Social Relations and the Comparative Historical Sociology of Exclusion.

This paper will address the social and international contexts within which different doctrines of exclusion were implemented: the regulation and exclusion of the *Conversos* in 15th century Spain; competing doctrines ofexclusion and inclusion of the Jews in Revolutionary France; and the social and political regulation of the Poles in 19th century Prussia. For each case, I will recast the contradictory social relations in which an institutionalized doctrine of exclusion mediated the social relations of specific social agencies. Through this comparative analysis, the political position of Torquemada, Alonso de Espina, l'Abbé Grégoire, Clermont-Tonnerre, and Max Weber will be analysed in turn. ..PAT.-Unpublished Manuscript [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
