    This ground-breaking volume considers what it means to make claims of disability membership in view of the robust Disability Rights movement, the rich areas of academic inquiry into disability, increased philosophical attention to the nature and significance of disability, a vibrant disability culture and disability arts movement, and advances in biomedical science and technology.By focusing on the statement, "We are all disabled", the book explores the following questions: What are the philosophical, political, and practical implications of making this claim? What conceptions of disability underlie it? When, if ever, is this claim justified, and when or why might it be problematic or harmful? What are the implications of claiming "we are all disabled" amidst this global COVID-19 pandemic? These critical reflections on the boundaries of disability include perspectives from the humanities, social sciences, law, and the arts. In exploring the boundaries of disability, and the ways in which these lines are drawn theoretically, legally, medically, socially, and culturally, the authors in this volume challenge particular conceptions of disability, expand the meaning and significance of the term, and consider the implications of claiming disability as an identity.It will be of interest to a broad audience, including disability scholars, advocates and activists, philosophers and historians of disability, moral theorists, clinicians, legal scholars, and artists.

  • - Understanding access through the embodied experience of women wheelchair users
    af Mariela Gaete Reyes
    1.268,95 kr.

    Disabled people's mobility, movement and access into and around the built environment is often constrained by physical and socio-attitudinal barriers. Based upon first-hand research studying the daily mobility and movement of female wheelchair users in different urban environments in England, this book explores issues relating to disabled people's access needs as well as the different contexts within which their mobility is shaped. It develops an understanding that destabilises the common-sense conception of access as solely a physical matter and incorporates social, psycho-emotional and corporeal dimensions in developing a broader conceptions of disability and mobility. Examining the interrelationships between technology and impairment as well as strategies of resistance deployed by disabled people to ensure access to urban spaces and places, the author exposes the challenges the built environment can present to the movement and mobility of disabled people and asks how we can overcome these challenges in order to make the environment more conducive to independent mobility.
