reviewed Enforcing Normalcy on May 08, 2008 Enforcing Normalcy
This book is really brilliant and wonderful; by focusing on the concept of normalcy a it relates to disability, Davis shows how the hegemonic gaze "enforces" social ideas about beauty and value, enabling racism, sexism and ableism in similar ways. Davis's examination of disability provides a strong critique of "constructions" of the body, using examples from mythology as well as contemporary novels, films and art to flesh out his observations.
