Down Syndrome Culture
People with Down syndrome possess a culture. They are producers of culture. And in the 21st century, this culture is increasingly visible as a global phenomenon. Down Syndrome Culture examines Down syndrome alongside its social, cultural, and artistic representation. Author Benjamin Fraser draws upon neomaterialist and posthumanist approaches to disability as well as the work of disability theorists such as David Mitchell, Sharon Snyder, Susan Antebi, Tobin Siebers, and Stuart Murray. By particularly focusing on Down syndrome, he showcases the unique place that it holds as an intellectual and developmental disability—one that fits between the social and medical models of disability—withi...

Disability and racial difference in Mexico's early post-revolutionary period
Hacia una antropología del cuidado
Comenzamos a dar cuenta de sí mismos en virtud de nuestra inevitable relación con los otros; esto significa que la escena de interpelación es un acto que entraña la postulación de un sujeto que no es autofundante sino constituido en un marco normativo de dependencia que hace posible la aparición de un encuentro entre el otro y yo. Dadas las circunstancias, el texto plantea como discusión central la experiencia de cuidadores de personas con síndrome de Down con la finalidad de desvelar la formación corporal de un sujeto cuidador que se enfrenta a un marco normativo de dependencia asediado por la regulación de género, la heteronormatividad y la integridad corporal obligatoria. Por a...

Entre la resistencia, el amor y la esperanza
En Argentina la implementación de programas fundados en la educación inclusiva de estudiantes con discapacidad en los niveles de escolaridad obligatoria sigue siendo una deuda del sistema educativo. El desfasaje entre los marcos conceptuales y normativos que abren el camino hacia la inclusión en relación con las prácticas escolares puede ser visualizado a partir del reclamo sostenido de los movimientos asociativos de familias de estudiantes con discapacidad, quienes se convirtieron en un dispositivo clave de resistencia y lucha para la plena efectivización del derecho a la educación inclusiva. A lo largo de más de diez años, las familias desarrollaron una activa labor dirigida a log...
Embodied Politics
Embodied Politics illuminates the influential force of public health promotion in indigenous migrant communities by examining the Indigenous Health Project (IHP), a culturally and linguistically competent initiative that uses health workshops, health messages, and social programs to mitigate the structural vulnerability of Oaxacan migrants in California. Embodied Politics reconstructs how this initiative came to exist and describes how it operates. At the same time, it points out the conflicts, resistances, and counter-acts that emerge through the IHP’s attempts to guide the health behaviors and practices of Triqui and Mixteco migrants. Arguing for a structurally competent approach to migrant health, Embodied Politics shows how efforts to promote indigenous health may actually reinforce the same social and political economic forces, namely structural racism and neoliberalism, that are undermining the health of indigenous Oaxacans in Mexico and the United States.
