“…In Luhmann’s reference to his visits to the favelas of Rio de Janeiro, exclusion becomes a central aspect in terms of a problematic social exclusion ( Luhmann , 1997: 227). By referring to Parsons’ social theory, Luhmann defines inclusion and exclusion as opportunities in which members of society are able to attend social contexts and therefore participate within them (Farzin, 2006, 2011: 80–81; Luhmann, 1995; Stichweh, 2005). Hence, social exclusion and inclusion are correlated, since the existence of inclusion inherently contains the option of exclusion (Luhmann, 1997: 620–621).…”

“…Looking at the effects of exclusion, the work of Michel Foucault offers a further perspective on social interaction and institutionalised contexts. Even though Foucault’s work is no theory of exclusion, he submits an analysis of exclusion by taking a differentiated look at social demarcations as well as exclusion as a regulatory tool within society (Farzin, 2011: 94; Gertenbach, 2008: 313). However, his analysis of exclusion is without question no appreciation of social inclusion: his work can be characterised by the ambivalence between his critique concerning social exclusion and discursive demarcation as well as the problematic impact on social mechanism of intrusive inclusion (Gertenbach, 2008: 314).…”
Newly arrived migrant students in German schools are currently the centre of attention. In 2015 and 2016 the incoming number of migrant children and adolescents of school-age has risen. Schools, the education administration as well as politics need to take action with regard to this. In the on-going debate on new immigrant students in school, German media and the public focus have been predominantly on asylum seekers from conflict zones such as Syria or Afghanistan. For schools, the increasing number of newcomers with no or little proficiency of German currently poses a challenge, even though new immigrant students at school are not a new phenomenon, but rather a permanent one. From a theoretical point of view, social participation can be discussed within the division of inclusion and exclusion. In this article we examine the potential of a theoretical framework of social inclusion and exclusion in the case of new immigrant students and establish a connection between the organisation of schooling and practices in class. The analysis of a scene of multilingual classroom interaction, held in a separate class for newcomers only, shows how a complex interplay of including and excluding effects structure the situation of newly arrived migrant students.

“…This is because these terms have been used with a normative bias, which means that inclusion is desirable and exclusion has to be avoided (Stichweh and Windolf, 2009). Farzin (2008) criticizes this by saying that in order to define what social exclusion means the term of social inclusion has been necessary. It is as if inclusion was a criterion to determine what the right or normal form of social participation is.…”
“…Más bien es el caso contrario: existe una gran atención pública hacia los excluidos por parte de los "profesionales de la exclusión" (políticos, ONG, sociólogos, etc.). Sin embargo, esto no significa que los excluidos tengan la posibilidad de poder cambiar algo de esta situación (Farzin 2008). Para seguir el hilo de una noción analítica de exclusión con su lógica binaria, conviene centrarse, entre todos estos enfoques comunicativos, en la teoría de sistemas, pues se trata de la perspectiva que, de forma más destacada, ha desarrollado una noción binaria de inclusión y exclusión en contextos comunicativos.…”

resumenEl término "exclusión social" vive su auge en las ciencias sociales europeas durante la última década. No obstante, el doble uso de la noción, como término de la política social y como concepto sociológico, ha producido un cierto carácter difuso en su contenido. El objetivo del presente trabajo es ofrecer, con la noción de "exclusión discursiva", un concepto de exclusión social capaz de satisfacer las exigencias teóricas de un concepto sociológico analítico. Para ello, se desarrolla la noción de exclusión discursiva siguiendo las más recientes investigaciones sobre la teoría sociológica del discurso y su aportación para el entendimiento de la construcción de la realidad social, más allá del lenguaje. Se trata pues, de entender el proceso de exclusión social en el contexto de su producción discursiva. El enfoque será ejemplificado utilizando la situación de exclusión de la población migrante en España.

aBstraCtThe term "social exclusion" has been converting into a buzzword in European social sciences in the last decade. But the double use of the notion, as a concept of social politics as well as a sociological concept is producing a blurring of its contents. The aim of this article is to offer an approach which is able to satisfy the theoretic requirements for an analytical sociological concept by making use of the concept of discursive exclusion. Therefore the text develops the notion of discursive exclusion based on the most recent findings about sociological discourse theory and its contributions to the understanding of the construction of social reality. The process of social exclusion has to be understood in the context of its discursive production but also has to go beyond language. The approach will be exemplified by a case study about the exclusion of migrants in Spain.
