panethnicity  

Definition

  • In the simplest sense, panethnicity means all ethnicities in a particular category. From this perspective, ethnic groups are usually collections of people with origins in the same nation-state: for example, Americans of Japanese descent would comprise one ethnic group, and Americans of Korean descent would comprise another.
