In order to obtain a clearer understanding of what marginality means in case of the disabled and how it is caused, it is necessary to shift the analysis from the level of individual and micro levels in order to encompass the societal level. One has to look to the way power and resources are distributed between social groups having competing interests. Social disadvantage and discrimination of the disabled should be seen in this wider context. Our research proposed an inquiry into the different dimensions of what exclusion of Deaf youth in Romania from employment and other social resources means and how it is caused:to describe and measure incidences of social exclusion of young people with hearing impairment; to identify pathways and measures promoting inclusion; to find out how to involve excluded people - both individually and through organizations concerned with them - in identifying exclusion and promoting inclusion.
