Description:In this ground-breaking new work, Dan Goodley makes the case for a novel, distinct, intellectual, and political project dis/ability studies an orientation that might encourage us to think again about the phenomena of disability and ability.Drawing on a range of interdisciplinary areas, including sociology, psychology, education, policy and cultural studies, this much needed text takes the most topical and important issues in critical disability theory, and pushes them into new theoretical territory. Goodley argues that we are entering a time of dis/ability studies, when both categories of disability and ability require expanding upon as a response to the global politics of neoliberal capitalism. Divided into two parts, the first section traces the dual processes of ableism and disablism, suggesting that one cannot exist without the other, and makes the case for a research-driven and intersectional analysis of dis/ability. The second section applies this new analytical framework to a range of critical topics, including:The biopolitics of dis/ability and debilityInclusive educationPsychopathologyMarkets, communities and civil society." Dis/ability Studies "provides much needed depth, texture and analysis in this emerging discipline.
