Political particularism
In political science, political particularism is "policymakers’ ability to further their career by catering to narrow interests rather than broader national platforms." == Political science == In a political system governed by particularism, sooner or later, the decisive factor of politics becomes ethnic and religious identity and the interests of the communities defined by these bonds. This stands in contrast with the ideas and values of political pluralism, with its emphasis on universal rights, separation of religion and the government, and an ethic of ethnic and religious tolerance.
