ethnic conflict  

Definición

  • Ethnic conflict is a convenient classification of conflicts in which the parties are of different ethnic or national origin, and thus, references to it in the mass media are commonplace. The political importance of such conflicts in the 20th century was reflected in the great numbers killed: perhaps 800,000 Armenians in Turkey in 1916, and about 1 million persons in 1947, when India was partitioned to create the new state of Pakistan.
