Definition

Ethno national segregation refers to the separation of different ethnic or national groups within a society or geographic region. It involves physical or social barriers that limit interaction between groups, often leading to the creation of distinct communities or territories based on ethnicity or nationality.

Some examples of ethno-national segregation include apartheid in South Africa, where racial groups were geographically separated and subjected to different rights and privileges based on their race, and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, where Jewish and Palestinian communities are segregated in various ways, including through the construction of barriers and checkpoints.

Ethno-national segregation can have significant social, economic, and political consequences. It can perpetuate inequality, discrimination, and conflict between different ethnic or national groups. It can also hinder social cohesion, economic development, and political stability in a country or region.

Efforts to address ethno-national segregation often involve promoting integration, inclusion, and equal rights for all groups within a society. This can be achieved through various measures, such as anti-discrimination laws, affirmative action policies, education programs, and initiatives that foster dialogue and understanding between different communities.
