But they have now become the pigs that walk on two legs, the new academic
elite academie Francaise, protecting the ideas of there former days against
the dangeros incursion of post modernism which declare them to be nothing
but flotsam in the river of time,
All ideas are up for challenge and the challenge is not being made in the
hallowed halls of academe, just as that is not where these present theries
started out.
The fundemental error as I see of it is that most of the linguistic
perseveration in this is anglo phone and anglo centric and that stripping
the superfluity of english homonyms and alternatives the concepts and indeed
connotations behind there replacements are no better than the originals,
Impairment indeed, the very concept has a measurability in it a suggestion
that what is impaired deviates from some platonic nature of perfection, That
is as much as saying handicapped or disabled and to me it is the submersion
and survival of the medical model within what is supposed to be its
critique.
You see the social model as I see it, is not the social model of Oliver et
al which is just newspeak for the old one in so many ways. I think a little
syncretism from other disciplines is needed to understand just where these
academics exist within a larger historical and social media dynamic. How
they are constrained by there time, culture and language into conforming to
a half way model that has become ossified.
