The well known library for Unicode support in C++ and Java is ICU (International Components for Unicode). There is a Python wrapper [1]. This is a large complex library that covers many aspects of Unicode support. It's interface looks rather Javaic than Pythonic. Some parts of it already are covered by other parts of the stdlib (the str class, the codecs and locale modules). [1] https://pypi.python.org/pypi/PyICU/
