The Good Society APSA Panel Announcement
"Identity, Inclusion, and the Politics of Recognition"
August 28–31, 2008 – Boston, MA
In the spirit of this year's conference theme, Categories and the Politics of Global Inequalities, the Committee on the Political Economy of the Good Society offers "Identity, Inclusion and the Politics of Recognition" as an opportunity to critically engage the debate surrounding theories of recognition. We will examine issues of citizenship, gender, social connectedness, and identity to learn how these concepts can lead to political and economic inclusion, exclusion, and outright violence.
