Description: Decarcerating Disability : Deinstitutionalization and Prison Abolition, Paperback by Ben-moshe, Liat, ISBN 1517904439, ISBN-13 9781517904432, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US The recent surge in media, activist, and scholarly critique of mass incarceration rarely considers disability or madness, says Ben-Moshe, even though disability is central to mass incarceration and decarcertation in the US. She discusses both the disabling nature of incarceration in prisons and the pervasiveness of incarcerating disabled people-whether in so-called therapeutic facilities like psychiatric hospitals or punitive ones like jails. Among her topics are the perfect storm: origin stories of deinstitutionalization, abolition as knowledge and ways of unknowing, why prisons are not "the new asylums," and political and affective economies of closing carceral enclosures.
