My project investigates cultural discourses on disability in post-1989 Poland and examines Polish capitalism—more precisely its representations and discourses on capitalism— through the lenses of disability. It focuses on cultural sites of disability representation and reproduction such as novels, journalistic accounts, and disability life writing. I am interested in Polish postsocialist culture for what is at stake is the question if the democratic and capitalist transformation fulfilled its promise of freedom and equality for all subjects in Poland, including the disabled ones.
