In State of the World's Minorities and Indigenous Peoples 2010, Minority Rights Group International offers a comprehensive overview of the situation faced by minorities in a world increasingly divided along religious lines. It includes: an analysis of government initiatives that contribute to the marginalisation of religious minorities, such as religious profiling and registration laws; first-hand accounts, from around the world, of the discrimination and exclusion faced by those belonging to minorities who wish to exercise their right to freedom of religion and belief; an exploration of grassroots efforts through interfaith dialogue to ease tensions, overcome conflicts, and promote peaceful and equitable development; an overview of the human rights situation of minorities and indigenous peoples in every major world region; and the unique statistical ranking and analysis, Peoples under Threat 2010.
