This year's IPSA Research Committees colloquium organised by RC14 Politics and Ethnicity is titled 'Minorities Under Siege?' and aims to explore the evolving and multifaceted challenges facing minority community members, their identities, cultures, religions and rights, in contemporary states, embedded within the changing normative and globally interconnected context. The notion of being 'under siege' is used as a powerful lens to examine the pressures, vulnerabilities and systemic threats that minorities face in an increasingly volatile world.
