Margins of Voices

This collection of essays examines the multifaceted discourses that categorize persons with disabilities as 'other'. It brings into discussion representational politics surrounding person(s) with disabilities within the normatively structured society. The book discusses the many, often overlooked challenges faced by individuals with disabilities and seeks to critique the prevailing political clichés, myths, and taboos through humanistic inquiry and analytical frameworks of social sciences. This anthology aspires to familiarize the readers with the diverse obstacles that persons with disabilities encounter in their daily lives, thus aiming to promote an awareness of their socio-cultural, economic, and political exclusions.
