Stratification Economics and Disability Justice

Written with Keisha Bentley-Edwards

Stratification Economics and Disability Justice follows the lead of Black disabled activists pursuing intersectional advancement of economic justice. Presenting evidence of disability-based inequality from economics, sociology, disability studies, and beyond, Hollowell and Bentley-Edwards make a case for the inclusion of ableism alongside racism and misogyny in stratification economics’ analysis of intergroup disparity.

Stratification Economics and Disability Justice highlights the limitations of traditional economic analyses and elevates quantitative and qualitative intersectional research methods across four key areas in stratification economics: employment, health, wealth, and education.
