It explores how these principles have been enshrined in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities and how different jurisdictions have implemented them to enable meaningful engagement and participation by persons with disabilities in society. The philosophy of 'active citizenship' underpinning the Convention - that all citizens should (be able to) actively participate in the community - provides the core focal point of this book, which grounds its analysis in exploring how this goal has been imagined and implemented across a range of countries. The case studies examine how different jurisdictions have reformed disability law and policy and reconfigured how support is administered and funded to ensure maximum choice and independence is accorded to people with disabilities.Cambridge disability law and policy series.Active Citizenship & DisabilityPeople with disabilitiesLegal status, laws, etcPeople with disabilitiesLegal status, laws, etc.362.4/04561POL035010bisacshPower Andrew1979-1669551Lord Janet E.1966-DeFranco Allison S.1983-UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910827132503321Active citizenship and disability4030785UNINA
