How should we understand disability and what are the responsibilities of a just society toward its disabled members? This course seeks to explore these questions from a philosophical perspective by delving into current debates in political, social, and moral philosophy and bioethics. The course will traverse topics ranging from the social construction of disability, the connection between disability and well-being, the ethics of discrimination on the basis of disability and its distinctive features, feminist perspectives on disability, epistemic injustice in relation to disability experience, and the disability challenge vis-á-vis theories of justice.

Course lecturers: Miklós István Zala (CEPDISC, Aarhus University) & Adi Goldiner (The Hebrew University of Jerusalem)
