Scope

Does the option affect specific groups of individuals, firms, localities, the most vulnerable, the most at risk of poverty, more than others?[1]

Definition

Various factors can contribute to the exclusion of individuals, particular groups, firms or localities. The consequences of exclusion, such as poor health can further exacerbate the problem of social exclusion by lowering educational attainment and employment opportunities. Disaffected groups, especially the young, may respond to economic and social exclusion in ways that are damaging to all (e.g. crime, violence, drug abuse). Thus exclusion may not only be a product of material deprivation but may result from social deprivation - whereby individuals or groups cannot participate in social, economic, political and cultural life.[1]
