Disability Studies is an area of study which examines social,
political, cultural, and economic factors that define 'disability'
and establish personal and collective responses to difference. This
insightful new text will introduce readers to the discipline of
Disability Studies and enable them to engage in the lively debates
within the field. By offering an accessible yet rigorous approach
to Disability Studies, the authors provide a critical analysis of
key current issues and consider ways in which the subject can be
studied through national and international perspectives, policies,
culture and history. Key debates include: The relationship between
activism and the academy Ways to study cultural and media
representations of disability The importance of disability history
and how societies can change National and international
perspectives on children, childhood and education Political
perspectives on disability and identity The place of the body in
disability theory This text offers real-world examples of topics
that are important to debates and offers a much needed truly
international scope on the questions at hand. It is an essential
read for any individual studying, practising or with an interest in
Disability Studies.
