Defining National Minority under Czech Law
Original language description
There is no universal, generally accepted and legally binding definition of a national minority in international law. Similarly, domestic legislations do not offer unambiguous definitions of national minorities and although there are legal distinctions drawn between the entitlements guaranteed to autochthonous national minorities and immigrants, there are no clear-cut legal criteria on where to draw the distinction between the two categories. This article examines the ambivalent position of immigrant communities on the case study of the Vietnamese community in the Czech Republic. The methodology involves doctrinal legal analysis with the purpose to examine the syntactic and semantic ambiguities and vagueness in word meanings. Thereby focusing on how Czech domestic legislative documents define national and linguistic minorities and what are the implications from thereof for the position of the communities which are typically considered as immigrant.
