| Popis: | A recent symposium on the geographies of disability at the 2007 Association of American Geographers meeting attracted papers and panel contributions from 46 researchers. In this commentary, we draw on the content of the symposium to discuss recent developments in disability geography scholarship. We focus on three broad themes that ran through many of the contributions. These are: the evolving parameters of disability and chronic illness; the complex relationship between disabilities and technologies; and the struggle for citizenship. |
