Beskrivning
Using ethnographic research, The Work of Inclusion brings the standpoints of people with intellectual disabilities to the forefront of the theological conversation around disability, inclusion, grace, and sin.In a world shaped by interdependency, developing a theological attunement to intellectual disability helps us to understand that human agency is both enabled by and limited by dependency relationships. Only by recognizing the kinds of complex layers of agency seen in this ethnographic study can Christian ethics more broadly address the place of hope, grace, and resistance against structures of sin and injustice.

Recensioner i media

Lorraine Cuddeback-Gedeon's The Work of Inclusion upends the approach to theology by a lone researcher in the library stacks and at the computer to be with the subjects of her research, using the tools of ethnography, and engaging directly with the subjects of her work: People with Intellectual and Developmental Disability. This research navigates the inclination to impose meaning on encounters between the ethnographer and her subjects. Cuddeback-Gedeon successfully risks eliciting non-discursive communication with her subjects by turning deftly toward discovering an embodied communication, through a conscious of shared humanity, and fashioned by solidaristic reflexivity.
