  2. Iris Young • Professor of Political Science at University of Chicago • Critical and Feminist Perspectives • Written a variety of books

  3. Inclusive Democracy • Inclusive democracy is likely to promote the most just results because people aim to persuade each other of the justice and wisdom of their claims and are open to having opinions and are allowed to change (transform) during the process.

  4. Democracy • Is a tool for combating injustice • This model allows different groups from different social segments to struggle and engage with one another without putting their differences aside.

  5. Democracy and Justice • You answer to others • Everyone is mutually committed • Each group is open and willing to transform their interests to align with justice

  6. Issues with Deliberative Democracy • Assumes unlimited time to make decisions. • Privileges argument. • Privileges unity. • Assumes face-to-face discussion. • Assumes norm of order.

  7. Discussion • How do Young’s issues/problems with deliberative democracy align with Fraser’s critique of Habermas? • Ideals of participation parity, social equality, and common good? • How could Young’s interpretations of inclusive democracy change education? • How does Young’s concept of struggle differ from other perspectives we have read/discussed in class?
