Summary:"According to the literature covering the impact of educational inclusion or exclusion of immigrants and ethnic minorities on their political participation, it appears that most authors take for granted that having been educated facilitates actions understood to fall within this scope.

In addition, the report delves into the different understandings of educational inclusion and political participation, which vary significantly from one author to the other."
