|aWhy isn't everyone entitled to participate in democratic elections? Is the idea of democracy compatible with the persistent disenfranchisement of prisoners, people with cognitive impairments, non-citizens and children? These questions are answered in this original book. Existing exclusions from the vote are characterized and evaluated. A new framework is developed that explores the meaning of democratic inclusion and norms of equal treatment and highlights important tensions between theseprinciples. In addition, the case for representing the interests of unborn generations is examined.Should future generations be thought of asmembers of the democratic people? The conclusion defendedin the book is that exclusions from the vote are sometimes justified, but much lessfrequently than is currently the case in contemporary democracies.
