Toward a Decolonial Disability Interrogation of the Marxian Conception of Abilities and Needs’ The present talk has a conversational ethos as it is a work in progress which will be part of my upcoming volume titled Decolonial Disability and Social Epistemologies. Its purpose is to interrogate the meaning of Marx’s famous aphorism: to everyone according to their abilities and to everyone according to their needs (my paraphrasing here intends to be gender neutral). My interrogation invokes the decolonial Marxian critique developed by Peruvian thinker Aníbal Quijano, a former Marxian scholar who has been articulated and amplified, among other decolonial thinkers, by Brazilian anthropologist Rita Segato. In line with the conversational nature of this exercise, I am sharing an essay by Russian educational philosopher Anna Stetsenko which has impacted my initial oppositional thinking in this matter. Due to her expansive interpretation of Marx, I am now moving toward collective generativity explorations, a radical/strategic process that I am sure you will highly enrich through your comments and insights. Alexis Padilla is Visiting Professor at the University of Missouri Saint Louis, and the author of Disability, Intersectional Agency and Latinx Identity: Theorising LatDisCrit Counterstories (published by Routeledge in 2021). He has worked extensively on disability equality and justice in education, decolonial projects, and religion. ________________End of message________________ This Disability-Research Discussion list is managed by the Centre for Disability Studies at the University of Leeds (www.leeds.ac.uk/disability-studies <http://www.leeds.ac.uk/disability-studies> ).
