Writing from an 'anti-subordination perspective', Professor Colker provides a framework for the courts and society to consider what programs or policies are most likely to lead to substantive equality for individuals with disabilities. In some contexts, she argues for more tolerance of disability-specific programs and, in other contexts, she argues for more disability-integrated programs. Her highly practical investigation includes the topics of K-12 education, higher education, employment, voting, and provision of health care. At the end of the book, she applies this perspective to the racial arena, arguing that school districts should be given latitude to implement more use of racial criteria to attain integrated schools because such environments are most likely to help attain substantive equality from an anti-subordination perspective. The book measures the attainment of equality not on the basis of worn-out mantras but instead on the basis of substantive gains.Cambridge disability law and policy series.People with disabilitiesLegal status, laws, etcUnited StatesPeople with disabilitiesLegal status, laws, etc.342.7308/7Colker Ruth725563MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910811091203321When is separate unequal3987805UNINA
