dc.description.abstract | Democracy operates by the majority rule. The majority rule, however, may not
and should not be justified as such when it fails to protect rights of the minorities equally to those protected for the majority. A member of the community does not lose her or his dignity as a human being or shed the status as the holder of the constitutionally guaranteed rights just because she or he does not belong to a majority under a peculiar standard at a particular moment. It is a necessary and sufficient condition for the sustenance of any democracy that the government is obligated to guarantee the rights for all individuals including minorities. As discrimination against minorities lies at the core of the issues pertaining to the constitutional protection of minorities and their rights, how to construct the constitutional mechanism to interpret and apply the Constitutions equal protection mandate in the context of constitutional adjudication over the statute promulgated by the national legislature becomes an essential question to be posed and answered. This challenge is deduced in a representative democracy to the questions of how much of legislative formative power is constitutionally vested to the national legislature and how much the Constitutional Court should defer thereto in reviewing the constitutionality of the legislation, in terms of democratic legitimacy of its function of constitutionality review over the statute. Any particular standard of review to be adopted by the Constitutional Court for equal constitutional protection of minority rights should be coherent and consistent to the fulcrum in this larger context. | - |
