Disabling Migration Controls

Shared Learning, Solidarity, and Collective Resistance

Beschreibung

Drawing on many years of research and activism, this book argues that insights from the disabled people's movement, particularly the original Social Model of Disability, can be usefully extended to focus resistance on the disabling restrictions imposed on people subject to asylum and immigration controls.
