Answers
Consociationalism (/kənˌsoʊʃiˈeɪʃənəlɪzəm/ kən-soh-shee-ay-shən-əl-iz-əm) is often viewed as synonymous with power-sharing, although it is technically only one form of power-sharing.[1]
Consociationalism is often seen as having close affinities with corporatism; some consider it to be a form of corporatism while others claim that economic corporatism was designed to regulate class conflict, while consociationalism developed on the basis of reconciling societal fragmentation along ethnic and religious lines.[2]
The goals of consociationalism are governmental stability, the survival of the power-sharing arrangements, the survival ofdemocracy, and the avoidance of violence. When consociationalism is organised along religious confessional lines, it is known asconfessionalism, as is the case in Lebanon.
