Abstract

This special issue explores the intersections, boundaries, and collaborative opportunities between the disciplines of medical sociology and disability studies. Both disciplines co-exist, yet, outside of important exceptions (Barnes & Mercer, 1996; Scambler & Scambler, 2010; Thomas, 2004a; Thomas, 2007; Thomas, 2010), and especially in the UK, there is a long legacy of disconnection and territory-protection with little recognition of, and attempt to find, points of convergence and divergence.
