The collection has been curated into six different areas:
DISABILITY IN THE MODERN WORLD: HISTORY OF A SOCIAL MOVEMENT
One person in seven experiences disability, yet the story of this community and its contributions is largely absent from the scholarly record. Disability in the Modern World: History of a Social Movement is a landmark online collection that fills the gap, with a comprehensive and international set of resources to enrich study in a wide range of disciplines from media studies to philosophy.
