A minority ethnic group when the population of a country is composed of multiple ethnic groups. In English, it is called ethnic minority or minority. Generally, it refers to a group that has a different religion, language, customs, etc. from the majority ethnic group that is the subject of the nation state. However, since the Japanese word "ethnic group" has various meanings such as "nation" or ethnic group (ethnicity), the meaning of "ethnic minority" can also change accordingly. Also, it is a concept that includes groups that are not necessarily in a minority but are in a weak position in terms of political rights, etc. (such as Africans under the apartheid system). →Multiculturalism→Related topics Sarutani Kaname | Nationalism | Self-determination | WASP Source : Heibonsha Encyclopedia About MyPedia Information |
一国の国民が複数の民族集団によって構成される場合に,少数である民族集団。英語ではethnic minority,minorityなど。一般には国民国家nation stateの主体となる多数派民族集団から見て,異なる宗教,言語,慣習などをもつ集団をさす。しかし,日本語の〈民族〉という言葉は,〈国民〉あるいはエスニック・グループ(エスニシティ)などさまざまな意味をもつために,〈少数民族〉の意味もこれに応じて変化することがある。また,必ずしも少数であることによらず,政治的権利などの面で弱い立場におかれた集団も含む概念である(アパルトヘイト体制下のアフリカ人など)。→多文化主義 →関連項目猿谷要|ナショナリズム|民族自決|WASP 出典 株式会社平凡社百科事典マイペディアについて 情報 |
