      abstract = {Autism is a complex phenomenon that is both individual and  social. Showing both robust similarities and intriguing  differences across cultural contexts, the autism spectrum  raises innumerable questions about self, subjectivity, and  society in a globalized world. Yet it is often  misrepresented as a problem of broken bodies and disordered  brains. So, in 2015, a group of interdisciplinary scholars  gathered in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil for an intellectual  experiment: a workshop that joined approaches from  psychological anthropology to the South American tradition  of Collective Health in order to consider autism within  social, historical, and political settings. This book is  the product of the ongoing conversation emerging from this  event. It contains a series of comparative histories of  autism policy in Italy, Brazil, and the United States;  focuses on issues of voice, narrative, and representation  in autism; and examines how the concept of autism shapes  both individual lives and broader social and economic  systems.},
