Disability Identity Shift

Disability Identity Shift explores the transformation of disability from a medical diagnosis to a potent source of identity and political power. It examines how societal and political forces have reshaped perceptions, language, and self-understanding within the disability community. The book highlights the cultural construction of disability, moving away from purely medical models, which is crucial for dismantling societal barriers. It also examines the politics surrounding disability rights, revealing ongoing struggles for accessibility and inclusion. The book argues that disability identity has evolved into a source of pride, community, and political influence. This evolution is a collective movement challenging ableism and demanding social justice.

Beginning with the historical roots of disability identity, the book progresses through cultural factors shaping perceptions, political mobilization efforts, and concludes with a discussion of future trends and challenges. The book uses historical analysis, legal documents, media content analysis, and personal narratives to support its arguments. It offers a unique perspective by focusing on the intersection of culture, politics, and identity, making it valuable for students, researchers, policymakers, and anyone interested in understanding disability rights and identity.
