- Double-weighted statement
- We propose this output for double-weighting as it represents the culmination of a complex, full-time investigation into the topic over three years. The research adopts an interdisciplinary lens on the critical issue of relationality within mental capacity law, combining the resources of phenomenology, feminist philosophy, legal analysis, and disability studies to provide unique analytical insights and conclusions which advance research in this area. The research utilises a complex methodology that works dialectically between actual legal cases and theoretical analysis, to enhance understanding of the empirical realities of mental capacity cases as well as normative theory around disability, autonomy, and relationality.
