Description
Disability and Citizenship Studies by Marie Sépulchre explores how equal citizenship rights can be achieved but not fully enjoyed due to structural inequality. The book examines disability as a distinct social division and approaches citizenship as a developing institution, drawing on empirical analysis of disability activists in Sweden. It sheds light on the inequality and domination faced by disabled people in Sweden and highlights their proactive ideas for constructing a more equal citizenship. This book will be of interest to scholars, activists, and policymakers in fields such as disability, citizenship, social inequality, human rights, politics, activism, social welfare, and sociology.
