The Concept of Social Exclusion
Željka ŠPORER
Sažetak
This article has two functions. Firstly it is designed to analyse
those dimensions which are important in developing an
understanding of the concept of social exclusion. It begins with
defining the concept. It then analyses those factors that contribute
to the exclusion process, it creates a typology of social exclusion,
investigates the role of social institutions and value systems,
globalisation as an agent of social change that contributes to
social exclusion and finally looks at the key indicators for
measuring levels of social exclusion. Second, the paper examines
whether the concept of social exclusion reflects the development
of new theoretical knowledge about the operation of the social
world that was previously not present in the earlier theories, or
whether the concept reflects existing knowledge that was
previously expressed using different language but has now been
"modernised" within the current social and political context.
