Disability Politics in a Global Economy: Essays in Honour of Marta Russell de Ravi Malhotra

Disability Politics in a Global Economy: Essays in Honour of Marta Russell

Editat de Ravi Malhotra
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 15 aug 2016
While the visibility of disability studies has increased in recent years, few have thoroughly examined the marginalization of people with disabilities through the lens of political economy. This was the great contribution of Marta Russell (1951-2013), an activist and prominent scholar in the United States and best known for her analyses of the issues faced by people with disabilities.
This book examines the legacy of Marta Russell, bringing together distinguished scholars and activists such as Anne Finger, Nirmala Erevelles and Mark Weber, to explicate current issues relevant to the empowerment of people with disabilities. Drawing from various fields including Law, Political Economy, Education and History, the book takes a truly interdisciplinary approach, offering a body of work that develops a dextrous understanding of the marginalization of people with disabilities.
The book will be of great use and interest to specialists and students in the fields of Political Economy, Law and Society, Labour Studies, Disability Studies, Women’s Studies, and Political Science.

Recenzii

"Malhotra and Rowe's Exploring Disability Identity and Disability Rights Through Narratives is an excellent example of activist scholarship. As they point out, 'traditional research has been criticized for often resulting in supposedly objective descriptions of the life experiences of disabled people, intended for non-disabled audiences, which had little to say and less to advocate in regards to changing mainstream policy' […] Overall, I commend the authors' contribution to the growing body of literature in cross-disciplinary participatory research."  Review in Disability & Society Volume 30, Issue 5, 2015 by Sara María Acevedo, California Institute of Integral Studies
"A further strength of the book is the delicate balance between rich personal narratives and coverage of societal legal issues. […] there is an abundance of scholarship in this book that allows readers to choose what they want to focus on, and likely repeatedly return to this book." Review in PsycCRITIQUES Vol. 60, No. 16, 2015 by Maria I. Medved, University of Manitoba
