The Sociology of Disability and Inclusive Education (eBook, ePUB)

A Tribute to Len Barton
Redaktion: Arnot, Madeleine

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Len Barton's intellectual and practical contribution to the sociology of disability and education is well-known and highly significant. This collection addresses the challenge that the social model of disability has presented to dominant medicalised concepts, categories and practices, and their power to define the identity and the lives of others. Expert scholars explore a wide range of topics, including difference as a field of political struggle; the relationship of disability studies, disabled people and their struggle for inclusion; radical activism: organic intellectuals and the disability movement; discrimination, exclusion and effective change; inclusive education; the 'politics of hope', resilience and transformative actions; and universal pedagogy, human rights and citizenship debates. This book was originally published as a special issue of the British Journal of Sociology of Education.
