Situating psychiatric diagnosis and hospitalization within the broader context of decades of social and historical research, as well as emergent fields such as feminist philosophy of disability, critical diversity studies (CDS), and mad studies, I argue that a socially mediated process which is legitimated with appeals to “health” and “safety” should not be maintained during a pandemic of a readily communicable virus that is especially dangerous for individuals clustered in inpatient settings. A CDS approach allows the clear identification of “severe mental illness” as a marked category of social difference which leads to multiple forms of social oppression. In this paper, I show how involuntary psychiatric hospitalization is a social process through which marked individuals are dehumanized and confined. Furthermore, I consider why the maintenance of the status quo, even under pandemic conditions, demonstrates that involuntary treatment is primarily a political, rather than a medical, process. Finally, I outline why the politics of involuntary treatment should concern longstanding disciplines such as public health and bioethics, as well as emergent disciplines like CDS.","PeriodicalId":224459,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Critical Diversity Studies","volume":"57 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115465819","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

His current research focuses on developing an affective theory of experience, identity, and personhood through bridging American Pragmatism, Japanese Aesthetics, and Phenomenology. Flowers’s work also explores how identities are lived affectively through technology and society, with a specific emphasis on race, gender, and disability. ABSTRACT This paper will resituate the presumed accessibility gains that have emerged in the wake of COVID-19 not as gains for disabled people, but rather as the products of a world that is prepared for some people and some bodies and not for other people and other bodies. I will show that a more productive approach to understanding the sudden possibility of impossible accommodations would be accomplished by drawing upon Sara Ahmed’s treatment of the inheritance of a world, inheritance that places some objects within one’s reach while denying one access to other objects. On this view, ableism, as an organizing force in the world, serves to determine what bodies can and cannot do by virtue of the way that it “prepares” the world for some bodies and not for other bodies. As I will argue, the previous impossibility of the current widespread accommodations in academia and society broadly was due to the inheritance of an ableist world. designed to be inherited by some people and their bodies and not by other people and their bodies. the and points of encounter between but and and space navigate our tends to offer fits to majority bodies and create misfits with forms of embodiment, such as people with","PeriodicalId":224459,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Critical Diversity Studies","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130300704","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A diversity-aware system is a computer system whose designers a) account for differences between the system’s stakeholders, and/or b) draw on a normative notion of diversity like “inclusion” or “fairness” in its design. Diversity concepts embedded in technology carry contested values and have effects on the technology’s stakeholders. Therefore, it is vital to conduct a critical review of designs leveraging diversity concepts. In an exploration of three cases (diversity-aware datasets, machine learning fairness, and diversity-aware social media), the article sheds light on the shortcomings of mainstream or “individual-level” diversity-aware technology. Such technology leverages individual-level notions of diversity (demographics, personality, culture) to cater to users, thereby obscuring social inequalities among them. Inspired by Black feminism and critical race theory, the article offers a social-justice-oriented conceptualisation of diversity-aware technology. It develops a definition and criteria for critical or “structural-level” diversity-aware technology, where diversity concepts are linked to the visibility and redistribution of power. The article offers inspiration for researchers of technology and designers who work with diversity concepts.","PeriodicalId":224459,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Critical Diversity Studies","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115934157","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
