Through analyses of theoretical propositions of disability in South Asia and empirical explorations of the lives of persons with disabilities in India, this book not only brings to the forefront a hitherto unexplored realm in academic discourse, but also bridges the gap between theory and lived reality, and between policy and practice. Thus, it is an important addition to the field of development studies in South Asia. The papers herein represent multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary perspectives from architects, lawyers, sociologists, political scientists, historians, economists and linguists to social work practitioners from the grassroots level. This range of insights from different disciplines allows for the exploration of a wide range of issues around disability and the lives of disabled people, moving from theoretical assumptions to exploring structural and infrastructural barriers, to problematizing different aspects of the lives of disabled people, and from objective realms to more subjective domains. Along with students and researchers of disability studies, this book is of interest to a diverse readership encompassing the social sciences, mental health, and development studies. 000763227 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed September 29, 2016). 000763227 650_0 $$aDisability studies$$zIndia. 000763227 7001_ $$aGhosh, Nandini. 000763227 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tInterrogating disability in India : theory and practice.$$dNew Delhi, [India] : Springer, ©2016$$z9788132235934 000763227 830_0 $$aDynamics of Asian development. 000763227 852__ $$bebk 000763227 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-81-322-3595-8$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000763227 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:763227$$pGLOBAL_SET 000763227 980__ $$aEBOOK 000763227 980__ $$aBIB 000763227 982__ $$aEbook 000763227 983__ $$aOnline 000763227 994__ $$a92$$bISE
