INT 161 - Introduction to Disability Studies (1)

This course examines the history and development of the concept of ”disability” and will introduce students to some of the contemporary academic conversations around ”disability” and ”disability studies.” This course uses “disability,” broadly defined, as a lens through which to view broad themes in American history since the Civil War: e.g. diversity and inclusion; industrialization; the growth of (and resistance to) state power; and so on.
