3.The role of political party and government - The outcome will depend on how the government addresses the needs of a particular community. If it is done in fairness and according to the constitution then there will be peace.

Answer 2

Answer:

Factors in deciding outcome of politics on social divisions:

How people perceive their identities.

How political leaders raise the demand of any communities.

How government reacts to these demands.

First of all, the outcome depends on how people perceive their identities. If people see their identities in singular and exclusive terms, it becomes very difficult to accommodate.

Second, it depends on how political leaders raise the demands of any community. It is easier to accommodate demands that are within the constitutional framework and are not at the cost of another community.

Third, it depends on how the government reacts to demands of different groups. If the rulers are willing to share power and accommodate the reasonable demands of minority community, social divisions become less threatening for the country
