Focusing on the evolving concept of social inclusion, this revised edition explores its implications in contemporary British politics. Ruth Levitas identifies three competing meanings, highlighting shifts from viewing social exclusion mainly as a poverty issue to emphasizing social integration through employment and moral regulation. The book critically examines the role of the Social Exclusion Unit launched by Labour in 1997, providing insights into the complexities of social policy and the changing landscape of political discourse surrounding inclusion.
