This book explores this subject through empirical investigation based on case studies conducted in 4 countries- Sweden, England, Australia and the Netherlands- and develops the abstract notion of 'sexual citizenship' to make it practically relevant to disabled people, professionals in disability services and policy makers. Through a cross-national approach, it demonstrates the variability of how sexual rights are understood and their culturally-specific nature. It also shows how the personal is indeed political: states' different policy approaches change the outcomes for disabled people in terms of support to explore and express their sexualities. By proposing a model of sexual facilitation that can be used in policy development, to better cater to disabled service users' needs as well as furthering the theoretical understanding of sexual rights and sexual citizenship, this book will be of interest to professionals in disability services and policy makers as well as academics and students working in the following subject areas: Disability Studies, Sociology, Social Policy, Sexuality Studies/Sexology, Social Work, Nursing, Occupational Therapy and Public Health"-- Provided by publisher.Authorized Access PointBahner, Julia Sexual citizenship and disability
