What forces and factors create this dynamic? How can disability be everywhere and nowhere, present and absent, and obvious and overlooked in both the historical record and historians' interpretations of the past?  Jenifer L. Barclay and Stefanie Hunt-Kennedy edit a collection of interdisciplinary essays that consider how and why physical, sensory, intellectual, and psychological disabilities are underrepresented, erased, or distorted in the historical record. The contributors draw on the methodology and practice of cripping to uncover disability in contested archives and explore ways to build inclusive archives accountable to, and centered on, disabled people and disability justice. Throughout, they show ableness informing the politics of the archive as a physical space, a discriminatory record, and a collection of silences.  An essential contribution to research methods and disability justice, \u003ci\u003eCripping the Archive\u003c\/i\u003e offers a blueprint for intersectional and interdisciplinary approaches that bridge disability studies, history, and archival studies.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"University of Illinois Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52656099787032,"sku":"9780252088797","price":19.69,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/cripping-the-archive-disability-history-and-power-paperback-softback-9780252088797","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
