Abstract	[The] international conference was organised to mark the entry into force of the European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages on 1 March 1998. Seven states had ratified the charter at the time (Croatia, Finland, Hungary, Liechtenstein, the Netherlands, Norway and Switzerland), and the conference took place against a background of a growing interest in the protection and promotion of regional and/or minority languages in Europe. The purpose of the conference was to review the implementation of the charter in the seven countries which had ratified it, discuss any problems that had arisen since ratification and carry out an exchange of views on the situation in the other states. Four issues were presented by specific rapporteurs: regional or minority languages and education problems; problems raised by the use of regional or minority languages in relations with administrative and judicial authorities; mass media, cultural activities and regional or minority languages; the use of regional or minority languages in social and economic life. Seventy-five participants attended the conference, including delegates from governments of the member states of the Council of Europe, representatives of minority associations, other experts on the subject and finally members of the Working Group on Minorities of the Congress of Local and Regional Authorities of Europe. Their involvement contributed to making the discussions [ presented in this document] both lively and fruitful. (DIPF/orig.).
