In light of the third-generation concept of ‘inclusive sustainability’, the volume explores the architecture of global disability governance and its degree of harmonisation. The book integrates socio-cultural, economic, political and legal analyses from an international and comparative perspective. The first part of the volume outlines a tripartite systematisation of disability rights for States and non-state persons. In light of essential economic considerations, the second part explores the relationship between disability and specific fundamental rights and regimes, particularly the rights to life, health, education, work and participation. The third part takes an institutional approach and focuses on the way in which the UN and regional organisations regulate disability (rectius, different ability).

Dr Ottavio Quirico is an Associate Professor in the School of Law at the University of New England and the Centre for European Studies of the Australian National University, and a Fernand Braudel Senior Fellow in the Law Department of the European University Institute. He has held positions in universities worldwide and acted as a consultant to the United Nations.
