Explain With Example the Role of Political Leaders to Determine the Outcome of Politics of Social Divisions.

It depends on how political leaders raise the demands of any community. For example:

  • It is easier to accommodate demands that are within the constitutional framework and are not at the cost of another community.
  • The demand for ‘only Sinhala’ was at the cost of the interest and identity of the Tamil community in Sri Lanka.
  • In Yugoslavia, the leaders of different ethnic communities presented their demands in such a way that these could not be accommodated within a single country.
