Although many commentators have lamented the apathy of the American citizenry, Brian Adams focuses on what makes ordinary Americans become involved in and attempt to influence public policy issues that concern them. It connects theory and empirical data in a new and revealing way, providing both a thorough review of the relevant scholarly discussions and a detailed case study of citizen engagement in the politics of Santa Ana, a mid-sized Southern California city.

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. 410 0$aCambridge disability law and policy series. 517 3 $aActive Citizenship & Disability 606 $aPeople with disabilities$xLegal status, laws, etc 615 0$aPeople with disabilities$xLegal status, laws, etc. 676 $a362.4/04561 686 $aPOL035010$2bisacsh 700 $aPower$b Andrew$f1979-$01555401 702 $aLord$b Janet E.$f1966- 702 $aDeFranco$b Allison S.$f1983- 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910779439003321 996 $aActive citizenship and disability$93817259 997 $aUNINA
