| Summary: | "This Book introduces the theme, key concepts and theories, and methods of the book. It starts with introducing the trend for Chinese disabled people to become visible agents over the past decade, which happens in the context of China's rapid reforms and digitalisation. It then presents an overview of the key concepts and theories that framed the analyses in the subsequent chapters. From the classic conceptualisation of citizenship developed by T.H. Marshall to later theoretical shifts and studies of disability citizenship and digital citizenship, the chapter critically reviews the existing theorisations of citizenship and disability and points out the key dimensions and gaps. It raises the research question of examining the status and practices of Chinese disabled people in the digital era. The chapter then introduces the approaches, analytical framework, and methods of the research and the structure of the book"-- Provided by publisher. |
