Majority Societies and the ‘Other’
Ladd CH2 pages 83-84 Grieser (6:53)
Discusses six domains/types of discourses Dr. Ladd identified that Western majority societies delegate responsibility to rationalize and justify their oppressive actions upon “The Others.” They are political and administrative discourses, academic discourses, specialist discourses, medical discourses, scientific discourses and media discourses. They are all part of the discursive system that Deaf communities have to deal with.
