Book Ableism in Education

    Book Details:
  • Author : Gillian Parekh
  • Publisher : Taylor & Francis
  • Release : 2023-09-01
  • ISBN : 100384510X
  • Pages : 167 pages

Download or read book Ableism in Education written by Gillian Parekh and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-09-01 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How we organize children by ability in schools is often rooted in ableism. Ability is so central to schooling—where we explicitly and continuously shape, assess, measure, and report on students’ abilities—that ability-based decisions often appear logical and natural. However, how schools respond to ability results in very real, lifelong social and economic consequences. Special education and academic streaming (or tracking) are two of the most prominent ability-based strategies public schools use to organize student learning. Both have had a long and complicated relationship with gender, race, and class. In this down-to-earth guide, Dr. Gillian Parekh unpacks the realities of how ability and disability play out within schooling, including insights from students, teachers, and administrators about the barriers faced by students on the basis of ability. From the challenges with ability testing to gifted programs to the disability rights movement, Parekh shows how ableism is inextricably linked to other forms of bias. Her book is a powerful tool for educators committed to justice-seeking practices in schools.

Book Disabling Criminal Justice

    Book Details:
  • Author : Marie Tidball
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing
  • Release : 2024-02-22
  • ISBN : 1509956964
  • Pages : 291 pages

Download or read book Disabling Criminal Justice written by Marie Tidball and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2024-02-22 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book considers the governance of autistic defendants and offenders in the UK courts. Utilising the social model of disability, it considers the dominant strategies of governance, including 'vulnerability', which the author argues obscures the rights of disabled people in the criminal justice system. In doing so it sheds light on how this group should be governed. Drawing on rigorously-researched case studies of autistic adult defendants through the court process, the book brings together relevant legal and policy literature, criminological and criminal justice theory and disability studies to provide insight into the 'dividing practices' that affect the governance of disabled defendants' conduct. Using interviews with elites and practitioners, textual analysis, and court observation of eight autistic adult defendants through their court process, the book investigates why the status of autistic defendants as disabled under the Equality Act 2010 has been overlooked in criminal justice policy and criminal court decision-making. It explores the impact of the 'collateral' effects and 'symbiotic harm' of the criminal justice process on family members who support these defendants through the criminal justice process.
