Sanism and the Law Michael L
Virtual Mentor American Medical Association Journal of Ethics October 2013, Volume 15, Number 10: 878-885. MEDICINE AND SOCIETY Sanism and the Law Michael L. Perlin, JD “Sanism,” an irrational prejudice against people with mental illness, is of the same quality and character as other irrational prejudices such as racism, sexism, homophobia, and ethnic bigotry that cause (and are reflected in) prevailing social attitudes [1, 2]. It infects both our jurisprudence and our lawyering practices. Sanism is largely invisible and largely socially acceptable. It is based predominantly upon stereotype, myth, superstition, and deindividualization and is sustained and perpetuated by our use of alleged “ordinary common sense” (OCS) and heuristic reasoning in irrational responses to events in both everyday life and the legal process [3, 4]. I have written extensively about the roots of the assumptions that are made by the legal system about persons with mental disabilities. These mistaken assumptions include: that people with mental illness are erratic, deviant, sexually uncontrollable, emotionally unstable, superstitious, lazy, and ignorant; that they demonstrate a primitive morality; they are invariably more dangerous than persons without mental illness, and such dangerousness is easily and accurately identified by experts; that for a person in treatment for mental illness to decline to take prescribed antipsychotic medication is an excellent predictor of (1) future dangerousness and (2) need for involuntary institutionalization; that people with mental illness should be segregated in large, distant institutions because their presence threatens the economic and social stability of residential communities; that they give in too easily to their basest instincts and do not exercise appropriate self-restraint [5]. -

An Essay in Universal History
AN ESSAY IN UNIVERSAL HISTORY From an Orthodox Christian Point of View VOLUME VI: THE AGE OF MAMMON (1945 to 1992) PART 2: from 1971 to 1992 Vladimir Moss © Copyright Vladimir Moss, 2018: All Rights Reserved 1 The main mark of modern governments is that we do not know who governs, de facto any more than de jure. We see the politician and not his backer; still less the backer of the backer; or, what is most important of all, the banker of the backer. J.R.R. Tolkien. It is time, it is the twelfth hour, for certain of our ecclesiastical representatives to stop being exclusively slaves of nationalism and politics, no matter what and whose, and become high priests and priests of the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church. Fr. Justin Popovich. The average person might well be no happier today than in 1800. We can choose our spouses, friends and neighbours, but they can choose to leave us. With the individual wielding unprecedented power to decide her own path in life, we find it ever harder to make commitments. We thus live in an increasingly lonely world of unravelling commitments and families. Yuval Noah Harari, (2014). The time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, will heap up for themselves teachers, and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables. II Timothy 4.3-4. People have moved away from ‘religion’ as something anchored in organized worship and systematic beliefs within an institution, to a self-made ‘spirituality’ outside formal structures, which is based on experience, has no doctrine and makes no claim to philosophical coherence. -
Neurodiversity Studies
Neurodiversity Studies Building on work in feminist studies, queer studies, and critical race theory, this vol• ume challenges the universality of propositions about human nature, by questioning the boundaries between predominant neurotypes and ‘others’, including dyslexics, autistics, and ADHDers. This is the first work of its kind to bring cutting-edge research across disciplines to the concept of neurodiversity. It offers in-depth explorations of the themes of cure/ prevention/eugenics; neurodivergent wellbeing; cross-neurotype communication; neu• rodiversity at work; and challenging brain-bound cognition. It analyses the role of neuro-normativity in theorising agency, and a proposal for a new alliance between the Hearing Voices Movement and neurodiversity. In doing so, we contribute to a cultural imperative to redefine what it means to be human. To this end, we propose a new field of enquiry that finds ways to support the inclusion of neurodivergent perspectives in knowledge production, and which questions the theoretical and mythological assump• tions that produce the idea of the neurotypical. Working at the crossroads between sociology, critical psychology, medical humani• ties, critical disability studies, and critical autism studies, and sharing theoretical ground with critical race studies and critical queer studies, the proposed new field – neurodiversity studies – will be of interest to people working in all these areas. Hanna Bertilsdotter Rosqvist is an Associate Professor in Sociology and currently a Senior Lecturer in Social work at Södertörn University. Her recent research is around autism, identity politics, and sexual, gendered, and age normativity. She is the former Chief Editor of Scandinavian Journal of Disability Research. Nick Chown is a book indexer who undertakes autism research in his spare time. -

INTRODUCTION MAGINE the uproar if a published appellate court decision in 1974 re- ferred to an adult person of color as a "boy." Imagine the fallout if the New York Times stated in 1964 that Plessy v. Ferguson was the lead case on the question of "separate but equal" accommodations. Imagine if, ten years after Roe v. Wade, a Congressman had been complimented for his "thoughtful" remarks when he stated that, not only was it still legal to criminalize first-trimester abortions, but that a state could also lawfully bar all women from using contraception. Imagine if left-liberal candidates in one of the most progressive legislative districts in the country ran for office on a platform of excluding racial minorities from living in that district. These acts would quickly, and correctly, be labelled either as racist, sexist or bizarre, and would be decried by well-meaning citizens at virtually all points on the political spectrum. Yet, when we substitute "mentally disabled person" for "person of color" or "racial minority" or "woman," we let such acts pass without notice or comment.' In fact, when a sitting state trial court judge recently endorsed Judge Oliver Wendell Holmes' infamous dic- tum from Buck v. -

Engaging Studies in Ableism and Disability Jurisprudence
Problematizing Vulnerability: Engaging Studies in Ableism and Disability Jurisprudence (Draft) Fiona Kumari Campbell Keynote Legal Intersections Research Centre, Disability at the Margins: Vulnerability, Empowerment and the Criminal Law, University of Wollongong, Wednesday 27 November 2013. Griffith Law School Griffith University Adjunct Professor, Department of Disability Studies, Faculty of Medicine, University of Kelaniya, Sri Lanka [email protected] Not for quotation or citation without the permission of the author. 1 Introduction 1 This paper builds upon over a decade of work around developing the concept of ableism, its nuances and theoretical application in the lifeworld of people with disability. I extend the theoretical scoping developed in my major work Contours of Ableism (2009), especially around matters interconnected to relationality – causality, vulnerability and social exclusion. The grounded context of my discussion is situated within the discipline of law and the ‘vulnerable’/disabled subject of public policy and law. The paper is divided in two parts. Part 1 outlines ableist terrains , scoping disability as relational, a synopsis of studies in ableism, the building blocks of theory about ableism and social exclusion. Part 2 concerns the application of ableism in to notions of vulnerability and consequences for judicial and state action. The paper will introduce studies in ableism with particular attention to adopting ableism as a methodology for ‘problem’ appraisal and strategies for inclusion. It will then interrogate dominant discourses of vulnerability (disabled people as vulnus or wounded, having a stable trait (Fineman, 2008, 2010, 2012; Ingram & Price, 2010; Ingram & Gallagher, 2010; Misztal, 2011) incorporating discussion around the biopolitics of disabled people as a suffering population (Butler, 2009; Kaul, 2013; Lloyd, 2008), that is an immutable, discrete insular minority and hence should be a protected class. -
