Description and Table of Contents

Description

The globalization of economic relations is posing numerous new challenges to policy-makers at national and international levels. This book is based on the view that there is need for fresh approaches to social issues that frame analysis and policy design in a way which takes account of globalization, and which does not separate the social from the economic. It explores the value of understanding poverty, deprivation and inequality in terms of the social exclusion of individuals and groups from sources of livelihood and from citizenship rights. It also examines both the rhetoric and the reality of social exclusion and possible policy responses.
