Lessons to be learnt? : Reflection on the case studies. 330 $aDisability and Information Technology examines the extent to which regulatory frameworks for information and communication technologies (ICTs) safeguard the rights of persons with disabilities as citizenship rights. It adopts a comparative approach focused on four case studies: Canada, the European Union, the United Kingdom and the United States. It focuses on the tension between social and economic values in the regulation of ICTs and calls for a regulatory approach based on a framework of principles that reflects citizenship values. The analysis identifies challenges encountered in the jurisdictions examined and points toward the rights-based approach advanced by the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities as a benchmark in protecting the rights of persons with disabilities to have equal access to information. The research draws on a wealth of resources, including legislation, cases, interviews, consultation documents and responses from organisations representing persons with disabilities. 410 0$aCambridge disability law and policy series. 517 3 $aDisability & Information Technology 606 $aPeople with disabilities$xInformation techology$vCase studies 606 $aPeople with disabilities$xServices for$xData processing$vCase studies 606 $aComputers and people with disabilities$vCase studies 606 $aPeople with disabilities$xLegal status, laws, etc$vCase studies 606 $aMass media$xLaw and legislation$vCase studies 606 $aLibraries and people with disabilities$vCase studies 615 0$aPeople with disabilities$xInformation techology 615 0$aPeople with disabilities$xServices for$xData processing 615 0$aComputers and people with disabilities 615 0$aPeople with disabilities$xLegal status, laws, etc. 615 0$aMass media$xLaw and legislation 615 0$aLibraries and people with disabilities 676 $a004.087 700 $aVarney$b Eliza$f1978-$01537441 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910786131903321 996 $aDisability and information technology$93786743 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03210nam 22006013c 450 001 9910984659003321 005 20240521095139.0 010 $a9781503637665 010 $a1503637662 024 7 $a10.1515/9781503637665 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC30780405 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL30780405 035 $a(DE-B1597)666679 035 $a(DE-B1597)9781503637665 035 $a(CKB)28483687100041 035 $a(OCoLC)1402820021 035 $a(EXLCZ)9928483687100041 100 $a20231012d2023 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aDeath Dust $eThe Rise, Decline, and Future of Radiological Weapons Programs$fWilliam C.

Death Dust explores the largely unknown history of the development of radiological weapons (RW)--weapons designed to disperse radioactive material without a nuclear detonation--through a series of comparative case studies across the United States, the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom, Iraq, and Egypt. The authors illuminate the historical drivers of and impediments to radiological weapons innovation. They also examine how new, dire geopolitical events--such as the war in Ukraine--could encourage other states to pursue RW and analyze the impact of the spread of such weapons on nuclear deterrence and the nonproliferation regime. Death Dust presents practical, necessary steps to reduce the likelihood of a resurgence of interest in and pursuit of radiological weapons by state actors"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aDirty bombs$xGovernment policy$xHistory 606 $aMilitary weapons$xTechnological innovations$xHistory 606 $aMilitary policy$xHistory 615 0$aDirty bombs$xGovernment policy$xHistory. 615 0$aMilitary weapons$xTechnological innovations$xHistory. 615 0$aMilitary policy$xHistory. 676 $a355/.0335 700 $aPotter$b William C$0303517 701 $aBidgood$b Sarah$01793329 701 $aMeyer$b Samuel$01793330 701 $aNotte$b Hanna$01793331 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910984659003321 996 $aDeath Dust$94333037 997 $aUNINA
