Drawing upon vivid and harrowing life history narratives of people
labelled intellectually disabled, this book examines the ways in
which disabled subjects are constituted, regulated, governed, and
violated through an account of abjection. Extending
interdisciplinary dialogues and approaches, it abandons a construct
of violence (which by law requires a stable notion of a victim and
a perpetrator) and moves to a theorisation of abjection to explore
the ways in which disabled subjects are (re)produced, constituted,
and treated through time. Deploying a wide range of
interdisciplinary approaches, this book sits at the intersections
of criminology and sociology, re-thinks notions of dis/ability,
violence, and subjectivity, and utilises crip and queer theory to
imagine dis/ability differently. It will be of interest to all
scholars and students of disability studies, sociology and
criminology, and specifically those working the areas of life
history work, post-structuralism, hate crime, and post-modern
criminology.
