| Abstract | Explores the idea of minorities and their rights through the case study of the persecution faced by the Baha’i community in Iran. It also covers the community’s response to these persecutions, such as the creation of a robust network for mutual support and resilience, and the adoption of a "constructive resilience" strategy, engaging in community-building activities and working together with other social actors. Additionally, the chapter indicates how the idea of minorities can be utilized by the dominant elite to divide society. |
