这份工作文件审查了社会排斥的一些历史根源，试图为如何评估和界定社会排斥提供一个适当的框架，并提出了对目前定义的若干保留意见，特别是关于众所周知的对贫困和失业的痴迷及其分类和归类的演变。本文阐述了社会排斥从古代的演变过程，特别是在60年代初和70年代初的法国和英国的发展。借鉴马克思、韦伯、华纳、福塞尔、布迪厄等多阶级理论和模型，探讨了个人与社会的关系和相对成员关系。为了寻求社会排斥的普遍定义，作者提出了社会排斥化学的概念。在这一概念中，人们认为，排斥不仅仅是界定和衡量产生排斥的化学元素或对它们进行数学分析，而是也可能更多地是了解这些元素的组合如何决定地方和国家政府的相关纠正政策的成功。本文收集了18个任意元素的表，并将其分为三组，命名为宏观经济，个人文化和社会文化。通过这些要素的正确组合和随后的监测，纠正政策有更大的机会提供必要的变化，以改善。从本质上讲，通过首先建立元素表并了解它们在社会中的基本行为和价值，然后正确地选择它们以提供正确的反应并最大限度地减少副产品是可行的。
This working paper examines some of the historical origins of social exclusion and attempts to provide a suitable framework for open discussion on how to assess and define it. It promotes several reservations about its current definitions especially those concerning the acclaimed obsession with poverty and unemployment and the evolution to its categorization and classification. The paper illustrates the evolution of social exclusion from ancient times and its development especially in the early 60s and 70s in France and Britain. The relationship between the individual and society and relative membership is discussed making reference to multi-class theories and models including Marx, Weber, Warner, Fussell and Bourdieu. In the search for a universal definition of social exclusion the authors promote the concept of the chemistry of social exclusion. In this concept it is suggested that exclusion is not just about defining and measuring the chemical elements that generate it or mathematically analysing them rather it is also or maybe more about understanding how the combination of such elements determine the success of relative corrective policies by local and national governments. In this paper a table of 18 arbitrary elements have been collected and divided into three groups, denominated Macro-Economic, Personal-Cultural and Social-Cultural. Through the correct combination of these elements and subsequent monitoring it is claimed that corrective policies have a greater chance of delivering the necessary changes for improvement. In essence by first building the table of elements and understanding their fundamental behaviour and value in society it is then feasible to correctly select-prioritise them to provide the right reaction and minimise by-products.
