quotaism noun1 •The practice of taking a certain action to fulfil a quota, regardless of the action's merits (for example, ensuring that 10% of students admitted to a college are from a certain ethnic group, regardless of their qualifications).One night of television a week was given over to “Slovak night,” a practice many Czechs found annoying, seeing it merely as quotaism and adding nothing to the quality of the broadcast. — 2000
