Abstract

ABSTRACT The objective of this article is to develop the concept of malevolent inclusion, being harmed by economic growth, and to provide it with empirical import drawing on results of a recent volume on immiserizing growth, or instances where growth does not benefit the poor. To do so, the author draws heavily on contributions to a philosophical debate about doing and allowing harm. Malevolent inclusion constitutes a refinement of the notion of relational poverty and a riposte to the idea of failed inclusion, being bypassed by growth. It is argued that malevolent inclusion has value as an analytical category and explanatory lens in the context of immiserizing growth.
