Keywords: minorities, law-making, prejudice, access to education
Abstract: The article is based on the study of Bruce Ackerman: Beyond Carolene Products and analyses which minorities deserves special attention within the law-making processes. It deals with the issue of applicability of the current theoretical and constitutional doctrines related to the interests' representation in law-making. The concern is also focused on the efficiency of 'quick solutions' by the supreme courts vis-a-vis slower advancements built on the expressed interests of minorities to enforce their rights through individual or collective means.
