- Dis/ability Studies is based on two decades of research and scholarship by the author drawing on extensive empirical data and analyses from a range of funded projects and publications. A novel approach is proposed for the theorisation of dis/ability: the simultaneous engagement with the conditions of disablism (the social, political, cultural and psycho-emotional exclusion of people with physical, sensory and/or cognitive impairments) and ableism (the contemporary ideals on which the able, autonomous, productive citizen is based).
