The Disabling State of an Active Society is based on a detailed ethnographic study of the highly praised Swedish rehabilitation organization Samhall, one of Scandinavia's largest corporations. Based on his empirical findings, Holmqvist makes controversial claims about the effects of activation programmes on their participants. The result is a key volume for those working and studying within welfare, poverty, disability and special needs.
