Dr. Victor Santiago Pineda?s work will be read for decades, as a foundation for future research on the application of the capabilities approach to social justice.? ? Anand Jayaprakash Vaidya, Professor of Philosophy San Jose State University, California, USA This Open Access book is an anthropological urban study of the Emirate of Dubai, its institutions, and their evolution. It provides a contemporary history of disability in city planning from a non-Western perspective and explores the cultural context for its positioning. Three insights inform the author?s approach. First, disability research, much like other urban or social issues, must be situated in a particular place. Second, access and inclusion forms a key part of both local and global planning issues. Third, a 21st century planning education should take access and inclusion into consideration by applying a disability lens to the empirical, methodological, and theoretical advances of the field. By bridging theory and practice, this book provides new insights on inclusive city planning and comparative urban theory. This book should be read as part of a larger struggle to define and assert access; it?s a story of how equity and justice are central themes in building the cities of the future and of today. 606 $aSociology, Urban 606 $aPeople with disabilities 606 $aPublic policy 606 $aSocial justice 606 $aHuman rights 606 $aEthnology?Middle East  606 $aUrban Studies/Sociology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22250 606 $aDisability Studies$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22280 606 $aPublic Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911060 606 $aSocial Justice, Equality and Human Rights$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X33070 606 $aMiddle Eastern Culture$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411110 615 0$aSociology, Urban. 615 0$aPeople with disabilities. 615 0$aPublic policy. 615 0$aSocial justice. 615 0$aHuman rights. 615 0$aEthnology?Middle East . 615 14$aUrban Studies/Sociology. 615 24$aDisability Studies. 615 24$aPublic Policy. 615 24$aSocial Justice, Equality and Human Rights. 615 24$aMiddle Eastern Culture. 676 $a307.76 700 $aPineda$b Victor Santiago$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0904515 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910370057103321 996 $aBuilding the Inclusive City$92022465 997 $aUNINA
