Abstract

Raising the concept of 'Tyrany of the Majority' by Federalists, Alexi de Tocqueville and John Stuart Mill in eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, they revealed a new form of tyrany which was unique for those who had experienced despotic regimes.With the critique of DEMOCRACY based on majority vote, the question of ethnic, religious and linguistic minorities, along with their rights and fundamental freedoms, were raised seriously. Confronting such important challenge, liberal DEMOCRACY on the basis of neutrality, EQUALITY OF OPPORTUNITY and Positive discrimination, made attempts to help DEMOCRACY for its failure and shortcoming. Therefore it is understandable that minorities in the light of theories of liberal DEMOCRACY have been able to enjoy more capabilities and capacities towards achieving their rights and liberties.
