We examine minimality in asymmetry classes of convex compact sets with respect to inclusion. We prove that each class has a minimal element. Moreover, we show there is a connection between asymmetry classes and the Rådström-Hörmander lattice. This is used to present an alternative solution to the problem of minimality posed by G. Ewald and G. C. Shephard in [4].
