Inclusive Equality

At a time of tremendous economic upheaval and fiery political contests, the possibility of viable social cohesion— and social justice—seems dimmer than ever. In this ambitious, wide-ranging book, Sally Witcher asks what it takes to create a better-functioning society. Weaving together literature on poverty, discrimination, and social exclusion, she formulates a vision for social justice as “inclusive equality,” a novel approach that reveals clear, practical ways to design and deliver social policy. Making complex material accessible, she uncovers just what social justice means and how we can achieve it.

Sally Witcher has worked in a variety of roles, including senior civil servant, researcher, and director of the Child Poverty Action Group. She is currently a freelance consultant in Edinburgh.
