Winner of the DHA 2014 Outstanding Publication Award. Since the end of the 20th century, �disability� has become a new and effective research instrument. One of the most important fields that currently make use of �disability� as an analytical tool is history. In this collection of historical essays the editors have assembled innovative methodological approaches for doing disability history as well as new and inspiring case-studies. The book is structured into four main parts: Challenging methodologies, power and identity, travelling knowledge and emerging geographies. In close reference to on-going theoretical discussions it not only contributes heavily to the understanding of how and why �disability� became a problem for human societies. At the heart of the reader one also finds the preoccupation of promoting the potentiality of �disability� for future historical research.
