Geodisability Knowledge Production and International Norms: A Sri Lankan Case Study

Published By: CLC 2006 on eSS | Published Date: July, 28 , 2006

In this paper I argue that United Nations norm standard setting, as a form of geodisability of knowledge which delimits and denotes the kinds of bodies known as disabled, is a technology for reining in, and thus controlling anomalous/disablized bodies. A discussion of geodisability knowledge production in the form of international standard setting is pursued within the context of a Sri Lankan case study.
