    Democracy is paradoxical because while it aims to be fully inclusive, it also requires placing some limits on control by minorities. Dahl explores this paradox, discussing how majority rule can infringe on minority rights but that unlimited minority veto power is also problematic for democracy. He examines ways that constitutional protections and power-sharing can help address tensions between full inclusion and majority rule.
