Federalism: the Only Solution for Iran’s Minorities
Individual citizen rights are not enough-group rights are as important.
All Western democracies possess legislation to combat racism, but few have the commitment to ethnic equality enshrined in the Iranian Constitution. Article 15 allows the use of non-Persian regional and tribal languages in the media and education. Article 19 states that “All people of Iran, whatever the ethnic group or tribe to which they belong, enjoy equal rights; and colour, race, language, and the like, do not bestow any privilege”, while Article 20 establishes the equal cultural rights for all. The Constitution is an acknowledgement that Iran is and always has been a multi-cultural society. Cultural equality is an Iranian tradition that dates back some 2,500 years to Cyrus the Great who similarly acknowledged the importance of regional identity, ruling over a plethora of different cultures and kingdoms through a system of autonomous satrapies.
