Addressing the evolution of disability policies and provision, it shows how a range of different actors became engaged in shaping the disability services landscape during this period. Drawing on a variety of sources, from government memoranda to RTE´ television programmes, David Kilgannon traces the development of disability services on paper and in reality. This narrative is marked by instances of both striking transformation and significant continuity, as the emergence of new policy thinking occurred in tandem with the consolidation of established approaches. The book describes not only how services changed but why, offering a unique perspective on the evolution of Irish social policy in the post-war years. 517 $aIntellectual Disability and Ireland, 1947â??1996 517 $aIntellectual Disability and Ireland, 1947?1996 606 $aPeople with mental disabilities 606 $aIntellectual disability 606 $aIntellectual disability 610 00$atwentieth-century Ireland 610 00$adisability histories 610 00$astatutory policy 610 00$asocial change 610 00$amedical history 615 0$aPeople with mental disabilities. 615 0$aIntellectual disability. 615 0$aIntellectual disability. 676 $a616.8588 700 $aKilgannon$b David$01453038 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910745583003321 996 $aIntellectual Disability and Ireland, 1947?1996 : Towards A Full Life$93655496 997 $aUNINA
