Farzin (2008: 195) points out the problem with systemically defining exclusion by explaining that it is “hardly sensible” to speak about a societal “outside” (i.e. something social outside society) although the concept of exclusion suggests some form of “inside” and “outside”. Within Luhmann’s view of functionally differentiated society, it is indeed very difficult to conceptualise the matter of exclusion. This is overcome in this case by acknowledging the simultaneous existence of stratification within the structure of functional differentiation and by pointing out the existence of linguistic barriers within South African society. This allows everything social to remain part of society, while identifying systemic levels within society from which exclusion can take place. Although language is but one of many barriers to inclusion, it is surely an exceptionally important one, as subsequent discussions prove.
