Institutional Violence against People with Disability
International and Australian domestic evidence suggest that the prevalence of violence against people with disability is substantially higher than for the rest of the community. Much of the violence experienced by people with disability in Australia occurs within the purview of a variety of institutions, including group homes, large residential institutions, Australian Disability Enterprises (that is, disability employment facilities), schools, p…
Normality and disability
This special issue of Continuum is published in a conjuncture where there is increased scholarly attention to the positioning as ‘abnormal’ of people designated as disabled, as well as people designated to other marginalized and denigrated categories (such as queer, chronic illness, racial and Indigenous minorities, poverty and criminality). Scholars have critiqued the cultural and material role of technologies of diagnosis and therapy, and disco…
Forgetting Rape
The discovery that propranolol, a beta-blocker, can reduce the effect of traumatic memory has been a source of great excitement for many, especially those bioethicists committed to the future benefits of new discoveries in medical science. According to this scholarly commentary, the injustice of rape seems to lie in the impact of the traumatic memory; so propranolol is an ideal solution. Injustice, here, is thought to be a problem solely in its p…
Figuring (Wounded) Detachment
The discovery that propranolol, a very safe drug used for many years, also ‘dampens’ traumatic memory has been hailed as an ethical solution to all kinds of trauma, especially that experienced by soldiers and by rape survivors. This paper seeks to consider what it might mean to be able to forget the trauma associated with a gendered injustice such as rape. It explores first the current political and legal significance of rape, considering the way…
The State of the Union
Introduction Marriage constitutes a surprisingly dense site in contemporary cultural logics. The fantasies about romance, commitment and relationships, proliferating across a range of media contexts (see Cadwallader and Heise in this issue), often obscure the way that marriage is used politically to discipline and administrate the population. Indeed, as Baird maps (this volume), the movement for same-sex marriage in Australia has turned from the …
(Un)expected suffering
Recent theoretical developments in the feminist conceptualization of embodiment have radically reworked the ways that the body can be thought. In many respects, this challenges the understanding not only of the body as medicine deploys it, but also our understandings of suffering, illness, and pathology. I argue that (un)expected suffering is a particular difficulty in clinical settings, both in the form of suffering that is expected but not expe…
Memorialising and Forgetting
‘Modifying bodies’ evokes two different kinds of bodies, too often thought of as separate: those bodies which are modified, and those which call for and enact the modification. This paper seeks to explore the ethical and political significance of the modification of ‘intersexed’ bodies, using Rosalyn Diprose's concept of ‘corporeal generosity’. It argues that the visceral reaction to the bodies of those not recognised within the regimes of sexual…

Stirring up the sediment
The centrality of Cartesian dualism to practices of university pedagogy obscures the role that bodily being-in-the-world plays in learning and teaching. This article uses Merleau-Ponty's account of embodiment to explore the pedagogical capacity of disability, specifically in relation to two university courses. I argue that the disabled other offers such radical difference that it intervenes, as Lévinas puts it, anachronistically, in the synchroni…

Suffering Difference
Suffering is all too often treated as a neutral, natural response to a wrong; as such, it is often taken as the grounding for, rather than the object of, critique. This paper engages more directly with suffering through a discussion of three techniques of bodily alteration that aim to normalise bodily “wrongs”: limb-lengthening surgery, the use of synthetic growth hormones, and cosmetic foot surgery. In considering the use of the word “suffering”…
