Abstract

Migrants and persons belonging to ethnic minorities within the European Union are subject to unique forms of discrimination and the barriers they face in their civil and social rights, causes an increasing restriction of the enjoyment of culture. The access and right to culture in the digital age is cracking between privileged and disadvantaged groups. This paper explores the barriers that impact these two communities on the access to digital cultural goods. This research is illustrated through reference to a qualitative study in 12 jurisdictions of the European Union.
