Description
Social Exclusion in the UK: A Lived Experience Approach This book challenges cultural norms and assumptions that affect marginalised groups in UK society. It presents lived experiences alongside critical commentary on social stigma, exclusion, and marginalisation. The chapters are co-authored by people with lived experience and academics, drawing on Transformative Learning Theory. The book explores the impact of inequality on people's lives, including substance use, poverty, asylum seeking, and being transgender. By giving a voice to those most affected by inequality, this book aims to challenge existing responses and promote critical reflection. The authors seek to legitimise lived experience expertise, foster critical thinking about one's own beliefs, and inform responses with the help of lived experience expertise.
