Ethnonationalism is a current of nationalism characterized by the desire of members of an ethnic group for absolute sovereignty over their political, social and economic affairs. Ethnonationalism describes the striving of an ethnic group that sees itself as a nation for statehood .

The use of the term is often restricted to stateless ethnonationalist movements . These are based on the perception of members of the ethnic group that their group interests are not represented in the current political situation.

In its broader meaning, which stands well on the congruence of nation and state as well as the terms of existing national states includes the term is used synonymously with nationalism.
