10th class social science online notes : Power sharing

As an example of power sharing, we will discuss the power-sharing in Belgium and Sri Lanka.

Belgium and Sri Lanka showcase their different approach to power sharing, the nature of various conflicts in the countries which rose out of language, diversity, and how they deal with it.

SRILANKA applied Majoritarianism, while BELGIUM used Accommodation.

Power sharing in Sri Lanka

MAJORITARIANISM :-

A belief that the majority community should be able to rule a country in whichever way it by disregarding the wants, wishes, and needs of the minority.
Like in INDIA here majority of Hindus are found but INDIA did not follow this approach.

Communities in Sri Lanka: –

TAMILS-NATIVES – ‘SRILANKAN TAMILS’:-They are just 13 % of the total population

Rest whose forefathers had come from INDIA as plantation workers – ‘INDIAN-TAMILS’

SINHALESE – (BUDDHIST): – they are 74% of the population.

After Independence, 1948 they formed a majority. Beside them, TAMIL-HINDUS, TAMIL-MUSLIMS, and CHRISTIAN are 7% who are both Tamil and Sinhalese.

Majoritarianism in Sri Lanka

After independence in 1948.
Leaders of Sinhala community tried to dominate and took some ‘majoritarian measures’.
1956-Act was passed- it declared Sinhala as the official language.
Preferential policy- favoring Sinhala’s for university education and government jobs.
The state shall protect an foster Buddhism.

Magnetic and non-magnetic material Class 6 Science

Magnetic and non-magnetic material Class 6 Science A magnet is a substance that is drawn to certain magnetic materials like iron, cobalt, and nickel. Magnets have the ability to draw iron to them. Natural magnets are rocks that naturally draw iron. Non-magnetic materials include things like wood, rubber, coins, feathers, leather, etc. that are not drawn to iron. Magnet characteristics It pulls magnetic materials, such as iron. The magnet's two ends are referred to as its poles. The magnet's diametrically opposed poles are drawn together. Heating, hammering, or dropping causes it to lose its characteristics. On the basis of properties types of Magnets Temporary magnets are those magnets that are magnetic for only a little duration. Typically, iron, cobalt, or nickel are used to make them. When they are close to the powerful magnet, they act like a magnet. When they are yanked away from the powerful magnet, they stop being magnetic. Permanent magnets are magnets that have magne...

What are Noble Gases? Example and noble gases name

What are Noble Gases? Example and noble gases name Noble Gases Noble gases, sometimes known as inert gases or erosions, are part of the modern periodic table's 18th group. This group is made up of the following individuals: Helium is a kind of gas (He) Neon (Ne) Argon is a gas (Ar) Krypton (Kr) Xenon is a kind of xenon gas (Xe) Radon is a gas that can cause cancer (Rn) Noble gases exist in a gaseous state under typical temperature and pressure conditions. Because all noble gases have stable electronic structures, they have very little chemical reactivity. They are monoatomic gases that do not readily form molecules. 'ns2np6' represents the basic electrical configuration of noble gases. As a result, noble gases' outermost valence shells can be deemed 'complete.' The chemical inertness of the group of 18 elements is due to this. Because of the stability of certain elements, these gases form a group. These stable elements' crusts are totally filled.
