eBook
Disability and Mobile Citizenship in Postsocialist Ukraine
2011,2010
Overview
Sarah D. Phillips examines the struggles of disabled persons in Ukraine
and the other former Soviet states to secure their rights during the tumultuous
political, economic, and social reforms of the last two decades. Through participant
observation and interviews with disabled Ukrainians across the social spectrum --
rights activists, politicians, students, workers, entrepreneurs, athletes, and
others -- Phillips documents the creative strategies used by people on the margins
of postsocialist societies to assert claims to mobile citizenship. She
draws on this rich ethnographic material to argue that public storytelling is a
powerful means to expand notions of relatedness, kinship, and social responsibility,
and which help shape a more tolerant and inclusive society.
