Disability As a Social Construct Legislative Roots

Wounded soldiers, injured workers, handicapped adults, and physically impaired children have all been affected by legislation that reduces their opportunities to live a functional life. In Disability as a Social Construct, Claire Liachowitz contends that disability is not merely a result of a handicap but can be imposed by society through devaluation and segregation of people who deviate from physical norms.Liachowitz, Claire H. is the author of 'Disability As a Social Construct Legislative Roots' with ISBN 9780812281347 and ISBN 0812281349.
