Workshop Promotionsprogramm DuS: Inclusion (Kolloquium)

Dozent/in: Sybille Münch

Inhalt: Democratic equality, as Iris Marion Young among others maintains, entails a “principle that everyone whose basic interests are affected by policies should be included in the process of making them”. Traditionally, calls for inclusion meant that political rights that hitherto had been open exclusively to propertied white men, such as voting and holding office, should be open to those who had been excluded. Feminist democratic theory in the late 20th century also highlighted how many areas once thought to be outside of politics should be explicitly politicized and hence democratized. Next to the inclusion of women, other authors have discussed how democracies’ commitment to equality should be re-examined against the background of how ethnic minorities or immigrants are included. Yet, until today citizens in democracies often claim that decision-making processes are dominated by powerful interest. The current rise in right-wing populism that is in itself excluding minorities and pluralism, is often discussed in terms of how it is triggered by socio-economic exclusion and typically mobilizes the losers of modernization.
