Summary
This chapter examines discrimination in nondemocracies that are not Western or European democracies, communist, Muslim-majority, Buddhist-majority, or Orthodox-majority. I designate these thirty-eight countries “The Rest Nondemocracies” (TRND). Other than Bosnia,1 they are found in Asia, sub-Saharan Africa, and Latin America and contain 148 religious minorities that are included in the RASM dataset.
