Abstract


Abstract

This article discusses the limitations of democracy. Democracy substantively recognizes the existence of minority rights and the rights of the majority. The establishment of majority rights can give rise to the tyranny of the majority which is harmful to the interests of the minority. However, minorities can also be in power and control the politics of a country, so the majority vote is also ignored. Majority and minority discourse becomes important in the relationship between politics and power.

Keywords: Majority, Minority, Democracy.
