'Suppression of Minority Interests' refers to the marginalization or disregard of the rights, needs, and perspectives of minority groups within a larger society or organization. This can occur in various contexts, including politics, business, and social dynamics, where the dominant group prioritizes its own interests over those of minorities. Such suppression can lead to inequality, social unrest, and the erosion of democratic principles, as minority voices are often excluded from decision-making processes.
Minority voters, historically, have been the most common target of voter suppression.

Minority interests, also known as non-controlling interests, refer to the ownership stakes in a subsidiary company that are held by investors or shareholders who do not have a controlling interest. This typically occurs when a parent company owns more than 50% of a subsidiary but less than 100%, meaning that minority shareholders have limited say in management decisions. Their interests are reported on the consolidated balance sheet of the parent company, reflecting the value of these ownership stakes. Minority interests are important in financial reporting as they represent the portion of a subsidiary's equity that is not attributable to the parent company.
Because - even in the 21st century - racism and suppression of minority groups is still rampant !
The extent to which the federal government serves majority and minority interests today is often debated. While policies and laws aim to protect minority rights and promote equity, systemic issues and political dynamics can lead to disparities in representation and resource allocation. Many minority groups feel that their interests are sometimes overshadowed by majority preferences, leading to ongoing discussions about inclusivity and fairness in governance. Overall, the effectiveness of government in serving all interests can vary significantly based on context and specific issues.
The tyranny of the majority is a concept in which the majority in a society or group has the power to make decisions that oppress or marginalize minority groups. This can lead to unfair treatment, discrimination, or disregard for the rights and interests of minority members. It is a concern in democratic societies where the will of the majority can potentially infringe on the rights of individuals.
No such word. If it did exist, it would mean "suppression of the trees."
Possibly, if you consider his earnestness to protect the minority from the tyranny of the majority as a subversive attempt to ensure the rights of the elite...which is always a minority.
In a democracy, the majority is typically seen as being in control, as decisions are often made based on majority rule through elections and referendums. However, effective democracies also protect minority rights to ensure that the interests and voices of smaller groups are represented and safeguarded. This balance is crucial to prevent the "tyranny of the majority," where the majority could potentially oppress minority groups. Ultimately, a well-functioning democracy seeks to empower both the majority and protect minority interests.
