In this episode, Doron Dorfman, Associate Professor of Law at Syracuse University College of Law, discusses his article "[Un]Usual Suspects: Deservingness, Scarcity, and Disability Rights," which will be published in the UC Irvine Law Review. Dorfman begins by explaining his work on disability studies, health law, and law & psychology. He briefly explains the basis for modern disability law and how the ADA protects the rights of disabled people. He describes the empirical study, utilizing survey experiments as well as qualitative interviews, he conducted in relation to how Disneyland guests and parking lot users experience and perceive accommodations provided to disabled people. And he reflects on how the results of his study should inform our approach to disability policy. Dorfman is on Twitter at @DorfmanDoron.
