Majority College Essays Samples For Students

The possibility of a “tyranny of the majority” is emphasized in the de Tocqueville reading and also in Madison’s Federalist Paper #10. When comparing and contrasting both author’s thoughts on tyranny of the majority, you come across de Tocqueville’s feelings towards a democracy and Madison’s feelings towards a democracy too, both authors seem to follow the same goals but instinctively it really falls on the author that feels the majority is overbearing. De Tocqueville felt that a society that was comprised of equal citizens shouldn’t just depend on the majority being right, since they ...

The philistines, the idealists and the realists

In society we have three clusters of people. The majority, the minority and the other wise classified. From this arrangement, the majority usually has the upper hand in the creation of policies, theories and lifestyles. The minority on the hand have no option that to abide by the specifications set aside by the majority. The other wise classified, do not have a problem in agreeing with the majority but if they are right. From the above setting, it is easy to understand that the numbers dictate the shape of the society. The majority is the backbone of the society. ...

Political economy of communication

Question 1Consciousness Industry Approach
According to Jhally’s perception and approach about the consciousness industry, the core objective of the media in the current world is to produce and maintain shared thoughts within the public in general. Generally, every society is characterized by an uneven distribution of wealth and income based on the global economic systems. The majority of the economic systems especially capitalism aids a small proportion of people in the society to gain control of the means of production.
The consciousness industry approach can be termed as an institution based approach, which is concerned with the core ...

James Madison was the fourth President of the United States and one of the founding fathers of the nation. He wrote America’s first constitution, the Articles of Confederation, as well as the Bill of Rights.

Madison was a strong believer in democracy and the right of a people to choose their leaders by a majority of votes.
However, Madison also understood that if limits were not put on what a majority could do with ...

Introduction

With the emphasis of social economy at the end of 20th century and the beginning of 21st century, the rhetoric of human rights and of equality between gender, races, ethnicities, etc., has entered into a new dimension. Activist groups supporting the equal rights and benefits for the vulnerable groups (people belonging to different races, ethnicities, religion, sexualities, people with physical or psychical disabilities or women) have supported this rhetoric through peaceful or violent manifestations. Their requirements have been integrated in programmatic documents and in some countries, like United States, such requirements have been implemented under the form of affirmative ...

Explain how health inequalities may be understood as inequalities that require structural level explanations.

Inequalities in health are deplored in modern democratic nations and equal opportunities are extolled in principle, if not in practice. The legacy of racism and economic inequality can be rooted in history and is still permeating in the status quo. Inequalities in health status, disease occurrence and mortality are shaped by accumulated wealth, material circumstances, environmental quality, nutrition and a wide range of personal behaviours, genetic inheritance and health services (Bhopal, 2006).
Within multiethnic societies, European-origin White populations are characterized by being richer, more powerful and enjoying better material circumstances, environment quality, and health services than non-White ethnic-minority populations. ...

Abstract

Decision making is of great significance to the governance of any country by the federal government. The United States Federal ensures that the decisions made in relation to its citizen are fair and just. This is where the concept of majority rule comes into play. The democratic system in the United States of America is one that operates under the reference of majority rule. However, it is important for countries to address issues concerning the welfare of the minority groups within the society. The aspect of majority rule is somehow contradictory when it comes to considering the rights of ...

Before Alexis de Tocqueville wrote the book “Democracy in America,” the problem of “tyranny of the majority” had hit the American society in such a way that the majority enjoyed the sovereignty of the minority. It was until after the French revolution that most scholars such as John Stuart Mill and Tocqueville opted to devise mechanisms through which they would adopt in reducing and preventing the sustainability of the vice. This is because the minority groups from various religion and races had become slaves in such a way that they could not influence any problem solving or decision-making process ...

Introduction

Tyranny of majority is a phrase used by Alexis de Tocqueville in the book Democracy in America. Tocqueville used this phrase to imply a situation where the majority uses their influence to victimize or oppress the minority. Tyranny of majority presents a scenario where if the majority influences all matters in the society then the rights of the individuals and the minority will be vulnerable. Tocqueville argues that, tyranny of majority is comparable to a modified form of dictatorship where the majority oppresses the minority. It is a dangerous system of democracy and should be discouraged to avoid manipulation ...

John Stuart Mills Tyranny of the Majority

John Stuart Mills fears that if no limitations are implemented to the rules of the majority, then there is a possibility that this “freedom” will be exploited and there will come a time when the majority will oppress the minority. Mills fear that someday, the minority will not have any freedom to choose their own religion, language or culture which will eventually stop them from having an identity of their own because the majority will rule over them. Since Mills lived in a world when there is prime distinction between the rich and poor and the poor outnumbers the ...

We are often contracted to be coerced by our everyday actions because we believe that everyone in the group is better off. If a person buys something voluntarily, they know that they will have to pay tax on that product because it is of the benefit to the majority. There will be harm from the state if they don’t pay the tax or they will not receive what they want. There is a problem when people can’t make good judgments or there is a choice or alternative and the only option is to participate. This is not ...

Introduction

The word “fiduciary” comes from the Latin word “fiducia”, which means “trust”. The term “fiduciary” is most often used to refer to a person or business that has the power and obligation to act on behalf of another person (called the beneficiary) against the background of total trust, honesty and good faith. Fiduciary duties of directors, officers and controlling shareholders play significant role in business and corporate governance, along with other duties, imposed on them by position. For the purposes of this assignment I would like to discuss fiduciary duties of directors, officers and controlling shareholders. The legislation of ...

Final Assignment: Analysis of Passage from Church, State and Jew in the Middle Ages

The letter written by James II, ruler of the Kingdom of Aragon, referred to an incident referring the loss of a young Christian boy, as reported by his mother, in the city of Saragossa.

Part 1

George Ritzer defines socialization as the process that allows an individual to learn and accepts the ways of a group or society as a whole (Ritzer 154). This is the theme for this part of the paper. Individuals would always find themselves in the midst of this process as they go about their daily activities. Socialization becomes inevitable in a dynamic environment where people lives by the cliché no man is an island. For this particular theme, I find myself exploring the realm of socialization in a neutral environment—a party. I refer to this as a neutral environment ...

Socrates, in Book 5 of Plato’s Republic as explained by his student Plato distinguishes the terms faction and war. Socrates distinguishes the two terms by stating that faction is hostility towards one’s own people. On the other hand, he refers to war as hostility towards strangers. In the book, which is written in a dialogue form, Socrates is speaking to Glaucon whom he tells that faction only occurs between kinsmen. He further illustrates by giving an example of a Greek race fighting against another Greek who are its own and kin, as faction rather than war. On ...

Q.1. Before providing assessment of the case, whether or not there is a ground for legal action, the main problem has to be determined first to be able to construct a sound judgement. The main issue is that Cotton Limited, which happens to hold 89.5% of Satin Co. Limited's shares is pushing the minority shareholders including Silk to sell their own shares to Cotton Limited. The decision to buy-back the minority shares was made by Satin's board members themselves. Therefore, the idea of making the company a wholly owned subsidiary constitutes validity because the agreement was made by the ...

Although critical of democracy, Tocqueville did recognize that democracy was the form of political arrangement which would most likely be dominant in the future. While democracy could lead to an overall well being, it could also lead to a type of servitude.
Examine and evaluate two of the principal means – the notion of self-interest properly understood and the need for associations – which Tocqueville believed are necessary to mitigate against the dangers of equality and democratic society.

Tocqueville’s Idea of Democracy

The criticism of American democracy by Tocqueville can be expressed as “the tyranny of the majority” (Roark, p. 19). This idea has been ...

In the history of the United States Supreme Court, there are a multitude of cases that have left an indelible mark in the tapestry of American history, culture, and society.

It is beneficial for a nation to have women elected in the political office. In a global perspective, women are underrepresented in the world of politics, about 20 percent of the average percentage of women in the national parliaments. This underrepresentation is just one of the facts presented for women who are part of the politic arena. In addition, there are many argumentations about the representation of women in politics. On the contrary, justice arguments are clear for the representation of ...

Imagine being in a wilderness, in an alien place, life all around you, life going on unhindered. Despite the abundance around you, you still can’t find something to feed on, cheer you or relate to.

Democracy in a nutshell

Democracy, coming from the Greek word demokratia, literally means “rule of the people”.

For one, democracy is accepted to be a form of government where the majority rules. This means that for some to be the ruler of his or her state, he or she must be elected by the people of said state .
Furthermore, democracy also entitles that there is active participation of the people in both political and civil life. ...

Outcome of the 2012 congressional elections

Introduction
In order to understand the outcome of the August 2012 congressional elections in the United States, it is necessary to start by understanding the arrangement of the house, by taking a brief background look on its arrangement and operations, and at the same time, the components of the house. One essential thing to note before taking this brief look is the fact that a political balance must be maintained in the house, for effective management and governance to be achieved. With this understanding, the United States congress house is a bicameral legislature, which means that ...

The French constitution can be changed easily without sentimentality.

The results are that some people are usually left sad or unsatisfied when certain laws are amended.
When the constitution is amended without sentimentality, the general public feel left out in the process of making such a law. It may ...

Parliamentary and presidential systems are the two major systems of governments that have been adopted by many countries across the world.

According to the Constitution, executive power is exercised by the President of the United States.

The theories of both Immanuel Kant and John Stuart Mill have played an important role in framing conceptions of modern philosophical theories.

The American Senate late last week effectively changed the senatorial rules on filibusters. I do believe under the new rules, it will be technically impossible to filibuster executive appointments, among others, in the Senate. The new rule expressly gives the way to the majority in a manner that literally practices the minority have their say, majority have their way ideology. Essentially, the effects would be seen on many fronts including the relationship between the Senate and the Executive.
With the new rules facilitating the majority to have their way, the executive will be more assertive in its approach to ...

Although Madison published it anonymously, under the pretense that he was simply a concerned citizen, Federalist No. 10 can be taken as a definite statement by the principal architect of the Constitution on why he did not regard it as a democratic document but rather one designed to guard against the rule of the ...

America was built on the values of what we call “freedom.” But we are finding on deeper and deeper levels that “freedom” in regard to citizenship in a country is a concept of deep relativity. And that is a vast platform of relativity. The collective mind of America loves freedom and the concept of it. But many times that “freedom” is confused with a right-to-rule concept. Right-to-rule is the idea that each individual citizen gets the opportunity to push society in the direction that he or she chooses by casting a free vote in a free election.
The idea ...

Abstract

New advances in medical science and technology have decreased the global burden of disease. However, low-income countries lack the necessary resources to provide for the healthcare needs of all their people.

However, to be effective, these resources must be used with care. The first step in prioritizing healthcare resources is to estimate the burden of disease. High-income countries have reliable ...

As the world becomes increasingly globalized, indigenous languages become more and more at risk of becoming extinct. Given the increasing industrialization and wider communication of superpowers such as the United States and China, the increasing presence of both Western and Eastern major languages and cultures has meant the overshadowing of many local and indigenous languages. This makes them fall into the realm of 'endangered languages,' languages and ways of speaking that threaten to become obsolete in the face of a modern communicative age. This phenomenon is known as 'language shift,' and indicates the moving of some languages ...
