International Disability Rights Advocacy: Languages of Moral Knowledge and Institutional Critique Pateisky Daniel
This book provides insight into the globally interlinked disability rights community and its political efforts today. At the same time, cross-cultural disability rights advocacy requires images of uniformity to stabilise its By analysing what disability rights activism contributes to a global power apparatus of disability-related knowledge, it demonstrates how disability advocacy influences the way we categorise, classify, distribute, manipulate, and therefore transform knowledge.By unpacking the mutually constitutive relations between (practical) moral knowledge of international disability advocates and (formal) disability rights norms that are codified in international treaties such as the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD), the author shows that the disability rights movement is largely critical of statements that attempt to streamline it.
