Ethnicity, Inequality and Public Sector Governance |
Description: |
How does a multi-ethnic society resolve the contentious issue of resource allocation without damaging the state? This study examines inequality in terms of distributive justice, adaptation of political institutions, the role of symbols of recognition in representation and conflict management in power sharing, resource allocation and public policy. |
Synopsis: |
In all multi-ethnic states, the problems of equal distribution of resources and the symbolic representation of ethnic communities takes centre stage infusing and defining all public discourse. In this book, this problem - how it is manifested and accommodated - is systematically and empirically analyzed focusing on one case-study in the Caribbean. Ethnic competition and tension prowl through Trinidad and Tobago at every turn, often threatening the stability of the state. This work addresses both ethnic domination and its accommodation, and contains valuable lessons for similar states. |
