Johnson, Kelley, Jan Walmsley, and Marie Wolfe, 'A good life in policy', People with intellectual disabilities: Towards a good life? (Bristol , 2010; online edn, Policy Press Scholarship Online, 22 Mar. 2012), https://doi.org/10.1332/policypress/9781847420695.003.0005, accessed 18 Apr. 2024.
Abstract
This chapter identifies the emergence of ideas about a good life in policy. It tries to deconstruct some of the theoretical and conceptual perspectives that have framed the search for a good life. The discussion is particularly concerned with the values that lie behind each of these conceptualisations and their connections to the ideas of what makes a good life. The chapter also looks at the contributions of some key theories to current policy.
