MENENDEZ, María Cristina. Globalization and Exclusion. Readings from the Other. Polis [online]. 2006, vol.2, n.2, pp.135-159. ISSN 2594-0686.

The present paper works from the perspectives of cultural sociology and political philosophy, the study of the interaction generated between globalization and social exclusion in the current world. For instance, problems such as the lack of recognition, toleration, solidarity, the deepth of economic inequalities and the opinionated imposition for an unipolar hegemony as the rationale of control, make necessary to explore where the Other is located, to provide a subject capable to create a different alternative. Thinking on this neglected dimension is the premise to define some points of reflection for enhancing a comprehensive change within the public life.

Keywords : globalization; exclusion; values in crisis; social change.
