The English word "majoritarian" emerged in the early 19th century, derived from the French term majoritaire (1823). The French term originated from the Latin word major (comparative of magnus), meaning "greater" or "superior."
In the context of government and politics, the concept of majoritarianism refers to systems that give decision-making power to the majority of a population or group. This concept became prominent during the Age of Enlightenment and the development of democratic principles.
