Definición

  • The concept of fractionalization denotes the fragmentation and indirectly also the concentration of a set of elements (a population) into subsets (or components) along certain criteria. In the social sciences, such sets of elements used as the unit of analysis are commonly social systems, such as a legislative body, a party system, or a society as a whole.
