Sažetak
In turbulent times following the Great War, the will of victorious and emerging states to enlarge their territory clashed with the wishes of many nations to create their national states. The solution of this problem was negotiated at the Paris Peace Conference and consequently led to one of the most prominent issues of the inter-period - the question of protection of minorities in Europe. Standardisation of guaranteed minorities rights was attempted to prevent another war. With the introduction and guarantee of some fundamental human rights for their citizens, defeated and newly established states were obliged to protect their citizens who belonged to minorities (such as ethnic or religious minorities). The absence of universal protection through the rules of general contractual international law will expose all deficiencies of the protective system that bounded only some (not all) countries. The economic rights of minorities will also be analysed in this paper.
