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The Library includes a useful reference section and a considerable number of published and unpublished reports, and is especially strong in the area of minority protection with regards to international law.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 | Belarus is a small country of only 10 million inhabitants on the south-west fringes of Russia. It has few natural resources, does little trade with the West, has virtually no tourism and shows little interest in the world to its west. But it has one feature which is bringing it to the attention of a wider European public: following EU enlargement it will have more than 1000 kilometres of frontier with the EU. This book gives the reader a picture of where Belarus stands more than a decade after independence, how it my develop internally, and prospects for relations with its neighbours; and to put forward a variety of ideas about the EU's policy towards Belarus and how, if at all, it might be made more effective. |
