Trends in Ethnic Recognition
Keyword(s):
This chapter provides details on how the concept of “ethnic recognition” is defined and measured in a dataset of conflict-affected countries between 1990 and 2012. It compares and contrasts ethnic recognition to other related concepts, such as informal recognition and factional power sharing. Using the dataset, the chapter presents trends over time and across regions in the adoption of ethnic recognition in constitutions and comprehensive political settlements. It shows that ethnic recognition has been a common strategy in recent decades, with an overall adoption rate of approximately 40 percent. While rates of adoption have been relatively consistent over time, there are important regional differences in rates of recognition.
