Escaping (Chrono)normative Youth Futures
The transitions to adulthood for disabled young people in the UK have long been marked by multiple barriers that have implications for their adult futures. While these dynamics have been considered in disability studies, they have been given less emphasis in critical youth studies. This article brings together critical disability studies and critical youth studies to explore the affective costs embedded in the normative underpinnings which frame …
Cultivating Collaboration
In this article we reflect on our approach to embedding a problem-based learning, or PBL, module into the first year of Sociology and Criminology programmes at the University of York. 'Investigating Social Problems' is a core module that uses PBL principles to support our students to develop collaborative work and independent learning skills. We explore our experiences of developing the module, focusing on the value of collaboration as both a met…
Fitting comfortably together
This article reports a UK study in which 12 young disabled adults took part in in-depth qualitative interviews that explored how gender and sexuality mattered for their personal assistance. We draw on queer, trans, and disabled feminist research and theory to discuss the ways that genders and sexualities are part of the decisions that young disabled adults make when arranging and managing their personal support, from drafting support plans and re…
Disabled people negotiate gender, sexual identity and self-directed social care support in England
Putting disabled people in charge of their own support was a central component of the UK personalisation agenda. Austerity, staff recruitment difficulties and local authority retrenchment have meant that the experience for disabled people has not always lived up to the rhetorical promise. In this context, disabled people with marginalised sexual and/or gender identities face difficult choices in everyday interactions of support that trouble the i…
Creating Time for LGBT+ Disabled Youth
This article explores how 'chrononormative' constructions of time shape research and offers an approach to co-production and research involvement that draws on insights from trans, queer, and disability studies. The article presents early reflections on an NIHR School for Social Care-funded research study, approved prior to but developed under the context of the Covid-19 pandemic, investigating personal support, sexuality, and gender in young dis…
Building a Community for Queer Disability Studies
This article describes the Queer Disability Studies Network, a space set up for Queer Disability Studies academics and activists to find solidarity, particularly those experiencing marginalisation due to queerphobia, transphobia, intersexphobia and ableism in Disability, Queer, Trans and Intersex Studies; and for ideas in these disciplines to inform one another. The network was established to oppose the institutionalisation of ideas that would de…
Création d’une communauté réunissant les études queer sur le handicap
Cet article décrit le Queer Disability Studies Network (Réseau d’études queer sur le handicap), un espace créé pour les universitaires et les militantes et militants des études queer sur le handicap afin de bénéficier de solidarités, au sein des études sur le handicap, queer, trans et intersexe, en particulier pour les personnes marginalisées en raison de la queerphobie, de la transphobie, de l’intersexephobie et du capacitisme. Cet espace permet…
Sociological Research in the Digital Age
Visual methods and voice in disabled childhoods research
Visual methods are a popular way of engaging children and young people in research. Their growth comes out of a desire to make research practice more appropriate and meaningful to them. The auteur approach emphasises the need to explore with young participants why they produce the images they do, so that adult researchers do not impose their own readings. This article, while recognising the value of such visual techniques, argues that their benef…
Uneasy encounters
Youthful Stories of Normality and Difference
In recent decades a critical sociology and politics of difference has been at the forefront of the study of normality. Key aims of this are to contest hierarchies of privilege and to question appeals to sameness as the basis for inclusion. Analysing data from two studies carried out in the north east of England (one with disabled youths and one with lesbian and gay youths), this article responds to this work by examining young people's negotiatio…
Youth and disability
Lesbian and gay youth and the question of labels
Studies of non-heterosexual youth show a resistance to sexual labels. The term post-gay has been used to describe an identity undefined by labels, and is presented as evidence of a new sexual fluidity. Drawing on qualitative interviews with self-identified lesbian and gay youth from the north east of England, this article provides a different account of the use of labels. Instead of evidencing the rejection of labels, it shows how lesbian and gay…
The unfinished body
Stories about disability are heavily shaped by the narratives offered by medicine and society. Those narratives enact an 'anomalous' body that is constructed as distant from the norm and therefore 'damaged' but also fixable. In this paper we explore how such narratives, and the practices they encompass, influence the stories disabled young people tell about their bodies and impairment. We do so by drawing on narrative qualitative interviews and v…
The interactions of disability and impairment
Theoretical work on disability is going through an expansive period, built on the growing recognition of disability studies as a discipline and out of the political and analytical push to bring disability into a prominent position within accounts of the intersecting social categories that shape people's lives. A current debate within critical disability studies is whether that study should include impairment and embodiment within its focus. This …
