Abstract

This panel examines how political participation is shaped by processes of inclusion and exclusion across different democratic contexts. It brings together studies of highly educated second-generation citizens alongside research on young people, protesters, and disengaged citizens. Together, the papers reveal the contours of how political participation is constrained, realised, or withdrawn through the intersection of gender, class, ethnicity, and institutional context. In doing so, they highlight the conditions under which democratic citizenship is enacted - and by whom.
