This contribution asks: “Can there be too much democracy in integration politics?” It contends that democratic principles can be undermined through their implementation in local democratic systems. Orthodox beliefs concerning particular ideologies of democracy can undermine ethnic integration when they are utilized in local systems to maintain the status quo and block integration reforms. In order to examine this issue in detail, this paper studies ethnic politics under three models of democracy found in the United States, France, and Italy. It analyzes democratic principles and systems in the three states and their impact on the local arena, where members of ethnic minority and majority groups interact on a daily basis. |
