religious minorities  

Définition

  • At a global level, there is no majority religion; there are only religious minorities. It is only within the more limited horizons of nation-states or subnational boundaries that particular groups have predominance, and it is as against such predominance that religious minority status emerges. [Source: Encyclopedia of Law & Society: American and Global Perspectives; Religious Minorities]
