Abstract

In this special section of this issue of Science and Public Policy, authors try to find new answers to some enduring questions about social cohesion and social inclusion that have long been present in social thought. The aim of the various contributions is to refine the approaches to inclusion and cohesion in order to increase their impact in policy-making. Authors believe that forward-looking approaches need further tailoring in order to better suit the needs of decision-makers and their changing environment, and that there is an urgent need to inform the public about the potential value of the analysis of these problems. Earlier versions of the papers were presented at the Meeting of the Latin American Association of Science and Technology Studies (ESOCITE), held 20-23 July 2010 at Buenos Aires.
