  • Classification of Disabled Athletes: (Dis)Empowering the Paralympic
    The Tail is Wagging the Dog: Body Culture, Classification and the Paralympic Movement For consideration for the special issue of Ethnography on physical culture Submitted by Dr. P. David Howe Academic Associate Peter Harrison Centre for Disability Sport Lecturer in the Sociology of Sport School of Sport and Exercise Sciences Loughborough University Loughborough UK LE11 3TU http://www.lboro.ac.uk/departments/sses/contact/staff/pdh.html ph. +44 (0)1509 226389 fax. +44 (0)1509 226301 [email protected] 1 Abstract. The rules and regulations regarding the classification process through which athletes must be vetted to determine eligibility for Paralympic competition have been transformed drastically over the last two decades. A complex classification system initially developed by the International Organizations of Sport for the Disabled (IOSD) has been the distinctive feature of the Paralympic movement over this period. Key consideration must be given to the equitable nature of any classification system imposed by the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) in order to comply with the ideology of Paralympism. Paralympism is manifest in the dictum of the Paralympic movement ‘empower, inspire and achieve’. Using ethnographic data obtained while a Paralympic athlete this paper explores recent debates within the sport of athletics surrounding classification. This is achieved by highlighting the process of classification and how as a result of this process some bodies are celebrated and others are not within a sporting culture established as a ghetto for imperfection. KEY WORDS: Paralympism, ethics, classification, athletics, habitus This paper highlights the importance of body culture in the transforming of the Paralympic movement by examining data collected ethnographically by an anthropologist who was both athlete and administrator within elite sporting practice for the disabled1.

I will cherish all the fascinating lives I have been fortunate enough to have been a small part of. A huge thanks also to my committee members: Dr. Pierre Trudel, Dr. Diane Culver, and Dr. Natalie Durand-Bush. Your critical eyes and collaborative spirit made this a positive experience for me. Special thanks goes to Dr. Penny Werthner for being a professional and academic mentor to me, on this project and beyond.

Our main aim is to develop and disseminate classroom tested examples of effective group strategies that promote talk across all phases and subjects. We hope they will inspire you to develop and use similar strategies in other topics and curriculum areas. We want to encourage you to change them and adapt them to your classroom and students. We run teacher workshops, swapshops and conferences throughout the European Union. The project posts online many activities in all subject areas. An online newsletter is also updated regularly. *These activities are influenced by current thinking about the role of language in learning. They are designed to help children learn through talk and active learning in small groups. They work best in non selective classes where children in need of language or learning support are integrated.
