ANT 335 - Anthropology of Disability and Ableism
Disability and ableism are critically examined through an anthropological lens, problematizing normative cultural paradigms of embodiment. An analytic framework is used to understand disability in diverse cross-cultural settings; how it is shaped socially (through identities of race, class, gender, sexuality), medically, politically, and situated within histories. Offered winter semester.
