We are pleased to announce the publication of the winter issue of Disability
Studies Quarterly. This includes a special section, "Neurodiversity, Past
and Present," as well as two featured articles. One of the articles that
deserves special mention is Mark Bookman's study of how Western disability
rights have been interpreted and applied in a Japanese context. Mark was an
SDS Board member and finalized this piece not long before he passed away in
2022. It is now a part of his legacy and has implications that extend to the
study of disability rights in other non-Western contexts.

We hope you will look through the issue's entire table of contents:
