- This longer-form output (monograph) presents research conducted over many years investigating the theme of disability as it is imagined, and reimagined, through the cultural lens of ableism. As such it has involved the collection and analysis of a large body of material. This was necessary to present the argument that disabled people have been treated in Western society as good to mistreat, and subsequently with the rise of Christianity, good to be good to.
