25. Difference, Divide and Cleavage? Kevin Deegan-Krause, Wayne State University Conflicts and controversies can arise out of a great variety of relationships in the social structure, but only a few of these tend to polarize the politics of any given system. There is a hierarchy of cleavage bases in each system and these orders of political primacy not only vary among polities, but also tend to undergo changes over time. Such differences and changes in the political weight of sociocultural cleavages set fundamental problems for comparative research: When is region, language, or ethnicity most likely to prove polarizing? When will class take the primacy and when will denominational commitments and religious identities prove equally important cleavage bases? Which sets of circumstances are most likely to favour accommodations of such oppositions within parties and in which circumstances are they more apt to constitute issues between the parties? Which types of alliances tend to maximize the strain on the polity and which ones help to integrate it? Conflicts and controversies in great variety only a few tend to polarize Which circumstances favor accomodation? Which constitute “issues”? Which alliances maximize strain? Which help to integrate? region ethnicity language class Lipset and Rokkan 1967
