*PRESENTATION OF THE CONFERENCE*
The conference is organised in the context of the annual meeting of
_Alter_
<http://www.alter-asso.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1&Itemid=2&lang=en> -
/European Society for Disability Research. /Its goal is to offer a
European and international multidisciplinary view of disability
research, across its whole spectrum, addressing sociohistorical and
political dimensions as well as the subjective experiences of the actors
concerned (disabled persons themselves and those close to them,
professionals of the field and other social and political
actors).Considering disability as a category of analysis is also likely
to shed light on the modes of organisation of contemporary societies.
The language of the conference is English (with live captioningduring
joint sessions and one parallel session). The venue of the Fifth Annual
Conference of Alter is _Stockholm University_
<http://www.su.se/english>, located close to Stockholm City centre.
