The Precarity of Disability Rights Historically and in the Trump Administration
The United States is experiencing an attack on disability rights unprecedented since the emergence of the modern Disability Rights Movement. This paper examines the various ways in which disability rights have been undercut in 2025. To do so, I provide a theoretical framework based in rights theory to reveal the precarity of disability rights and the strategy behind the actions taken by the Trump administration. I examine four key strategies to u…
The moral high bar
Constructing the Sociology of Disability
The sociology of disability has emerged relatively recently as a subfield in sociology and has seen growing institutionalization within the field, including the establishment of a section in the American Sociological Association. The field, however, is still emerging. There is not yet an American journal dedicated to it or more than a few textbooks. The small set of professors in this field, therefore, experience both the opportunity and the chal…
Disability Incarcerated
Disability Incarcerated gathers thirteen contributions from an impressive array of fields. Taken together, these essays assert that a complex understanding of disability is crucial to an understanding
Accessibility of Pennsylvania's Victim Assistance Programs
The prevalence of sexual abuse and domestic violence among women with disabilities is at least as high as the rates experienced by women without disabilities. However, according to anecdotal accounts and preliminary research, many victim service agencies are inaccessible and do not provide appropriate support and services for people with disabilities. This study examined the physical and programmatic accessibility of 55 rape crisis, sexual assaul…
Assistive Technology for All
Literature on access to assistive technology (AT), AT services, and AT funding, as well as literature on access to loans (i.e., mortgages and car loans) has indicated that people from minority populations tend to experience less access to and benefit from these programs. Given these trends, the question arises: To what extent does race affect access to AT through alternative financing programs? Using a national database of 10 participating states…
Beyond the Medical Model
The rise of eugenic restrictions in early twentieth century America reshaped the relationship between intellectual disability, citizenship, and the exercise of rights. To explain the rise of rights restrictions, scholarship has largely turned to the medicalisation of 'feeblemindedness', while overlooking mainstream concepts within citizenship studies. By drawing upon an institutional and relational approach to citizenship, I argue that factors in…
Gender and Compulsory Sterilization Programs in America
Current scholarship on compulsory sterilization and gender focuses almost exclusively on women as the targets of these programs. As Philip Reilly (1991:98) indicates, however, there occurred a "dramatic change" in the gender of those targeted for compulsory sterilizations in America. Prior to 1928 men were more likely to be sterilized, but, after 1928, women became far more likely to be sterilized. I use this shift as a focal point in examining t…
