Emancipation

Emancipation is the act of freeing or being freed/the relinquishment of control; its meaning encompasses both being able to be as one is (or as a political group chooses to be) without having to adjust to another power, while simultaneously being a contributing part or party to the whole. The latter segment helps distinguish the difference between emancipation and total independence; the term can be used in various contexts:

Full Representation , a commonly used electoral system that delivers emancipation to segments of society by means of political participation and individual representation. Proportional Representation automatically delivers full representation, while sometimes district elections deliver full representation as well, as is, for instance, the case for French-Canadians , who are able to emancipate politically.
