Chapters for Discursive Psychology and Disability

The volume is organized to first present theoretical discussions and empirical illustrations (Chapters 2–7) which demonstrate the application of DP through detailed, micro-analyses of talk and text, addressing issues such as the rhetoric of "burden" in mental health assessments and the negotiation of chronic pain-related disability. A poststructural approach is highlighted in contexts like U.S. schools, proposing a critique of the ability/disability binary and the deficit models often reinforced by special education. Finally, the book fosters interdisciplinary engagement by including responses from scholars in disability studies and special education (Chapters 8–10), inviting critical dialogue and development at the intersection of DP and disability studies.
