Description

Social contract theories generally predicate the authority of rules that govern society on the idea that these rules are the product of a contractual agreement struck between members of society. These theories embody values, such as equality, reciprocity and rationality, that are highly prized within our culture. Yet a closer inspection reveals that these features exclude other important values, relations and even persons from the realm of contractual morality and justice, especially people with severe intellectual disabilities. Jonas-Sébastien Beaudry explores the moral status of intellectually disabled people in social contract thought and argues that this tradition needs to be revisited to include the most vulnerable. Addressing this problem will have concrete repercussions in law and policy, because many issues that people with disabilities face are connected to deeply rooted assumptions about their status as full citizens or full members of our moral, political and legal communities. Book Description Beaudry shows how the social contract fails to take account of the moral status of people with severe intellectual disabilities. About the Author Jonas-Sébastien Beaudry is an assistant professor of law at McGill University and a member of the Bar of Quebec. He has published several articles on human rights, applied ethics, and disability studies, as well as a book on freedom of expression in Latin America.
