This book sets out to understand how students with disabilities
experience higher education and the transition to the workplace. It
foregrounds the voices of students and graduates in order to
explore identity, inclusion, participation and success of youth
with disabilities in higher education, as well as their transition
from university to employment. The author proposes a new
understanding of disability, considered in terms of a continuum of
abilities, balancing empirical data, theory and policy analysis
with specific regard to the interests of youth with disabilities,
making a unique contribution to discussions on access, inclusion
and success in higher education and employment. These discussions
inform social development and educational policy planning and
implementation, not only in South Africa, but also in countries
with a similar context, particularly in terms of remedial courses
of action that bring social justice to people with disabilities.
Students with Disabilities and the Transition to Work will be of
interest to all scholars and students working in the fields of
disability studies, particularly those with a focus on critical
disability studies and disability in the global south, as well as
those working in higher education, sociology, development studies
and social policy.
