Product Description:

Gould, R. & Parker Harris, S. (2012). Welfare Reform and Disability in Slovakia: exploring neoliberalism, social justice and employment policy. Disability Studies Quarterly, 32( 2) - The article explores how the recently implemented workfare system created because of the Slovak National Action Plan on Social Inclusion (NAPS) affects the open labor market participation of people with disabilities. It draws on Nancy Fraser?s theory of social justice to frame injustices in the policies and practices surrounding the Slovak workfare system for people with disabilities. It examines five key areas outlined in the NAPS that directly impact the participation of people with disabilities in the labor market in Slovakia: stigma, accessibility, training, legislation, and supported employment.
