McWade, Brigit, Milton, Damian, Beresford, Peter (2015) Mad studies and neurodiversity: a dialogue. Disability and Society, 30 (2). pp. 305-309. ISSN 0968-7599. E-ISSN 1360-0508. (doi:10.1080/09687599.2014.1000512) (KAR id:62630)

Abstract

In this paper we explore what we consider to be the shared concerns of those neurodivergent and/or mad-identified scholars and activists who are seeking to make space for themselves within the academy. In doing so, we consider what critical questions and action people involved in these could address together in ways that move beyond identity-based politics.
