Democracy and the Limits of Minority Rights
by Nalini Rajan
- New
- Hardcover
Sage Publications, 2002. Hardcover. New. At the start of the 21st century, we are still debating various fundamental issues pertaining to core human values, popularly known as `human rights`. Constituting an important contribution to the debate, the central purpose of this book is to demonstrate the essential link between human rights and democracy. Nalini Rajan maintains that human rights can flourish only in a state which promotes the democratic value of equal consideration of individual autonomy - i.e., each person`s capacity to act independently. Taking up various important issues and concepts like multiculturalism, citizenship, economic rights, and the right to a certain quality of life, Nalini Rajan argues that minority rights are not the only way to counter majoritarianism. She also advocates structural and constitutional changes to render the Indian polity more federal, particularly through devolution and local self-governance. Printed Pages: 236.
