In our social exclusion project we use the definition of exclusion outlined by
Madanipour et al., 1998):
Social exclusion is defined as a multi-dimensional process, in which various
forms of exclusion are combined: participation in decision-making and
political processes, access to employment and material resources, and
integration into common cultural processes. When combined, they create
acute forms of exclusion that find a spatial manifestation in particular
neighbourhoods. - Madanipour, A., et al, Social exclusion in European cities.
London: Jessica Kingsley.

*************************************************************
They tell me the chancellor doesn't drink
Eats no meat and never smokes
And he lives in a modest dwelling.
But they also tell me the poor
Starve and die in misery.
How much better it would be to have a state of which men
said:
The chancellor is always drunk at cabinet meetings
Eyeing the smoke from their pipes, a few
Uneducated men sit altering the laws
There are no poor.
-- Bertolt Brecht
