Disability in the Modern World: History of a Social Movement

Disability in the Modern World is a landmark online collection that fills the gap in academic literature about the community and contributions of people who experience disability, with a comprehensive and international set of resources to enrich study in a wide range of disciplines from media studies to philosophy.  Disability in the Modern World includes primary sources, supporting materials, archives, documentaries, and interviews. The content is essential for teaching and research not only in the growing discipline of disability history and disability studies, but also in history, media, the arts, political science, education, and other areas where the contributions of the disability community are typically overlooked. Disability in the Modern World will include 150,000 pages of primary sources, supporting materials, and archives, along with 125 hours of video, and it was a 2020 Outstanding Academic Title by Choice.  This is a perpetual access purchase.
