Ethnopluralism contains both conservative and progressive elements


Who will have an easier time accepting  ethnopluralism, modern liberals with their multiculturalism, or the right with their imperialism and supremacism? Acceptance of ethnopluralism seems about equal for the left or right given the strengths and weaknesses of each political scheme. The natural right to differences will appeal to the left, ethnic independence and separation should appeal to the right.
Multiculturalism tried hard to make distinctly different people live happily within the same space, and it almost always ended in civil war or separation---even force can't make distinctly different ethnic groups get along well together, and religion has not accomplished this either.

Various political philosophies, but also various religions, need to stop proselytizing about being the only one, the only right, and accept cultural and ethnic differentialism. Federal systems can insure the independence of the varied states and regions without the central state becoming more powerful than the separation of powers.  The original U.S. Constitution seems uniquely harmonious with ethnopluralism.

The sameness of human beings can be seen in all ethnocentric life seeking to live and evolve to Godhood, but this needs to be understood as being best accomplished over time with ethnopluralism. International research centers proficient in sociobiology can objectively help all groups and states. Evolution can be realistically pursued in terms of cooperative competition.  Humans are capable of this.
