John Caldwell Calhoun  

Définition(s)

  • In A Disquisition on Government John C. Calhoun argued that majority rule inevitably led to majority tyranny and proposed instead a consensual model of government whereby each significant interest enjoys veto rights over collective decisions. He did not believe this would produce anarchy or deadlock but held instead that it would force all groups and interests genuinely to deliberate together and legislate for the common good. [Source: Encyclopedia of Political Theory; Calhoun, John Caldwell]
