This book explores the societal resistance to accessibility for persons with disabilities, and tries to set an example of how to study exclusion in a time when numerous policies promise inclusion. With 12 chapters organised in three parts, the book takes a comprehensive approach to accessibility, covering transport and communication, knowledge and education, law and organisation. Topics within a wide cross-disciplinary field are covered, including disability studies, social work, sociology, ethnology, social anthropology, and history. The main example is Sweden, with its implementation of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities within the context of the Nordic welfare state. By identifying and discussing persistent social and cultural conditions as well as recurring situations and interactions that nurture resistance to advancing accessibility, despite various strong laws promoting it, the book’s conclusions are widely transferable. It argues for the value of alternating between methods, theoretical perspectives, and datasets to explore how new arenas, resources and technologies cause new accessibility concerns — and possibilities — for persons living with impairments. We need to be able to follow actors closely to uncover how they feel, act, and argue, but also to connect to wider discursive and institutional patterns and systems.This book will be of interest to scholars and students of disability studies, social work, sociology, ethnology, social anthropology, political science, and organisation studies.

Föreställ dig att du behöver hjälp av en annan människa för att klara alla dagliga rutiner och vardagens alla praktiska bestyr. Du behöver hjälp med allt från att komma upp ur sängen till att handla, laga mat och äta. Kanske behöver du också hjälp för att kunna kommunicera med andra människor. Föreställ dig sedan att din uppgift är att bistå en annan människa i alla tänkbara situationer i hans eller hennes hem, på arbetet eller offentliga platser av olika slag. Hur skulle du göra för att få vardagen att fungera? Vem skulle du vilja anställa eller arbeta hos? Hur skulle du agera? Hur skulle du hantera den andres ständiga närvaro? Denna avhandling fördjupar sig i hur brukare av personlig assistans och deras personliga assistenter gör. Brukarna har omfattande fysiska funktions-nedsättningar. Merparten av de personliga assistenterna är i liknande ålder och av samma kön som brukarna. I deras interaktion och beskrivningar av vardagen med personlig assistans återkommer tre teman: perioder eller stunder av overksamhet, förhandlingar kring vem som ska ta initiativ och ett vänskapligt sätt att förhålla sig till varandra. Hur kommer detta sig? Vilken betydelse har det för att realisera personlig assistans? Avhandlingen söker svar på dessa och flera andra frågor.
