More about the book
Exploring the resolution of conflicts among nationalist and ethnic groups, the authors argue for the establishment of cross-national democratic institutions. By addressing identity issues and perceptions of inequality, these institutions promote overlapping identities that diminish rigid distinctions between groups. Pooling sovereignty enhances governmental access for all ethnic parties, fostering trust and reducing threat perceptions. The case studies of Spain and Ireland illustrate how these strategies can effectively mitigate tensions and contribute to lasting peace among diverse communities.
