A Marxist approach to greater inclusivity for the disabled.
The Marxist response to the role of the disabled as an integral part of a progressive society traditionally has not garnered significant academic study. This thesis responds to the opportunities that Marxism can provide (but may not necessarily yet have achieved) in an inclusive society and the means by which this may be effected, particularly with regard to current provisions in the communist states of Cuba and Vietnam. Rather than being treated as objects of sympathy or charity, this paper explores the tangible ways that disabled citizens may make equal contributions to a Marxist regime, and reviews the attack on disability benefits by the Coalition in Britain from a Marxist perspective. Finally, it recommends mutual learning objectives for each of the three countries stated.
