Best Answer

Ethnic democracy is a political system that is comprised of one major ethnic ruling party BUT remains truly democratic in that is provides civil and political rights for ALL its citizens- both the Dominant and Minority groups have equal rights including the right to be elected officials within the government. However, the non-majority ethnic groups (while able to participate in government) generally experience some form of discrimination, usually cultural, with the majority ethnic culture being the "official" culture and those of minority groups being marginalize and possibly even suppressed.
