how the tyranny of majority can prove to be harmful
Answers
The 'tyranny of the majority' refers to the unfortunate occasion where a majority of a population come to care mostly about their own concerns at the expense of others, and often support policies and actions that suppress minorities. This can be accident through ignorance of issues, or, on purpose, through malice and intolerance. The solution is that 'majority rules' are not enough to ensure good governance and fair society. There are "circumstances where the idea of majority rule has to be modified."Additional checks and balances are needed in any democracy to ensure that popularist ideas that are short-sighted or biased cannot simply be shouted through by the loudest voices. In history, human rights have proven to be the surest and strongest bulwark against such 'mob rule'. Other strong factors are good general education, a liberal culture of tolerance and the strong rule of law with limited powers for the executive.
