Description
Summary:The article focuses on social changes which in post-welfare state lead to the exclusion of a growing number of inhabitants from access to social rights. This is illustrated by the gradual reduction of rights in the health care system or, more accurately, the increasingly restricted access to health insurance in Slovenia. The latter trend is analyzed trough the changes in legislation and social and health policies, and also on the basis of a range of qualitative researches. The article first deals with the restricted access to health insurance for noncitizens, and in the following chapters for precarious workers and the poorest inhabitants of Slovenia. The authors show that their exclusion ensues through the production of the "Other" as an undeserving individual who - based on the neoliberal logic of selection - is justly denied access to these rights.
