Disability Studies Quarterly Winter 2005 Issue Available Online
The Winter 2005 issue of Disability Studies Quarterly (Volume 25, no. 1) has just been posted.
Please go to DSQ's home page (www.dsq-sds.org) and click on "Current Issue" -- the second listing under "Main Menu."
This issue features six "General Papers," whose topics range widely, from: government disability-related policy and practices (three articles concerned with different politico-cultural entities: India, the UK and the US); an examination of a religious theme; a continuation of the Fall 2004 theme about disability studies in education of health professionals, specifically medical students; and even an analysis of Hip-Hop from the perspective of disability activism.
In addition, there is a Commentary analyzing poetry, and a Fiction piece. Finally, this issue has a rich trove of fully 10 reviews of books and film, including one review of a TV show.
For a limited time only, the entire issue is available free. In a few weeks, this and future issues of DSQ will become "password protected." Members of the Society for Disability Studies will receive unique passwords and continue to have free access. Others are encouraged to become SDS members (a link to the SDS membership form is on DSQ's home page), but will have the alternative of taking a paid subscription.
