Providing an exposition of recent legislation, this book discusses the Disability Discrimination Act 1995 and all related statutory instruments and codes of practice. It also offers expert guidance on the practical issues which arise when advising disabled clients. Each key area is considered, including discrimination in relation to employment, goods and services, premises and transport. Additionally, the far-reaching implications of the legislation in these areas are discussed from the point of view of both the person subject to discrimination and that of the public bodies and commercial or other concerns that need to comply with, or resist claims under, the Act.

The Disability Discrimination Act 1995 imposed new duties on employers, trade organizations, service providers, property owners, educational bodies and public transport providers. It created new individual rights for disabled persons and opened up possibilities for new forms of litigation. Disability Discrimination: Law and Practice is the definitive guide to how this important legislation operates in practice in the UK. This new edition has been updated to take account of the many important developments in this area, including: new case law on the meaning of disability, and the employment and trade organization provisions in the Act; the prospective implementation of the remaining aspects of Part III of the Disability Discrimination Act 1995 which will place further duties on service providers from October 2004; the Special Educational Needs and Disability Act 2001 and its effects on schools, colleges and universities in relation to disabled pupils and students; and the likely reforms to the Disability Discrimination Act 1995 and the Disability Rights Commission Act 1999 following the Government's response to the Disability Rights Task Force report, its proposals for implementing the EC Employment Directive and the Disability Rights Commission first statutory review of the legislation. The book is an invaluable reference dealing with the developing body of law regulating disability discrimination for all those advising businesses, service providers and other organizations, and those representing disabled people in court or tribunal proceedings. The full text of the Disability Discrimination Act 1995 and the Disability Rights Commission Act 1999 is included.

This comprehensive volume assesses the relationship between legal rights and disability and the effect of law, legal process and third party professional intervention on the lives of people with disabilities. Stressing the crucial role played by disabled people themselves in fulfilling the promise of the worldwide rights movement, the chapters examine this relationship across a variety of themes, stressing the legal elements of each issue, and the extent to which law can assist in strengthening individual rights in that area. The contributors, who are all either academics or other professional experts in their field, write in a jargon free accessible style. The volume will be of interest to lawyers, human rights activists, health care professionals and to disabled people generally. The main areas covered in the volume are: * new perspectives on working in partnership with disabled people; * the changing attitudes to the rights of people with disabilities across the globe; * improvements to the rights of disabled people through legal process, using national and international law; * an examination of the rights and entitlement of disabled people to community care, housing, employment, education, and special services for children; * disabled people and mental health law; * messages from disability research for law, practice and reform implications for research.

The first significant book on the history and impact of the ADA—the “eyes on the prize” moment for disability rights The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is the widest-ranging and most comprehensive piece of civil rights legislation ever passed in the United States, and it has become the model for disability-based laws around the world. Yet the surprising story behind how the bill came to be is little known. In this riveting account, acclaimed disability scholar Lennard J. Davis delivers the first behind-the-scenes and on-the-ground narrative of how a band of leftist Berkeley hippies managed to make an alliance with upper-crust, conservative Republicans to bring about a truly bipartisan bill. Based on extensive interviews with all the major players involved including legislators and activists, Davis recreates the dramatic tension of a story that is anything but a dry account of bills and speeches. Rather, it’s filled with one indefatigable character after another, culminating in explosive moments when the hidden army of the disability community stages scenes like the iconic “Capitol Crawl” or an event some describe as “deaf Selma,” when students stormed Gallaudet University demanding a “Deaf President Now!” From inside the offices of newly formed disability groups to secret breakfast meetings surreptitiously held outside the White House grounds, here we meet countless unsung characters, including political heavyweights and disability advocates on the front lines. “You want to fight?” an angered Ted Kennedy would shout in an upstairs room at the Capitol while negotiating the final details of the ADA. Congressman Tony Coelho, whose parents once thought him to be possessed by the devil because of his epilepsy, later became the bill’s primary sponsor. There’s Justin Dart, adorned in disability power buttons and his signature cowboy hat, who took to the road canvassing fifty states, and people like Patrisha Wright, also known as “The General,” Arlene Myerson or “the brains,” “architect” Bob Funk, and visionary Mary Lou Breslin, who left the hippie highlands of the West to pursue equal rights in the marble halls of DC. Published for the twenty-fifth anniversary of the ADA, Enabling Acts promises to ignite readers in a discussion of disability rights by documenting this “eyes on the prize” moment for tens of millions of American citizens.

While equality laws operate to enable access to information, these laws have limited power over the overriding impact of market forces and copyright laws that focus on restricting access to information. Technology now creates opportunities for everyone in the world, regardless of their abilities or disabilities, to be able to access the written word – yet the print disabled are denied reading equality, and have their access to information limited by laws protecting the mainstream use and consumption of information. The Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities and the World Intellectual Property Organization's Marrakesh Treaty have swept in a new legal paradigm. This book contributes to disability rights scholarship, and builds on ideas of digital equality and rights to access in its analysis of domestic disability anti-discrimination, civil rights, human rights, constitutional rights, copyright and other equality measures that promote and hinder reading equality.
