Majority rule is important in any well-functioning democracy. Students will be introduced to the concept using everyday examples that may also be applied to society more broadly. This book examines how majority rule can turn into the tyranny of the majority and why the minority should be protected. In addition, readers are shown that the majority decision is not always appropriate and that having a minority opinion is always important. After reading this book, students will understand the importance that majority rule holds in a democratic society while putting it in the proper context of respect for others' opinions, even if the majority disagrees.
