This is an impassioned and controversial book from two leading sociologists in the field of social exclusion. They argue that social exclusion is not simply seen in ghettos or sink estates, but also in exclusive gated housing developments, the vacuous non-places of the shopping mall, the deadening reality of low-level service work, and in the depressing uniformity of our political parties.

L'invisibilité sociale apparaît de plus en plus comme un aspect essentiel de l'injustice dont pâtissent nombre de personnes dans les sociétés. Mais comprendre en quoi elle consiste exige un travail d'analyse et de réflexion qui ne fait que commencer. C'est à une analyse et à une réflexion philosophiques que sont conviés non seulement des philosophes, mais aussi des spécialistes de sciences humaines et des personnes qui oeuvrent avec des personnes en difficulté et des exclus.

Le mouvement des Enfants de Don Quichotte a eu un retentissement national. Qui a oublié les tentes de SDF le long du canal Saint Martin ? À ce jour, aucune enquête sociologique n'avait encore rendu compte de cet événement majeur de la lutte des sans-abri. C'est maintenant chose faite avec le recueil à chaud des témoignages des campeurs et des militants, et de portraits des principaux leaders, à commencer par la famille Legrand dont le fils Augustin a été comparé à l'abbé Pierre. L'ensemble des phases de cette action collective est disséquée en fonction d'une multiplicité de points de vue qui surprendra le lecteur tant les images véhiculées par les médias ou les riverains enthousiastes se trouvent en décalage avec les jeux de pouvoir, logiques d'associations dont les accents rebelles scéniques auront pourtant si bien cadré avec une mémoire collective projetée sur les acteurs du canal.

Youth, Education, and Marginality: Local and Global Expressions is a close examination of the lives of marginalized young people in schools. Essays by scholars and educators provide international insights grounded in educational and community practice and policy. They cover the range and intersections of marginalization: poverty, Aboriginal cultures, immigrants and newcomers, gay/lesbian youth, rural—urban divides, mental health, and so forth. Presenting challenges faced by marginalized youth alongside initiatives for mitigating their impact, the contributors critique existing systems and engage in a dialogue about where to go from here. Youth poetry, prose, and visual art complement the essays.

This book is about how Australians have responded to stories about suffering and injustice in Australia, presented in a range of public media, including literature, history, films, and television. Those who have responded are both ordinary and prominent Australians—politicians, writers, and scholars. All have sought to come to terms with Australia’s history by responding empathetically to stories of its marginalized citizens. Drawing upon international scholarship on collective memory, public history, testimony, and witnessing, this book represents a cultural history of contemporary Australia. It examines the forms of witnessing that dominated Australian public culture at the turn of the millennium. Since the late 1980s, witnessing has developed in Australia in response to the increasingly audible voices of indigenous peoples, migrants, and more recently, asylum seekers. As these voices became public, they posed a challenge not only to scholars and politicians, but also, most importantly, to ordinary citizens. When former Prime Minister Kevin Rudd delivered his historic apology to Australia’s indigenous peoples in February 2008, he performed an act of collective witnessing that affirmed the testimony and experiences of Aboriginal Australians. The phenomenon of witnessing became crucial, not only to the recognition and reparation of past injustices, but to efforts to create a more cosmopolitan Australia in the present. This is a vital addition to Transaction’s critically acclaimed Memory and Narrative series.
