An authoritative and indispensable guide to disability and media, this
thoughtfully curated collection features varied and provocative
contributions from distinguished scholars globally, alongside
next-generation research leaders.
Disability and media has emerged as a dynamic and exciting area of
contemporary culture and social life. Media-- especially digital
technology--play a vital role in disability transformations, with
widespread implications for global societies and how we understand
communications. This book addresses this development, from
representation and audience through technologies, innovations and
challenges of the field. Through the varied and global perspectives of
leading researchers, writers, and practitioners, including many authors
with lived experience of disability, it covers a wide range of
traditional, emergent and future media forms and formats.
International in scope and orientation, The Routledge Companion to
Disability and Media offers students and scholars alike a comprehensive
survey of the intersections between disability studies and media studies
