Over the past fifty years, design and branding have become omnipotent in the market and have made their way to other domains as well. Given their potential to divide humans into categories and label their worth and value, design and branding can wield immense but currently unharnessed powers of social change. Groups designed as devalued can be undesigned, redesigned and rebranded to seamlessly and equivalently participate in community, work and civic life. This innovative book argues that disability as a concept and category is created, reified, and segregated through current design and brandi

Disability Rhetoric is the first book to view rhetorical theory and history through the lens of disability studies. Traditionally, the body has been seen as, at best, a rhetorical distraction; at worst, those whose bodies do not conform to a narrow range of norms are disqualified from speaking. Yet, Dolmage argues that communication has always been obsessed with the meaning of the body and that bodily difference is always highly rhetorical. Following from this rewriting of rhetorical history, he outlines the development of a new theory, affirming the ideas that all communication is embodied, that the body plays a central role in all expression, and that greater attention to a range of bodies is therefore essential to a better understanding of rhetorical histories, theories, and possibilities.--Publisher description.

Der Themenschwerpunkt greift Forschungsperspektiven auf Behinderung und chronische Krankheit auf, wie sie seit etwa drei Jahrzehnten in den Disability Studies verfolgt werden. Für die Disability Studies ist die Unterscheidung von individueller Beeinträchtigung (impairment) und gesellschaftlich ausgrenzender Behinderung (disability) zentral. Behinderung wird nicht durch die Beeinträchtigung, sondern als durch die jeweiligen gesellschaftlichen Umstände verursacht verstanden. Aus diesem Forschungsverständnis heraus legen die Disability Studies besonderen Wert darauf, dass behinderte Menschen selbst forschen oder als Lai/innen partizipativ an Forschung beteiligt werden. In dem Themenschwerpunkt sind sieben Beiträge versammelt, um theoretische und methodo(olog)ische Auseinandersetzungen sowie empirische Beiträge aus Psychologie und angrenzenden Disziplinen und Arbeitsfeldern vorzustellen und so jüngere Entwicklungen und die gegenwärtige Lage der Disablity Studies im deutschsprachigen Raum zu kartieren.
