This book explores the economic situation of disabled people in
developing countries focusing on rehabilitation and uses
particpatory framework to community development. Although dealing
specifically with a case study from Jordan, this needs assessment
study provides comparisons with other developing societies. The
author considers the prospect for future improvement in disability
policy at a time when state budgets are already over stretched by
widespread poverty, unemployment and poor health conditions. The
book is divided into three parts. Part one explores disability and
economic rehabilitation within global context and sets the scene
for understanding what disability is and the impact of having
disability across cultures with emphasis on the experience of
discrimination. Part two deals with disability theory and practice
in Jordan in terms of economic policies and provisions available
for disabled people. Part three presents concluding remarks on the
rise of disability politics in developing countries and the
development of a participatory policy agenda.
