The act of life is a lived experience, common and unique, that ties each
of us to every other lived experience. The fact of disability does not alter
this fundamental truth.
In this edition of Rethinking Disability: World Perspectives in Culture
and Society, we are presented with a system of thinking that considers
the values of disability, as a resource, as a creative source of culture
that moves disability out of the realm of victimized people and insurmountable
barriers, and provides opportunities to use the experience
of disability to enter into networks that recognize strengths of differing
abilities. The authors within will intrigue you, will move you, will charm
you, but always will challenge your notion of sameness and difference as
they confront the construct and (de)construct of disability and ableism.
They present compelling arguments for viewing disABILITY through the
multiple lenses of disability culture. They explore themes and issues that
transcend past and origins, time and place, nuances of genetics, to experiences
of present and becoming, and towards the future and beyond
mere human, yet always intrinsically connected to being human.
This book is intended for all audiences who dare to confront difference
and sameness within themselves and in connection with others; to
inspire researchers who wish to explore, and examine disability across
social, cultural and economic barriers. It is an invitation to push away
the barriers, bring ableism inside to a place where the prosthesis is no
longer the elephant in the room.
