1. 1. Autistic Community And The Neurodiversity Movement

   

   A careful, research-informed exploration of how autistic people have organized politically and culturally to challenge medicalized views of autism, centering autistic voices, lived experience, and the concept of neurodiversity as a civil-rights framework. It traces the movement’s history, internal debates and diversity of perspectives, and tensions between advocacy, clinical research, and service needs, while addressing issues of identity, stigma, intersectionality, and ethical practices in scholarship and policy. The work argues for shifting from deficit-based approaches to social and rights-based responses that respect autistic autonomy and variation.
