Preferred term

ethnonational minorities  

Definition(s)

  • Ethnonational minorities are politicized groups within a society, where membership in a particular ethnic group(s) forms the basis for their members' mobilization in making collective claims on members of other groups that include a nation's political decision makers. All nations have populations of ethnic minorities—because groups of people from different cultural backgrounds, at different concentration levels, and at different historical periods have migrated the world over and been labeled ethnic by the host societies—but not all ethnic minorities are ethnonational minorities.
