Abstract

Description

A co-edited refereed output of EU Framework 4 ‘Targeted Socio-Economic Research’ project, 'Making New Policies against Social Exclusion in European Cities: The Eco-social Approach and Social Impact Assessment in Social Work' (646,000 ECU), a comparative action-research project undertaken jointly with Fachhochschule Magedeburg in Germany and University of Jyvaskyla in Finland. In bringing forward the eco-social perspective, the book introduces a new theoretical understanding and new practical approaches to the questions of sustainability in social environments and social inclusion. The two co-authored chapters cover the main concepts developed and used across the project and the research undertaken in England, in Leicester.
