Arguing about Disability

Disability is a thorny and muddled concept - especially in the field of disability studies - and social accounts contest with more traditional biologically based approaches in highly politicized debates. Sustained theoretical scrutiny has sometimes been lost amongst the controversy and philosophical issues have often been overlooked in favour of the sociological. Arguing about Disability fills that gap by offering analysis and debate concerning the moral nature of institutions, policy and practice, and their significance for disabled people and society. This pioneering collection is divided into three sections covering definitions and theories of disability; disabled people in society and applied ethics. Each contributor – drawn from a wide range of academic backgrounds including disability studies, sociology, psychology, education, philosophy, law and health science – uses a philosophical framework to explore a central issue in disability studies. The issues discussed include personhood, disability as a phenomenon, social justice, discrimination and inclusion.Providing an overview of the intersection of disability studies and philosophical ethics, Arguing about Disability is a truly interdisciplinary undertaking. It will be invaluable for all academics and students with an interest in disability studies or applied ethics, as well as disability activists.

Clashing Vulnerabilities, Disability and Conflict

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
This book is about how we might think about vulnerability—what it is and how it operates—by looking at cases where different kinds of vulnerabilities clash. Disability is often portrayed as a vulnerability in itself, and disabled people are often labelled a prototypical “vulnerable group”. This book disassembles that label by highlighting how vulnerabilities involving people with disabilities emerge and how they often conflict with other vulnerabilities: the vulnerabilities of disabled students vs. the vulnerabilities of under-educated and harassed teachers, for example. Or the struggles for legitimacy that pit neuro-divergent groups against people with chronic illnesses, one casting doubt on the validity of the other. Or the different uses of curb cuts for people in wheelchairs and people with visual impairments—uses which sometimes clash. Clashes like these illustrate the role that conflict plays in defining “vulnerability” and they lead us to think about how we might try to adjudicate between different claims of what can count as a vulnerability.Providing new insight into power and non-power, ideology, socioeconomic structures, and the vicissitudes of disability as both a subject position and a lived experience, this book will be of interest to scholars and students of disability studies, anthropology and sociology, policy, and philosophy.

Vaikeasti kehitysvammaisten arki ja ihmisyys

Vaikeasti kehitysvammaisten arki ja ihmisyys tekee näkyväksi vaikeasti kehitysvammaisten arkea ja siihen liittyviä eettisiä kysymyksiä. Millaista on heidän todellisuutensa? Toteutuvatko heidän elämässään osallisuus ja itsemäärääminen, ja miten niitä pitäisi edistää käytännössä?Tutkimus piirtää kuvan sosiaalisesti eristäytyneestä ja pysähtyneestä elämästä ja antaa synkän kuvan kehitysvammahuollon resursseista sekä niiden käytöstä. Suomessa on hyvää tarkoittava vammaispolitiikka, mutta se ei toteudu aina käytännössä. Toisaalta kehitysvammahuollossa on myös ennakkoluulotonta toimintakulttuuria, joka voi vähitellen muuttaa käytäntöjä sekä käsityksiä siitä, mihin vaikeimmin kehitysvammaiset kykenevät, mikä on heille sopivaa ja millaista elämää he ylipäätään voivat elää.Teos antaa välineitä keskusteluun, purkaa kehitysvammaisista vallalla olevia ennakkoluuloja ja kuvaa, millaisia arvoja ja periaatteita kehitysvammahuollon toimintakulttuuri ja käytännöt ilmentävät.

Vammaisuus on kattava johdatus vammaisuutta ja poikkeavuutta koskeviin historiallisiin, teoreettisiin ja eettisiin kysymyksiin. Mistä vammaisuuden ilmiössä on oikeastaan kysymys? Teos käsittelee selkeästi ja perusteellisesti vammaisuuden ilmiötä länsimaisessa kulttuurissa. Siinä tarkastellaan vammaisuuden historiaa alkaen Raamatun kuvauksista ja päätyen toisen maailmansodan hirmutekoihin ja nykyaikaan. Teoksessa esitellään vammaisuutta selittäviä teoreettisia malleja sekä vammaisten ihmisten yhteiskunnallisen aseman muotoutumista länsimaissa. Se on myös filosofinen johdatus vammaisuuden moraaliseen merkitykseen sekä erityisesti vammaisuuden ehkäisemiseen liittyviin eettisiin kysymyksiin. Teos soveltuu erityisesti yliopisto- ja ammattikorkeakoulupetukseen mutta on lisäksi painava puheenvuoro keskustelussa erilaisuuden haasteista.
