Disability, Education and Questions of Social Justice

This book looks at traditional intersectional conceptions of disability, including social class, race and sexuality alongside Marxist, Postmodernist and Posthumanist notions of society and education. It invites the reader to reflect on what these ideas can reveal about disability, education and social justice in society today. Drawing on a wide range of case studies, the book reflects on what it means to be disabled and puts forward the case for urgent political, cutural, educational and social change. Including reflective tasks and discussion activities, this will be valuable reading for those studying education studies or disability studies at undergraduate and postgraduate level.
