Project COREPOL: Conflict Resolution, Mediation and Restorative Justice and the Policing of Ethnic Minorities in Germany, Austria and Hungary

Project Report

Abstract

In quite a number of member states of the European Union the policing of minority population is an increasing source of political and ethical controversies. Since the beginning of the 1990s, this also pertains to refugees and discriminated ethnic minorities in Western Europe. In the meantime, the migration flow has extended over the entire European continent. Accordingly, the related problems need to be addressed with a common European perspective. Across European member states minority‐police problems appear to be widespread and persistent.
