Description

The idea of social exclusion is part of the new political language.

When Labour came into government in 1997, it launched the Social Exclusion Unit to pursue this central theme.

But what exactly does social inclusion mean? This revised and updated edition of The Inclusive Society? identifies three competing meanings of the term in contemporary British Politics, emphasising poverty, employment and morality.

Ruth Levitas argues that there has been a shift away from understanding social exclusion as primarily a problem of poverty, towards questions of social integration through paid work and moral regulation.
