Frantz Fanon on Discrimination - Dictionary of Arguments

Brocker I 389
Discrimination/Postcolonial Structures/Postcolonies/Fanon: thesis: in young postcolonies federalism partially wins(1). Postcolonies are multilingual and ethnically plural. It is not possible to construct a transethnic citizenship. Instead, in many cases majority ethnic groups dominate the state, ethnic minorities are discriminated against: "While the national bourgeoisie competes with the Europeans, the craftsmen and the small professions begin a struggle against the non-national Africans"(2). This extends to demands for emigration and assault: "We have moved from nationalism to ultra-nationalism, to chauvinism, to racism"(3).
