The presentation will include a history of the foundation of disability studies in the humanities in the US and the UK.  What was disability studies like in the 1990’s and what were the major themes and concerns.  The talk will then trace the growth and development of the field up to the current moment.  What has been the influence of identity politics?  Is there a shift from rights-based concerns to a broader view of social justice? How does class and poverty factor into current and previous discussions?  How has the dissemination of disability studies to different countries and global regions changed the emphasis of the originary investigation? Is there a single discourse of disability studies or must we think locally in all instances? How has disability policy varied in differing political regimes?  Is there a difference between post-Soviet societies in Eastern Europe, for example, versus strongly state-sponsored programs like those in Singapore?  What will be the future of disability and disability studies?
