Explanation:
Ethnic Separatism is mainly sought by the ethnic groups themselves because what they really want apart from peaceful coexistence between them and the larger groups and the avoidance of hostility, is to protect their beliefs and traditions. They fear that their culture might get lost and their rights underminished. This does not mean that they do not interact with the rest of the society, in fact they generally take an active part in its economy. For instance, the large Chinese population living in Buenos Aires (Argentina) live in a neighbourhood of their own called "El barrio Chino", which is in turn a highly visited place by tourists This makes them feel that their differences are not only ackowledged but also welcome.
