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-$01708515 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910807807503321 996 $aDisability and information technology$94097563 997 $aUNINA
