| | WikiProject Discrimination This box: view • talk • edit | | Ableism is a neologism of American coinage, since about 1981. It is used to describe inherent discrimination against people with disabilities in favor of people who are not disabled. An ableist society is said to be one that treats non-disabled individuals as the standard of ‘normal living’, which results in public and private places and services, education, and social work that are built to serve 'standard' people, thereby inherently excluding those with various disabilities. A neologism (Greek νεολογιÏμÏÏ [neologismos], from νÎÎ¿Ï [neos] new + λÏÎ³Î¿Ï [logos] word, speech, discourse + suffix -ιÏμÏÏ [-ismos] -ism) is a word, term, or phrase which has been recently created (coined) â often to apply to new concepts, to synthesize pre-existing concepts, or to make older terminology sound more contemporary. ...

The presumption that everyone is non-disabled is said to be effectively discriminatory in itself, creating built environments which are inaccessible to disabled people. Advocates of the term argue that ableism is analogous to racism and sexism in that it is a system by which mainstream society denigrates, devalues, and thus oppresses those with disabilities, while privileging those without disabilities. Because racism carries connotations of race-based bigotry, prejudice, violence, oppression, stereotyping or discrimination, the term has varying and often hotly contested definitions. ...

In extreme cases, morality, worth and intelligence may even be equated to being ablebodied or ableminded, while disability is conflated with immorality, stupidity, and worthlessness and disabled lives may be devalued to the point that many in the society believe that one is better off dead than living with disability. The eugenics movement of the 19th and 20th centuries, which took its most extreme form in Nazi Germany with Aktion T4, was a product of this belief and many believe that the ‘right to die’ movement (also called the ‘better dead than disabled’ movement) is also an outgrowth of the ableist belief that living with disability is inherently undignified and unworthy. Logic In logic, conflation is the error of treating two distinct concepts as if they were one. ...
In the U.S., Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) enacted into law certain civil penalties for failing to make a public places comply with access codes known as the ADA Access Guidelines (ADAAG); this law also helped expand the use of certain adaptive devices, such as TTY’s (phone systems for the deaf/speech impaired), some computer-related hardware and software, and ramps or lifts on public transportation buses and private automobiles. In the UK, meanwhile, the 1995 Disability Discrimination Act and Disability Discrimination Act 2005 attempts the same. However, these laws often concentrate mainly on the civil aspect of disability discrimination and, by their very nature as law-based papers, they often neglect the cultural dimensions that are integral to the social model of disability. The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 is the short title of United States Public Law 101-336, signed into law on July 26, 1990 by George H. W. Bush. ...

Inclusion, comparatively, means that all products, services, and societal opportunities and resources are fully accessible, welcoming, functional and usable for as many different types of abilities as reasonably possible. An ableist society tends towards isolation, pity, paternalism and low self-esteem among people with disabilities, whereas an inclusive society tends toward sociability and interdependency between the able-bodied and disabled. See Inclusion (disability rights) for more on this concept.
