About this title

Synopsis

This book delves into the complex notion of disability within the Indian context. It examines theoretical propositions about disability in South Asia and empirically investigates the lives of disabled individuals in India, not only introducing a previously unexplored academic realm but also connecting theory to reality and policy to practice. This makes it a significant contribution to South Asian development studies. The book presents a diverse range of perspectives from various disciplines, allowing for a comprehensive exploration of disability-related issues, from theoretical assumptions to subjective experiences. It will appeal to students, researchers, and professionals in disability studies, social sciences, mental health, and development studies.
