Ethnic resurgences in modern societies are examined within the framework of a general model of collective action, of which ethnic collective action is a particular instance. Social trends associated with industrialization may affect groups in such a way that ethnicity becomes a more convenient basis for mobilization than others, e.g., class. In such cases, ethnic solidarity is a natural outcome of development. Historical scenarios associated with this possibility are discussed
