Varying paths or transitions toward democracy create very different outcomes for how ethnic identities, communities and politics are recognized. This book illustrates the varied consequences of democratization, from ethnic violence, new forms of accommodation to improve minorities status, or sometimes only minor improvements to life for ethnic minorities.The book treads a nuanced path between conflicting myths of democratization, illustrating that there are a variety of outcomes ranging from violence or stability, to the extension of rights, representation, and new resources for ethnic minorities. Contributors discuss the complex mechanisms that determine the impact of democratization of ethnic minorities through five factors; inherited legacies from the pre-transition period, institutional configurations, elite strategies, societal organization and international influences. Global in scope, this book features a broad range of case studies, both country specific and regional, including chapters on Nigeria, Kenya, Turkey and Taiwan, Eastern Europe, the former Soviet Union, Southeast and East Asia.This book provides new insights and makes at important contribution to existing debates. Democratization and Ethnic Minorities will be essential reading for students and scholars of democratization, nationalism, ethnic conflict and ethnic politics, political science, history, and sociology"-- Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 191-212) and index. 650 0 $a Democratization $v Case studies. 650 0 $a Ethnic conflict $v Case studies. 650 0 $a Minorities $v Case studies. 650 7 $a POLITICAL SCIENCE / General. $2 bisacsh 655 7 $a Case studies. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1423765 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1423765 650 7 $a Democratization. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00890123 650 7 $a Ethnic conflict. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00915943 650 7 $a Minorities. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01023088 650 7 $a Demokratisierung. $2 gnd 650 7 $a Nationale Minderheit. $2 gnd 650 7 $a Minderheitenfrage. $2 gnd 700 1 $a Bertrand, Jacques, $d 1965- $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/nr95017330 700 1 $a Haklai, Oded, $d 1972- $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2011092785 830 0 $a Democratization studies ; $v 20. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n98112895 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191214021414.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D4FC4814EC6A11E7AF65C16E97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
