Opening up a new perspective on how we understand the experiences of disabled people in physical education, this book will prompt every researcher, student and practitioner to rethink their work in adapted physical education or in disability sport for children and young people.This book is the first to explore the concepts of inclusion and exclusion as inter- and intra-subjective experiences in the context of physical education for disabled people, a paradigm shift in the study of disability and physical education. Presenting a conceptual foundation centred on meanings of disability and historical understanding of inclusion and exclusion, it introduces the reader to what inter- and intra- subjective experiences are, and scrutinises practices commonly used by practitioners today. Aligning with anti-ableism ideologies, and the emerging ‘nothing about us, without us’ movement, the book opens up new ways of thinking about ableism, inclusion and exclusion in physical education, and discusses how to identify and understand ‘inclusion porn’ in physical education.This is essential reading for any trainee or in-service teacher, coach, practitioner, researcher or advanced student with an interest in disability and physical education.
