Social inclusion of people with disabilities de jure and de facto: the included, the self-inclusive and the non-self-inclusive
... theories and empirical facts. The evolution of the concepts of social integration and inclusion of people with disabilities is described as a socio-political trend of imposing ‘inclusive society’ and ignoring its stratification and the laws of social exclusion. It is shown that social exclusion as one of the forms of organization of society can result not only from the structure of society, but can also be the individual’s conscious choice. The author systematizes and describes special conditions ...
The Boundaries of Ecological Ethics: Kant’s Philosophy in Dialog with the “End of Human Exclusiveness” Thesis
... their intrinsic value. Kant’s anthropocentric teaching argues that the instrumental attitude to nature has its limits. These limits are hard to determine because the anthropocentrists claim that the human being is above nature. Indeed, the “human exclusiveness thesis” (J.- M. Schaeffer) assumes that its advocates underestimate nature’s impact on humans and their connection to other living beings. Constructing a dialogue between Kant and Schaeffer helps to solve two problems. First, to determine ...

Revisiting the Maxim-Law Dynamic in the Light of Kant’s Theory of Action
A stable classification of practical principles into mutually exclusive types is foundational to Kant’s moral theory. Yet, other than a few brief hints on the distinction between maxims and laws, he does not provide any elaborate discussion on the classification and the types of practical principles in his works....

Whilst this approach is undoubtedly effective for governance and administration purposes, it is primarily conceptual in nature.

Models for countering the segregation of ethnoreligious immigrant areas in Denmark and Sweden
... The socio-economic segregation is related to the labour market. The unemployment and lack of education among large numbers of immigrants leads to the fourth criterion based on low levels of democratic participation in civil society. Such democratic exclusion of residents of vulnerable areas<49> undermines their trust in social and political institutions. This is one of the factors for the formation and successful functioning of parallel social and legal structures in vulnerable areas. Thus,...

Alternatively, state policy may involve the relaxation of border restrictions and the reallocation of border functions as a result of political integration, as witnessed in the case of the Schengen Area.

Simultaneously, citizens adapt the purposes and frequency of travel to neighbouring countries in response ...

In the Russian Far East, the population of coastal cities stabilised after a 17 % reduction of the 1990s. The only coastal area where depopulation became a steady trend was the Arctic basin (Table 2).

For example, Strategy 2022 has 150 mentions of the EU, although the US remains Denmark’s most important ally.<40> This may be due to the perception of the EU as a broader platform for advancing Danish interests in areas such as migration ...

Despite the versatility and severity of multidimensional poverty in some European countries, this phenomenon has not been sufficiently ...

It is concluded that, as the movement transformed and gradually abandoned its democratic principles, it became the main vehicle for the institutionalisation of ethnic nationalism ...

Many experts stress that the powers of the Danish Parliament in these fields are among the most considerable in the world. The question is, however, whether these powers are exercised ...

The negative effect of sensibility of human behaviour emphasised by Kant is critically analysed. When choosing between subjective and material sensibility and objective ...
