Abstract
The main purpose of this paper is to argue that there are
no minority moral rights. Rights claimed to be minority moral rights,
such as land rights and hunting rights of indigenous peoples, and the
political and language rights of some minority cultures, turn out to be
either collective moral rights which are not also minority moral rights,
or else to be merely (possibly morally justified) legal minority rights
which are not also minority moral rights.
