Humanizing Disability and Inclusive Education Research in the Global South [Hardcover]

This edited volume features innovative contributions from researchers and practitioners in the global South who use qualitative methodologies to deconstruct colonial and positivist traditions in disability and inclusive education research. The editors extend ongoing intersectional dialogues in Critical Disability Studies (CDS) and Disability Critical Race Studies (DisCrit) by collaborating with leading disability scholars and activists worldwide. This collection offers innovative, humanizing, and internationally grounded disability-centric qualitative research practices that scholars, practitioners, and activists can apply in their own spaces of advocacy and praxis.
