 Social Work: Defining the Risk of Social Exclusion

Risk is a common feature of social work. To fight it properly, social workers need to properly identify it, which is not easy in the absence of proper definitions. Defining the risk of social exclusion (perhaps, the most common type of risk in Romanian society) should start with defining social exclusion. Literature abounds in definitions of social exclusion from a wide range of perspectives, but there is no consensus over a generally-accepted definition. The analysis presented in this paper is an attempt to supply, first, a definition of social exclusion based on definitions from academics and policy-makers (governmental/ intergovernmental institutions, International Labour Organisation) and, then, a definition of the risk of social exclusion.
