Books in the Corporealities: Discourses of Disability series

Brings together disability studies and institutional critique to recognise the ways that disability is composed in and by higher education, and rewrites the spaces, times, and economies of disability in higher education to place disability front and centre. For too long disability has been constructed as the antithesis of higher education, often positioned as a distraction, a problem to be solved.
