In democracy, the majority decides and the minority must accept this decision. The minority is expected to accept both this principle and the decisions produced by majority vote. What happens if the minority becomes a “persistent minority” – if it is permanently outvoted? The unit focuses on this problem, which is a key issue in democracies. The students analyse a model case story about a sports club and the question how the club budget is to be spent. They try to solve the problem by designing a statute.
