Social Exclusion of Children in the United States: Identifying Potential Indicators In: Beyond Child Poverty: The Social Exclusion of Children. A. Kahn and S. Kamerman, eds., New York: The Institute for Child and Family Policy at Columbia University, 2002: 245-286 Cohort(s): Children of the NLSY79, NLSY79 Publisher: The Institute for Child and Family Policy at Columbia University Keyword(s): Child Health; Children, Poverty; Children, Well-Being; Family Environment; Welfare Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. In this paper, we will very briefly describe several current conceptual definitions of social exclusion of children, noting that most now consider social exclusion to be a dynamic, multidimensional concept. The main portion of the paper will lay out for American audiences descriptions of eight potential domains of exclusion and identify numerous specific measures of social exclusion in each domain. Throughout, we also identify: (1) national data sources when they exist in the U.S.; (2) if U.S. sources do not exist, European sources as exemplars; and (3) critical features of social exclusion for which we have been unable to identify any data sources. |
