In the long awaited follow-up to Justice and the Politics of Difference, Iris Marion Young - one of the world's leading political philosophers - makes a major and controversial contribution to the debates about democracy in a multicultural society. The book considers the ideals of political inclusion and exclusion and recommends ways of engaging in democratic politics in a more inclusive way. It includes a discussion of class, race and gender bias indemocratic processes, and asks whether in an era of greater global interaction, democratic institutions should become more global.
