred organizations in Europe and Eurasia in the field of conflict prevention and peacebuilding. For each organization, both a short profile and practical contact information is provided. |
