Disability and Social Movements : Learning from Australian Experiences Hardback
by Rachel Carling-Jenkins
Part of the Interdisciplinary Disability Studies series
Hardback
- Information
Description
This book provides the reader with a ground-breaking understanding of disability and social movements.
By describing how disability is philosophically, historically, and theoretically positioned, Carling-Jenkins is able to then examine disability relationally through an evaluation of the contributions of groups engaged in similar human rights struggles.
The book locates disability rights as a new social movement and provides an explanation for why disability has been divided rather than united in Australia.
Finally, it investigates whether the recent campaign to implement a national disability insurance scheme represents a re-emergence of the movement. It will be of interest to all scholars and students of both disability studies and social movements.
