This article elaborates on the topic of majority rule which is a principle that has been a part of the democratic systems for centuries, but is being questioned nowadays. Some even say that in democracy the majority does not need to wield the power and  that the principal value of modern political systems should be  the  rule of inclusion, i.e. engaging in the decision-making process as many social groups as possible. Instead of challenging the idea of majority rule it is worth to analyse it systemically from various perspectives. First, it seems significant to establish the scope of the definition, namely to clearly state what the majority rule is. Second, it should be decided what this rule is legitimized by when analyzed from the point of view of electoral process, parliamentary support and social trust. Third, the aspect of majority threshold should be scrutinized as it differs depending on the importance of the decision taken by the legislative body. Finally, it is worth to analyze the topic of minority rule government which is the government that has no absolute majority in the Parliament; such a situation is sometimes called ‘a lower majority rules.

The concept of absolute majority is present in a number of provisions contained in the Act on municipal (gmina) self-government of 8 March 1990, the Act on district (poviat) self-government of 5 June 1998 and the Act on regional (voivodship) self-government of the same date. Consequently, it has become a subject of numerous decisions of the Supreme Administrative Court and the Constitutional Court’s (Trybunał Konstytucyjny) resolution of 20 September 1995. The position of the Constitutional Court presented in the resolution has become widely recognised and constitutes the basis for the regulations adopted in statutes of local self-government entities.

Pojęcie „większość bezwzględna” występuje w szeregu przepisów ustawy z 8 marca 1990 r. o samorządzie gminnym, ustawy z 5 czerwca 1998 r. o samorządzie powiatowym i ustawy z 5 czerwca 1998 r. o samorządzie województwa. Stało się ono przedmiotem kilku orzeczeń Naczelnego Sądu Administracyjnego oraz uchwały Trybunału Konstytucyjnego z 20 września 1995 r. Stanowisko Trybunału Konstytucyjnego zostało powszechnie zaakceptowane i stało się podstawą regulacji przyjmowanych w statutach jednostek samorządu terytorialnego.
