This study highlights the challenges inherent in attempting to explore and characterize special education models of practice in developing nations. Many such nations, where individuals with disabilities have traditionally been excluded from mainstream education, are increasingly joining in the global movement promoting the rights of all individuals to full participation in mainstream schools and other social institutions. Despite the proliferation of the rhetoric of inclusive special education practices, special education models in many of those countries have never developed in a way that allows a straightforward comparison relative to universally prevalent conceptions and notions. Survey studies that measure attitudes or perceptions, analyses that use international indicators or indexes to compare countries in terms of applying "modern" practices, or thematic analyses that typify sorts of people, beliefs and behaviors, may not be the best (or most appropriate) research tools for understanding special education practices in developing countries. They are not sufficient because they can often overlook examining the local conditions that interact with and reshape imported educational polices and practices. I drew upon analytical and research design options, geared towards exploring educational practice as a contextualized social phenomenon, to design a qualitative inquiry aimed at providing culture and context-specific description of public special education services in Kuwait. In this dissertation, I report on the methods and findings of this inquiry, hoping that the analytical and theoretical perspective from which the inquiry was conducted can serve as a promising framework for guiding the analysis of special educations models in countries like Kuwait. Results emerged from exploring the special education model implemented in Kuwait were compared to findings from other studies that examined that model to suggest some analytical and theoretical guidelines to enabling deeper more realistic characterization of special education practice in a developing nation. A multidimensional analytic approach implemented within a mode of inquiry that keeps the social of the educational program and its organizing work processes in view, can help scholars move beyond analyses that are based on the "universal buzz words", and start to interrogate what these concepts mean to all stakeholders, and what they entail in practice.

This Open Access book is an anthropological urban study of the Emirate of Dubai, its institutions, and their evolution. It provides a contemporary history of disability in city planning from a non-Western perspective and explores the cultural context for its positioning. Three insights inform the author’s approach. First, disability research, much like other urban or social issues, must be situated in a particular place. Second, access and inclusion forms a key part of both local and global planning issues. Third, a 21st century planning education should take access and inclusion into consideration by applying a disability lens to the empirical, methodological, and theoretical advances of the field. By bridging theory and practice, this book provides new insights on inclusive city planning and comparative urban theory. This book should be read as part of a larger struggle to define and assert access; it’s a story of how equity and justice are central themes in building the cities of the future and of today.

This open access book presents contemporary perspectives on the role of a learning society from the lens of leading practitioners, experts from universities, governments, and industry leaders. The think pieces argue for a learning society as a major driver of change with far-reaching influence on learning to serve the needs of economies and societies. The book is a testimonial to the importance of ‘learning communities.’ It highlights the pivotal role that can be played by non-traditional actors such as city and urban planners, citizens, transport professionals, and technology companies. This collection seeks to contribute to the discourse on strengthening the fabric of a learning society crucial for future economic and social development, particularly in the aftermath of the coronavirus disease.
