Social cohesion and marginalization in international and interdisciplinary perspectiveFrom different academic perspectives, the volume highlights realities of life and experiences of people in a diverse society on an individual, social, and political level, which are related to their ascribed non-normativity. The book combines different research approaches and results on intersectionality and marginalization discussing their relation to social cohesion. It contributes to a better understanding of how marginalized groups are marked as »not belonging« based on multiple dimensions and are systematically excluded in terms of participation and other democratic principles.https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode
