Abstract

Whilst acknowledging that there is a possible clash between posthumanism and disability – especially regarding the connections between eradication of disabilities and transhumanist assertions –, Murray argues that critical strands of both disabilities studies and posthumanism studies present a large common area, which involves “a critique of humanist norms; a recognition of complex embodiment; and a commitment to intersectionality and inclusive practice among them” (p. 20).
