The Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities: Reconstructing Disability to Reimagine Education

Winzer, Margaret, Mazurek, Kas·2017·The Wiley Handbook of Diversity in Special Education

Abstract

The text of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) encapsulates both human rights and development. This chapter outlines some key foundational considerations to juxtapose cultural considerations with the social model of disability and inclusive schooling. These are an overview of the CRPD; an analysis of the paradigmatic shift from a medical to a social model of disability; and the connection of the treaty to the policy ambitions of dominant instruments of global education governance, Education for All (EFA) and the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). With these building blocks in place, the chapter interrogates the promises and the limits of the social model both as a means of reducing social exclusion and stimulating the progress of inclusive schooling. The chapter examines progress and point to continuing tensions and mechanisms for resolution.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
