1. 1. Crip Theory

   Cultural Signs of Queerness and Disability

   

   This book develops a theoretical framework that links disability and queer studies to show how cultural norms around ability and sexuality are mutually constructed and policed. Arguing that “compulsory able-bodiedness” operates alongside compulsory heterosexuality, it reads literature, film, and political discourse to reveal how normativity produces and marginalizes nonnormative bodies and desires, and it calls for queer/crip coalitions and alternative forms of citizenship and resistance that challenge neoliberal and rehabilitative ideals.
