About this ebook
Inclusive Sport Platforms explores the complex world of adaptive sports, examining their role in promoting athletic equality and challenging societal perceptions of disability. The book argues that while adaptive sports have made strides, systemic barriers like inadequate funding and societal biases persist. It's intriguing to learn how the Paralympics and adaptive sports programs have actively reshaped social models of disability, moving away from purely medical perspectives.
The book takes a comprehensive approach, beginning with the historical development of adaptive sports and progressing to the social and psychological impacts on athletes. It then analyzes organizational structures and policies.
By drawing from disability studies and the sociology of sport, the book offers a holistic understanding. It uniquely combines historical analysis, empirical research, and policy recommendations, offering valuable insights for policymakers, sports administrators, and advocates interested in creating truly inclusive sports environments.
