National minorities as an element of the demographic and spatial structure of the Alpine-Adriatic-Pannonian region.
"The paper discusses minorities and their problems along borders of post [World War II] Europe and of nation states formed in the early 1990s." The author notes that minority populations are frequently located in peripheral, less developed areas of the countries concerned, and in regions where the interests of minority and majority populations conflict.
