Easton, C. (2011) An examination of the Internet’s development as a disabling environment in the context of the social model of disability and anti-discrimination legislation in the UK and USA, Universal Access in the Information Society November http://www.springerlink.com/content/60542p8143150277/
Easton, C. (2011) The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0: An Analysis of Industry Self-regulation, International Journal of Law and Information Technology 19 (1) pp74-93
Please email me directly if you wish to discuss any related issues.
