| Tiivistelmä: | This paper introduces an outline of a thesis concerning the ways in which the discourse of leisure studies has become "disabled by definition". The subject field of leisure studies has been unable to develop a coherent body of knowledge on disability and leisure through a failure to engage adequately with disability studies, disability politics and disabled people as both leisure participants and leisure theories. The engagement of leisure studies with disability has been paralysed by its exclusive discourses, definitions and models drawn from the able-bodied, mobile and physically active worlds of work, recreation and physical education. The subject field of leisure studies now requires the development of a more inclusive discourse informed by new definitions of leisure and wider engagement with disability research and disabled people. |
