Overview
This module focuses on the links between socio-economic inequality (redistribution) and group/identity-based inequalities (recognition). Conventionally the responses of social policy to these dimensions of inequality are compartmentalised. The module looks at the challenges and opportunities for developing a more integrated approach, for example in relation to ethnicity and poverty.
