Definition
Ethnic group segregation refers to the social, economic, and political separation of different ethnic groups within a society. This separation can occur through various means, such as residential segregation, educational segregation, and employment segregation.
Residential segregation occurs when members of different ethnic groups live in separate neighborhoods or regions within a city or country. This can result from historical factors, economic disparities, or government policies. Residential segregation often leads to limited interaction and social integration between different ethnic groups and can perpetuate inequalities in access to resources and opportunities.
Educational segregation refers to the separation of students from different ethnic backgrounds into different schools or classrooms. This can occur through explicit policies or through de facto segregation resulting from residential patterns. Educational segregation can affect the quality of education available to different ethnic groups and can contribute to unequal outcomes in terms of academic achievement and future opportunities.
Employment segregation refers to the concentration of different ethnic groups in different industries, occupations, or levels of employment. This can result from historical patterns, discrimination, or social networks. Employment segregation can lead to unequal access to economic opportunities, lower wages, and limited career advancement for certain ethnic groups.
Ethnic group segregation can have negative effects on society as a whole. It can perpetuate social inequalities, limit social mobility, and create barriers to integration and harmony among different ethnic groups. It is important for societies to actively work towards reducing and eliminating ethnic group segregation through policies and initiatives that promote equal access to housing, education, and employment opportunities for all individuals, regardless of their ethnic background.
