Making community inclusion work for persons with disabilities
With the ratification of the United Nations Convention of Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD), questions of community inclusion of persons with disabilities have gained considerable attention. While the principles of inclusion have been clearly defined through the CRPD, the dearth of critical assessment of ongoing processes and outcomes of community-based inclusive development prevents a more comprehensive understanding of the present achi…
Ableing work, Disableing workers
Grounded within the substantive conception of ableism (Wolbring 2008 Wolbring, G. 2008. “The Politics of Ableism.” Development 51 (2): 252–258. doi: 10.1057/dev.2008.17[Crossref] , [Google Scholar]), this article explores the prejudices and discriminations that arise out of many different forms of ableism: of bodily abilities/disabilities, gender, social structure, and economic organisation.

Under-explored Threats to Privacy
The analysis of societal implications of surveillance technologies has amplified over the past two decades. However, a review of literature suggests that surveillance-and-society studies have overlooked clandestine mechanisms that permit theft of data through electro-magnetic radiations from offline computer screens and the use of see-through-wall technologies. The purpose of this paper is to draw attention to these surreptitious techniques, thei…
Privacy and security in the digital age
Privacy is at the core of civil rights from which all other human rights and freedoms flow. Since the twentieth century, and particularly since 9/11, rapid deployment of information and surveillance technologies in the name of national security has grave implications for individual privacy and human rights. This article reviews major strands in contemporary privacy-security debate, while critiquing existing conceptualisations of privacy that are …
