“…At the root of disability culture is a common link between individuals with disabilities, shared experiences of societal oppression and related political struggles, history, and language. 62 Movements such as consumerism, self-help, demedicalization and self-care, deinstitutionalization, and empowerment are reflected in the growth of a disability culture. For example, the consumerism movement led to the belief that any consumer of disability services ''has a right to control what he or she receives, and consequently has a role in the formulation of policy and in the development of quality standards.''…”

Health promotion programs for people with disabilities are in the early stages of development. This critical review utilizes a credentialed expert panel to develop a set of guidelines for community-based health promotion programs for individuals with disabilities. The procedures include a review of background material, systematic literature review with drafted guidelines consisting of operational, participation and accessibility recommendations. The role that those with disabilities can play is addressed and includes program planning, implementation and evaluation, physical and programmatic accessibility of programs, and importance of evidence-based practices.

“…The author contends, as others have (Brown, 1996, 2002; M. A. Jones, 2002), that through consistent inclusion in journalism course structure, disability culture is placed front-of-mind for students and has the potential to influence the way journalism graduates become journalists and assume other roles in the workplace.…”

This essay explores disability studies in broadcast journalism education and seeks to help answer a question faced by teachers: Does the material discussed in class make a difference in their lives, including how they approach their work? This essay draws on a case study of university broadcast journalism students who took part in classes that explored the representation of people with disability (PWD) in the media. It looks at whether diversity studies are relevant to the post-university lives of journalism students and whether it has affected the way they report about PWD.

“…With regard to topoi of appreciation – the philosophy of the present and the becoming – Goodley (2007: 146) argues that they belong to ‘late modern forms of societal progress’. Goodley’s historical positioning parallels Brown’s (2002: 40–2) positioning of an overarching ‘disability pride/rights/culture paradigm’, which ‘people with disabilities have forged’ in the last two or three decades.…”

Recent research has highlighted how parental narratives can be important in the resistance against disabling processes. This article contains analyses of enabling language in narratives published by Scandinavian disability rights organizations. First, drawing on the work of Fisher and Goodley, I point out that the material constitute a threefold: normality narratives, resistance narratives, and narratives that demonstrate an appreciation of the present and the child's individual alterity. Second, I demonstrate that the last narrative draws on Romanticism rather than linguistic resources from disability culture. Third, I show that these narratives are hyperboles -texts that strengthen and emphasise the valuation to the point where the narrative structure transcends narrative consistency. Fourth, drawing on the work of Kristeva, I argue that this form of narration constitutes an intimate politics of love.
