Inimkond seminar series will end the school year with an exceptional week, celebrating 10 years of anthropology in Tallinn University. Please join us for an intriguing and timely discussion.

On Thursday, 18 May at 18:15 Professor Don Kulick (Uppsala University) gives a presentation on "Sex, Disability and the Ethics of Engagement".

Abstract:

My talk will present findings from Loneliness and its Opposite a recent comparative study of sexuality and disability in Sweden and Denmark (Kulick and Rydstr枚m 2015). I will discuss how the sexual lives of adults with significant disabilities are facilitated in Denmark, and how they are impeded in Sweden. I will argue that access to sexuality for disabled people is not a right; it is an issue of fundamental social justice.

All are welcome!
