Abstract
The author elaborates his proposition concerning the distinction of culturalhistorical and political identity by differentiating cultural-historical majorities and minorities from political winners and losers. He points out to a democratic paradox according to which a state is governed by political minorities of winners and not by political majorities of losers. In multi-ethnic societies, holds the author, both popular and political culture have to be developed, that is, both the cultural and the political tolerance.
