Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option (4) → A-IV, B-I, C-III, D-II
(A) Community Identity — this matches (IV) Universal. A feature of ascriptive identities and community feeling is that they are universal: everyone has a motherland, a mother tongue, a family, a faith.
(B) Jewish American — this matches (I) Dual Citizenship. Dual citizenship laws let citizens of one state also be citizens of another; Jewish Americans may be citizens of Israel as well as the USA.
(C) Inclusive Nationalism — this matches (III) Indian Constitution. Indian nationalism was marked by an inclusive and democratic vision that recognised diversity, and its discussions on minority and cultural rights found final expression in the Indian Constitution.
(D) Privileged Minority — this matches (II) Parsis. A minority that is not disadvantaged is called a ‘privileged minority’; religious minorities like the Parsis may be relatively well-off economically.

Inclusive because it recognised diversity and plurality.…” “…Thus, privileged minorities such as extremely wealthy people are not usually referred to as minorities; if they are, the term is qualified in some way, as in the phrase ‘privileged minority’.…” “However, it is possible to have anomalous instances where a minority group is disadvantaged in one sense but not in another. Thus, for example, religious minorities like the Parsis or Sikhs may be relatively well-off economically.…” “…Discussions on minority and cultural rights mark many of the deliberations of the Indian National Congress and find final expression in the Indian Constitution (Zaidi 1984).…” |
