journal contribution
posted on 15.08.2007, 13:03 authored by Ruth ListerThe article begins with an account of the values that might underpin an
inclusive model of citizenship. It then discusses such a model in terms of
participation in policy-making. It does so with particular reference to two
groups who are the named objects of policy-making but who are marginalised
in the policy-making process: people living in poverty and children. These
examples are also used to draw out some general lessons and themes. The
article concludes by linking the discussion to the idea of social justice
understood as embodying relations of recognition as well as distribution.
