The past decade has shown great changes in the accommodation of minority communities into South-East European and Central European countries. New measures and instruments adopted in these countries often rely on international standards and on the recommendations of international organisations. A new phase of EU conditionality policy has been developed towards SEE countries aspiring to EU membership. Besides the conditionality policy of international organisations – the Council of Europe and EU membership policy –, in the case of Kosovo and Macedonia the intervention of international bodies had a direct influence on domestic policies towards minorities. New bodies of minority self-governments, of elected and non-elected consultative bodies and new solutions for their parliamentary representation have emerged. This book addresses these issues by offering an analysis of different forms of 'effective participation' for minorities in public life, the effects of European integration and detailed case studies of the different models adopted by these states.

Im März 1964 begann in Genf die erste Welthandelskonferenz - eine Konferenz, die nicht zuletzt durch den Zusammenschluss zahlreicher Schwellen- und Entwicklungsländer zur Gruppe 77 die Aufmerksamkeit der Weltöffentlichkeit erregte. Sönke Kunkel, Historiker an der Jacobs Universität Bremen, zeigt, dass mit dem Treffen in Genf nicht nur ein neuer Diskurs über Globalisierung entstand, sondern auch ein Prozess in Gang kam, der die Transformation des internationalen Systems beschleunigte, neue Akteure begünstigte und damit das Spielfeld der globalen Politik nachhaltig veränderte.

ABSTRACT The mobility of students in ASEAN as propelled by the forces of globalization and elements of regional integration is expected to generate internationalized minded professionals for the regional economy. These mobility programs cascaded to member-states through higher educational institutions is one of the major strategic components of cooperation for developing human resource capital among ASEAN countries. Platforms and arrangements established to enhance the regional mobility of students and facilitate to achieve the aspired integration, a reality that the Philippines need to fully embrace and appreciate. This study examines the status of Philippine compliance to the ASEAN objective on student mobility using qualitative approach with data sources that included document analysis and research instruments. The researcher analyzed the documents from government agencies and other sources. The survey was developed and standardized interview was adopted where results were transcribed and coded for emerging themes. Three research questions guided this study: 1) What is the situation of the Philippine compliance with ASEAN student mobility policy; 2) What factors affect Philippine compliance with ASEAN student mobility policy?; and 3) How can Philippine student mobility be improved, if needed?

Most students are imbued by Filipino culture to aspire for higher education and self-development. Majority of SUCs included internationalization in institution's policies and plans to be compliant with the SUC levelling, quality assurance assessments and responding to the ASEAN regional integration. Other challenges still persist that hinder implementation such as unpopular programs, leniency in structural arrangement, absence of centralized mobility database, multiple mobility platforms with overlapping mandates and varying credit transfer schemes, and sustainability of resources ...
