There is hardly any state in the world, which is not ethnically
plural. Pakistan is also no exception in this regard. Pakistan
is a country with unique ethnic diversity. This present study
focuses on the concept of ethnicity and different variables
such as religion, language, territory and caste, which have
potential to give birth violent conflicts among different ethnic
identities of Pakistan. Process of national integration can be
secured only when ethnic identities would be given adequate
representation according to the constitution to decide their
future themselves and opportunities to flourish their specific
cultural identity. Ethnic identities come into conflict when they
face imbalance in the society. Economic resources should be
judiciously distributed among different ethnic identities.
Political system should have capability to articulate social
capital on the proper place according to their intellectual level.
System should have capability to generate resources and to
utilize these resources in the best interest of various segment
of society. Political system should initiate various economic,
social and political measures to curb ethnic conflict.
Key words: Ethnic diversity, prescribed limits, imbalance society, judiciously
distributed, articulate social capital
