Abstract

INTRODUCTION This paper sets out to illustrate some of the practical implications of carrying out research which is framed by the social model of disability. In particular, the paper will highlight how research can be used to investigate some of the key issues implied by the social model and to contrast this with research based on the individual or medical model of disability. Most of the discussion will draw on the work we are developing (in association with Colin Barnes at the Disability Research Unit, University of Leeds) as part of a major new ESRC funded project on Measuring Disablement in Society. This project sets out to investigate the various forms of disabled peoples' exclusion from key areas of social and economic activity and, most importantly, to demonstrate how the extent of their exclusion can actually be measured.
