The book presents a comprehensive analytical framework for understanding majority-minority relations in divided societies, emphasizing the challenges faced by hegemonic states dominated by a single ethnic group. It argues that these states must adapt to global norms of democracy and equal rights or risk losing international legitimacy and facing civil unrest. Through an in-depth analysis of 14 case studies, the author critiques conventional liberal democratic approaches, advocating for the incorporation of significant group rights alongside individual rights through substantial constitutional reforms.
