[Untitled][edit]

Do you think a better title would be "Racially-motivated terrorism" or "Racist terrorism"? The latter gives twice as many Google hits as "ethnic terrorism". Conocimiento 01:29, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I've got a better name for this article.."ethnically-motivated terrorism". Conocimiento 02:06, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I strongly favour "racial terrorism" or similar. This stub so far isn't about just any ethnically based terrorist groups (like ETA or the Tamil Tigers which fight for homelands for ethnic Basques and Sri Lankan Tamils respectively, or the UVF or the IRA which each attack members of the others' ethnic or sectarian community, or Shiv Sena which targets members of the Muslim ethno-religious minority in India), but specifically racist ones like the KKK.

Combining this page with Ethnic Conflict? Under this format[edit]

Hello all, I am looking to combine the ethnic violence and ethnic conflict pages into one more cohesive page. Moreover, I would like to further expand the section on the causes of ethnic violence. What do you think of this idea? Below is an expanded version of my basic proposed outline:

Causes of Ethnic Violence[edit]

I would be further explaining, using the research of prominent scholars in the field of course, the following questions:

Top-down or Bottom Up?[edit]

There is currently no mention of top-down vs bottom-up on the ethnic violence/conflict page (or any mention of these concepts in the social science sphere of wikipedia). Thus, I would like to summarize several of the prevalent and authoritative arguments for each side of the question as well as explain the concept. Since this is a driving question for many of political scientists of today, I think it's important to have this summary of the current discussion. I would be illustrating their points with the case studies the political scientists use to make it clearer. I was planning to add 3-4 paragraphs each for top-down and bottom-up.

I would also add a subsection within this to explain ethnic entrepreneurs and any prevailing political science jargon which might occur.

Interstate vs Intrastate Violence[edit]

I am not sure if this belongs under its own section or a subsection of the TD vs BU debate, but the driving force for two states going to war with a framework of ethnic violence is an important subject.

Moments of Ethnic Violence[edit]

In this section, I would like to discuss today's theories on when ethnic violence actually breaks out. Several theorists suggest that it's during democratization or a certain critical mass of a population that ethnic violence occurs. Therefore, I would summarize the main

arguments:
democratization
demography
wealth
primordial
anarchy

If anyone feels that a major event or exogenous shock is missing, please do not hesitate to respond to this.

Mitigation of Ethnic Violence/Conflict[edit]

Here, I would like to discuss the institutions, on an international and state level, that might lower tension and actually prevent ethnic violence. This is currently being further researched, so if anyone has any suggestions for places to look, I would be very grateful.

Linking Akm2173's draft: User:Akm2173/sandbox for updates. Adam (Wiki Ed) (talk) 19:27, 21 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! amannavani and I are thinking about deleting the Causality and characteristics section and moving the examples to the ethnic conflict page. We find that the CandC section is written as an opinion piece and not coherent with wikipedia guidelines. We'll be doing that sometime this week. what do you think? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Akm2173 (talk • contribs) 14:16, 27 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Cruel and Unusual Punishment to and from the "W.O.W." ""Mail it makes me want to wag my tail and wale MAIL."" (The back nine:unwrapped beanie bubbles-POPgoestheWEASEL) Make fun of me all you want, look how boring your life is if you refer to me as "fun." THINK ABOUT IT.[edit]

Description: "I recommend three books for you, well probably five-six now, but sticking with three-four: A Bible, A Dictionary, and a Thesaurus." Lets' see what you do with it. What is in your "top drawer?" For example, the drawer at any hotel, motel, Holiday Inn, but "speechless." Encyclopedia, Atlas, and whats the other book Oxford, Meriam Webster, but the "BOURNE" movies are a great example. What describes the subject line best; The Law Book, The Crime Book, or the History Book? Should it all be pushed into "The Religion Book?" I DONT KNOW. But UCMJ, and the powerful thoughts of "wanting, needed, and pleases insert smart ass comment here." Sight words, cite words, site words and Wikipedia around the horn "screen time." No fucking fit about it, but who you'd be today. Word to your Mother. -Four Square check in at "NordicTrack." ""GOD SPEED"" and the FRAME by the DOOR, but nobody likes me guess I will go eat WORMS, BREAKfast "chill mode" why "JORDAN, you or I have to do paperwork for a name like that one and the one to follow and the ones before that but paperwork...Lawsuits? SOUND OFF. I DARE YOU TO POST IT. I dare you to sneak in and take all my papers including the papers to my entire life the unbiblical chord to the "PAITYN" "JORDAN", "BRADY" CHARLES.JAMES.WAYMAN~staysweetHUM." Little did I know what any given name needs special paperwork but ifs not you its me, and overtime whats left to be forgotten besides what is important to you, me and Marley. *Air Bud, Charlottes Web, Summit, Phonics, and FAT, but PHAT, or FRAT/PHRAT and initials but how when his/her arms are the "pointer" but no arguing insdie "saso" and now remapping and great path to follow "whitey." COVID-19 and a literal Iran, to capture that "circumstantial situation" HEY SURE FRESH dmv is online now and did you see all those "vets" outside the clinic when they were remodeling singing "word word phrase word phrase word phrase." I swore that that would NEVER be me, but never forget who you are and honestly are those real veterans? What is a Veteran? "REMAIN." What did we learn in school before I started to run again to the free ticket out of here, probably given in December of 2004 but graduation and promotion, which I am stuck in a movie filmed in Bodega Bay, California called "BIRDS" so I take bird walk ALL the time and digress through a full house or an empty green bag to a royal flush but stay solid Rocky and dont forget the "Balboa." 192.182.109.127 (talk) 20:23, 22 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
