Democratic equality entails a principle that everyone whose basic interests are affected by policies should be included in the process of making them. Yet individuals and groups often claim that decision making processes are dominated by only some of the interests and perspectives in the society. What are the ideals of inclusion through which such criticisms should be made, and which might guide more inclusive political practice? This book considers that question from the point of view of norms of democratic communication, processes of representation and association, and how wide the scope of political jurisdictions should be.Democratic theorists have not sufficiently attended to the ways processes of debate and decision making often marginalize individuals and groups because the norms of political discussion are biased against some forms of expression. Inclusion and Democracy broadens our understanding of democratic communication by reflecting on the positive political functions of narrative, rhetorically situated appeals, and public protest. It reconstructs concepts of civil society and public sphere as enacting such plural forms of communication among debating citizens in large-scale societies. The book considers issues of the scope of the polity at two levels: global and local. The scope of a polity should extend as wide as the scope of social and economic interactions that raise issues of justice. Today this implies the need for global democratic institutions. At a more local level, processes of residential segregation and the design of municipal jurisdictions often result in the ability for actions in one locale to affect those in other locales without those making the decisions having to include some of those affected in the decision making process. Metropolitan governments which preserve significant local autonomy may therefore be necessary to promote political equality.

Feminist social theory and female body experience are the twin themes of Iris Marion Young's twelve outstanding essays written over the past decade and brought together here. Her contributions to social theory raise critical questions about women and citizenship, the relations of capitalism and women's oppression, and the differences between a feminist theory that emphasizes women's difference and one that assumes a gender-neutral humanity. Loosely following a phenomenological method of description, Young's essays on female embodiment discuss female movement, pregnancy, clothing, and the breasted body. In an introduction that situates her work in the context of shifts in feminist theory and politics over the past decade, Young emphasizes the rootedness of her theorizing in a dedicated and seasoned political activism.

Det talas allt oftare om »demokratins kris«. Valdeltagandet sjunker och de politiska partierna tappar medlemmar. Förtroendet för de politiska institutionerna minskar alltmedan politikens former förändras: vi ser att privata aktörer får allt större inflytande samtidigt som allt fler politiska avgöranden flyttas från traditionella beslutsfattande organ till expertgrupper. Kan vi tala om en förskjutning från demokrati till expertstyre? Det är denna fråga som Fronesis nr 2930 tar avstamp i. Innehåll: Mikael Carleheden: Är demokrati möjligt i komplexa samhällen? - Erik Albæk: Expertstyre: en avgränsning - Robert W. Sharples: Platon om demokrati och expertkunskap - Johan Lindgren: Styrningsproblemet ur ett systemteoretiskt perspektiv - Helmut Willke: Upplysning genom expertis och expertsystem - Dalia Mukhtar-Landgren: Demokrati och expertis i politiskt beslutsfattande - Åsa Knaggård: Experter i klimatpolitiken - Carina Listerborn: Om erfarenhet och expertis i planeringen - Rolf Lidskog och Göran Sundqvist: Mellan teknokrati och populism - Birgitta Niklasson och Mikael Eriksson: Rätten att fatta dåliga beslut - Frank Fischer: Fackkunskaper i en deliberativ demokrati - Michael Walzer: Filosofi och demokrati - Iris Marion Young: Aktivism kontra deliberativ demokrati - Anders Bartonek: Teori som expertisens och politikens utmanare - Theodor W. Adorno: Marginalanteckningar om teori och praxis

A landmark work of political theory on the central importance of group identity and cultural pluralism in political lifeJustice and the Politics of Difference challenges the prevailing reduction of social justice to distributive justice, critically analyzing basic concepts underlying most theories of justice such as impartiality, formal equality, and the unitary moral subjectivity. Drawing on the experiences and concerns of social movements created by marginalized and excluded groups, Iris Marion Young shows how democratic theorists fail to consider institutional arrangements for including people not culturally identified with white European male norms of reason and respectability. Basing her vision of the good society on the differentiated, culturally plural network of contemporary urban life, she argues for a principle of group representation in democratic publics and for group-differentiated policies. Danielle Allen’s incisive foreword contextualizes Young’s work and explains how debates surrounding social justice have changed since—and been transformed by—the original publication of the book.

When the noted political philosopher Iris Marion Young died in 2006, her death was mourned as the passing of "one of the most important political philosophers of the past quarter-century" (Cass Sunstein) and as an important and innovative thinker working at the conjunction of a number of important topics: global justice; democracy and difference; continental political theory; ethics and international affairs; and gender, race and public policy. In her long-awaited Responsibility for Justice, Young discusses our responsibilities to address "structural" injustices in which we among many are implicated (but for which we not to blame), often by virtue of participating in a market, such as buying goods produced in sweatshops, or participating in booming housing markets that leave many homeless. Young argues that addressing these structural injustices requires a new model of responsibility, which she calls the "social connection" model. She develops this idea by clarifying the nature of structural injustice; developing the notion of political responsibility for injustice and how it differs from older ideas of blame and guilt; and finally how we can then use this model to describe our responsibilities to others no matter who we are and where we live. With a foreward by Martha C. Nussbaum, this last statement by a revered and highly influential thinker will be of great interest to political theorists and philosophers, ethicists, and feminist and political philosophers.

Written over a span of more than two decades, the essays by Iris Marion Young collected in this volume describe diverse aspects of women's lived body experience in modern Western societies. Drawing on the ideas of several twentieth century continental philosophers--including Simone de Beauvoir, Martin Heidegger, Luce Irigaray, Julia Kristeva, and Maurice Merleau-Ponty--Young constructs rigorous analytic categories for interpreting embodied subjectivity. The essays combine theoretical description of experience with normative evaluation of the unjust constraints on their freedom and opportunity that continue to burden many women. The lead essay rethinks the purpose of the category of "gender" for feminist theory, after important debates have questioned its usefulness. Young's classic essay, "Throwing Like a Girl," is reprinted here, along with a comment of the impact of that essay twenty years later. Newer essays include reflection on the meaning of being at home, and the need for privacy in old age residences. Other essays analyze aspects of the experience of women and girls that have received little attention even in feminist theory--such as the sexuality of breasts, or menstruation as punctuation in a woman's life story. Young describes the phenomenology of moving in a pregnant body and the tactile pleasures of clothing. While academically rigorous, the essays are also written with engaging style, incorporating vivid imagery and autobiographical narrative. On Female Body Experience raises issues and takes positions that speak to scholars and students in philosophy, sociology, geography, medicine, nursing, and education.

'Iris Marion Young's death in 2006 was a tragic loss for the field of political theory, and this manuscript is evidence of how much she had yet to contribute. Like all her work, it addresses issues of enormous philosophical and political importance, and does so in a way that is original and insightful. It integrates a rich array of examples, concepts, theories and resources, from empirical social science to continental philosophy, and does so in a way that is seamless and effortless... it's an important manuscript and a fitting testament to Young's career."- Will Kymlicka, Philosophy, Queens University '[The book] is both very distinctively the work of Iris Marion Young in its topic, style of argument and presentation, but it also makes a number of important contributions to contemporary political philosophy, through trying to work out a 'social connection' theory of responsibility. It is particularly impressive in the open way it draws on sources - equally at home discussing Derrida, Sartre and Levinas, as contemporary analytic philosophers such as G.A. Cohen, Alan Buchanan and Robert Goodin.' Jonathan Wolff, Philosophy, University College London

Much work in feminist ethics has been rather abstract. The editors of this work believe that the time has come to assess the potential contribution of feminist ethical theory to the evaluation of specific social policies. If feminist ethics has indeed mobilized important paradigm shifts in normative analysis, then this should enable creative ways of reflection on social policy. Feminist ethics criticizes the gender blindness and biases in much traditional ethical theory, and develops new theories and concepts that are more gender sensitive. Feminist ethics also works to conceptualize issues of right action, social justice, and the human good from out of the specifically gendered experience of diverse groups of women. Feminist ethics has no single set of questions or propositions, but includes a variety of approaches as demonstrated by these essays—some operate within a liberal framework of equality, freedom, justice, and rights, while others are more critical of mainstream liberal versions of these concepts.

For nearly four decades, the writings of Carole Pateman have been regarded as major contributions to debates within political philosophy and feminist theory. She is the recipient of the 2012 Johan Skytte Prize in political science for “in a thought-provoking way challenging established ideas about participation, sex and equality.” By critiquing conventional notions of consent at the heart of much modern political thought—hence the title for this volume—Pateman has been a central voice in discussions of such important topics as political participation and democracy, contract theory and sexual equality, liberalism and the problem of political obligation, and most recently social citizenship, welfare, and basic income. These essays, all prepared especially for this volume, deal with issues that have been central to Pateman’s work. The authors critically engage with her work while making their own original contributions and advancing ongoing debates.

Iris Marion Young is known for her ability to connect theory to public policy and practical politics in ways easily understood by a wide range of readers. This collection of essays, which extends her work on feminist theory, explores questions such as the meaning of moral respect and the ways individuals relate to social collectives, together with timely issues like welfare reform, same-sex marriage, and drug treatment for pregnant women. One of the many goals of Intersecting Voices is to energize thinking in those areas where women and men are still deprived of social justice. Essays on the social theory of groups, communication across difference, alternative principles for family law, exclusion of single mothers from full citizenship, and the ambiguous value of home lead to questions important for rethinking policy. How can women be conceptualized as a single social collective when there are so many differences among them? What spaces of discourse are required for the full inclusion of women and cultural minorities in public discussion?Can the conceptual and practical link between self-sufficiency and citizenship that continues to relegate some people to second-class status be broken? How could legal institutions be formed to recognize the actual plurality of family forms? In formulating such questions and the answers to them, Young draws upon ideas from both Anglo-American and Continental philosophers, including Seyla Benhabib, Joshua Cohen, Luce Irigaray, Susan Okin, William Galston, Simone de Beauvoir, and Michel Foucault.

In the late twentieth century many writers and activists envisioned new possibilities of transnational cooperation toward peace and global justice. In this book Iris Marion Young aims to revive such hopes by responding clearly to what are seen as the global challenges of the modern day. Inspired by claims of indigenous peoples, the book develops a concept of self-determination compatible with stronger institutions of global regulation. It theorizes new directions for thinking about federated relationships between peoples which assume that they need not be large or symmetrical. Young argues that the use of armed force to respond to oppression should be rare, genuinely multilateral, and follow a model of law enforcement more than war. She finds that neither cosmopolitan nor nationalist responses to questions of global justice are adequate and so offers a distinctive conception of responsibility, founded on participation in social structures, to describe the obligations that both individuals and organizations have in a world of global interdependence.Young applies clear analysis and cogent moral arguments to concrete cases, including the wars against Serbia and Iraq, the meaning of the US Patriot Act, the conflict in Palestine/Israel, and working conditions in sweat shops.

In an era in which our conception of what constitutes a "normal" family has undergone remarkable changes, questions have arisen regarding the role of the state in "normalizing" families through public policy. In what ways should the law seek to facilitate, or oppose, parenting and child-rearing practices that depart from the "nuclear family" with two heterosexual parents? What should the state's stance be on single parent families, unwed motherhood, or the adoption of children by gay and lesbian parents? How should authority over child rearing and education be divided between parents and the state? And how should the state deal with the inequalities that arise from birthright citizenship?Through critical essays divided into four parts-Adoption, Race, and Public Policy; Education and Parental Authority; Same Sex Families; and Birthright Citizenship-Child, Family, and State considers the philosophical, political, and legal dilemmas that surround these difficult and divisive questions. An invaluable resource in these contentious debates, Child, Family, and State illuminates the moral questions that lie before policymakers and citizens when contemplating the future of children and families.

In this classic work of feminist political thought, Iris Marion Young challenges the prevailing reduction of social justice to distributive justice. It critically analyzes basic concepts underlying most theories of justice, including impartiality, formal equality, and the unitary moral subjectivity. The starting point for her critique is the experience and concerns of the new social movements about decision making, cultural expression, and division of labor--that were created by marginal and excluded groups, including women, African Americans, and American Indians, as well as gays and lesbians. Iris Young defines concepts of domination and oppression to cover issues eluding the distributive model. Democratic theorists, according to Young do not adequately address the problem of an inclusive participatory framework. By assuming a homogeneous public, they fail to consider institutional arrangements for including people not culturally identified with white European male norms of reason and respectability. Young urges that normative theory and public policy should undermine group-based oppression by affirming rather than suppressing social group difference. Basing her vision of the good society on the differentiated, culturally plural network of contemporary urban life, she argues for a principle of group representation in democratic publics and for group-differentiated policies. Danielle Allen''s new foreword contextualizes Young''s work and explains how debates surrounding social justice have changed since--and been transformed by--the original publication of Justice and the Politics of Difference.

»Das ist zu gefährlich für dich! Mach dich nicht schmutzig!« Erziehungsgrundsätze wie diese sorgen dafür, dass Mädchen eine körperliche Zurückhaltung entwickeln. Doch warum werden Mädchen so häufig konditioniert, ihre Körper als derart zerbrechlich zu empfinden? Und wie wird Körperwahrnehmung gesellschaftlich konstruiert, und zwar auch jenseits der Sphäre der Erziehung? – Iris Marion Youngs Aufsatz gilt als Klassiker der feministischen Theorie. Die Politikwissenschaftlerin macht auf die empirischen Unterschiede männlichen und weiblichen Körperverhaltens aufmerksam und lenkt den Blick auf geschlechtsbedingte Ungerechtigkeiten, die noch heute der Überwindung harren.

En esta póstuma obra, Responsabilidad por la justicia, Iris Marion YOUNG, reconocida filósofa política y feminista, plantea el tema de la responsabilidad que cada uno tenemos frente a las injusticias "estructurales". Injusticias en las que todas las personas estamos implicadas, pero por las que normalmente no nos culpamos. Todos los agentes que contribuyen con sus acciones a los procesos estructurales que producen injusticias tienen la responsabilidad de trabajar para remediarlas.YOUNG desarrolla aquí un nuevo ideal y modelo de responsabilidad compartida. Modelo que denomina de las conexiones sociales, según el cual todos los agentes comparten responsabilidades con otros situados de forma diferente, lo que no impide que tengan distintos intereses; ofrece un camino para expresar o describir las complejas responsabilidades interconectadas que resultan de las estructuras sociales nacionales e internacionales. En los actuales marcos cada vez más transnacionales que exigen que nos planteemos cuestiones de justicia global, esta nueva concepción de la responsabilidad es un elemento decisivo para cualquier reflexión y teoría sobre la injusticia y los problemas.Esta obra desarrolla con gran rigor y claridad esta concepción clarificando la naturaleza de lo que denominamos como injusticias estructurales; analiza el término de responsabilidad política hacia la injusticia y cómo éste difiere de las antiguas ideas del reproche y de la culpa; y por último, explica cómo podemos utilizar este modelo para describir nuestras obligaciones y responsabilidades hacia los otros, sin importar quiénes seamos y dónde vivamos. Plantearse responsabilidades compartidas conlleva determinar normas de acción colectiva para transformar las estructuras que ocasionan las injusticias y para conseguir cambios sociales y políticos de manera exitosa.

Vad betyder det att tjejer kastar boll annorlunda än killar? Vad innebär rättvisa och jämlikhet i ett allt mer splittrat och pluralistiskt samhälle, där vi inte längre vill vara lika varandra men jämlika? Iris Marion Young är en av USA:s mest respekterade och radikala rättviseteoretiker. Djupt förankrad i de senaste årtiondenas diskussioner inom de nya sociala rörelserna kastar hon nytt ljus över klassiska politiska frågor om rättvisa, demokrati och jämlikhet. Hon har bland annat blivit uppmärksammad för sitt försök att vidga rättvisebegreppet bortom ett snävt fördelningspolitiskt perspektiv. Men för att förstå vad rättvisa innebär måste vi också lära oss att se det förtryck som finns mitt i de demokratiska välfärdsstaterna, menar Young. I en av sina texter definierar hon förtryckets fem ansikten. Young återkommer ofta till frågor runt det kvinnliga: Vad är kvinnlighet, varför finns det olikheter mellan könen och varför har det varit så svårt att kombinera en respekt för olikhet med idén om jämlikhet? I en av sina mest gripande och intressanta essäer berättar hon om sin mamma som sattes på anstalt och förlorade vårdnaden över sina barn så hon ansågs vara en dålig husmor.

Vi lever i en tid då den politiska samstämmigheten har gjorts till dygd inom politiken. Under 1990- och 2000-talet lämnade många socialdemokratiska partier den polariserande vänsterpositionen till förmån för det harmoniska mittenfältet. Samtidigt är det just frånvaron av politiska konflikter och reella alternativ som har banat väg för ytterhögerns framgångar.
