| Summary/Abstract |
Identity may be based on various factors like class or caste, language state, religion, nation and even continent. In the process a person acquires multiple identities and depending on a particular situation, one of the identities may dominate. In the twenty-first century, identities may also be based on regions and regional organization promotes a pan-regional identity among their people. This article examines whether it is possible for a region like East Asia to form regional organization, since the success or failure of such endeavors influence the revolution of integration. Accordingly, natural geographical and cultural boundaries as well as identity in the East Asian context, as shaped by cultural economic, historical, political and security factors, are analyzed.

| Summary/Abstract |
We address two issues neglected in cross-national ethnic conflict literature: the role of state religious exclusivity (SRE) in ethnic conflict and the causes of discrimination against ethnic minorities. We use data from the Minorities at Risk (MAR), Polity, and Religion and State (RAS) datasets to assess whether SRE influences the extent of discrimination and repression against ethnic minorities between 1990 and 2002. The results show that SRE is strongly and significantly associated with discrimination and repression against ethnic minorities. This is true both of ethno-religious minorities and ethnic minorities who are not religiously distinct from the majority group in the state.
