The authors highlight the economic consequences of a disabling culture, and explore how autism fits within broader arguments related to normality, abnormality and stigma. To do this, they provide a theoretically and historically grounded discussion of autism—one designed to layer and complicate the discussions that surround autism and disability in schools, health clinics, and society writ large. In addition, they locate this discussion across two contexts – the US and the UK – and draw upon empirical examples to illustrate the key points. Located at the intersection of critical disability studies and discourse studies, the book offers a critical reframing of autism and childhood mental health disorders more generally. .Education, Equity, Economy,2364-8368 ;9Educational sociologyEducation and stateSchool psychologyDevelopmental psychologyBiotechnologySociology of EducationEducational Policy and PoliticsSchool PsychologyDevelopmental PsychologyBiotechnologyChild and Adolescence PsychologyEducational sociology.Education and state.School psychology.Developmental psychology.Biotechnology.Sociology of Education.Educational Policy and Politics.School Psychology.Developmental Psychology.Biotechnology.Child and Adolescence Psychology.616.85882Lester Jessica Nina767339O'Reilly MichelleMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910508463503321The social, cultural, and political discourses of autism2904764UNINA
