Hegemonic states in which one ethnic group completely dominates all others will continue to face enormous pressures to transform because they are out of step with the new, emerging, global governing code that emphasizes democracy and equal rights. Refusal to change would lead such states to lose international legitimacy and face increasing civil strife, instability, and violence. Through systematic theoretical analysis and careful empirical study of 14 key cases, Peleg examines the options open to polities with diverse populations. Challenging the conventional wisdom of many liberal democrats, Peleg maintains that the preferred solution for a traditional hegemonic polity is not merely to grant equal rights to individuals, but also to incorporate significant group rights via mega-constitutional transformation. 606 $aDemocratization$vCase studies 606 $aNationalism$vCase studies 606 $aEthnic conflict$xPolitical aspects$vCase studies 606 $aHegemony$vCase studies 606 $aPolitical stability$vCase studies 615 0$aDemocratization 615 0$aNationalism 615 0$aEthnic conflict$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aHegemony 615 0$aPolitical stability 676 $a321.8 700 $aPeleg$b Ilan$f1944-$0854029 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910451698103321 996 $aDemocratizing the hegemonic state$92482640 997 $aUNINA
