Summary:

"Inaccessible Access ethnographically addresses barriers to inclusion within knowledge-making. It focuses on the social, environmental, communicative, and epistemological barriers that people with disabilities confront and embody throughout the course of their learning, living and in the specific context of their Higher Education Institutions and in research. IT is presented by neurodiverse, disabled, and non-cis cohort of authors, all of whom acknowledge a continuum of (in)access which is available to each contributor contingent on their inherent intersectionalities and alterities. The authors and editors of this book foreground the work that has yet to be don on recognising the value of non-normative ways of approaching, being in and knowing research and higher education, particularly in cases where disability-centered epistemologies are side-lined in confrontation with institutional norms, even within existing discourses concerning equality and alterity"-- [Provided by publisher]
