由于(去)制度化、住房和公民权利之间的历史联系,“家”的含义对残疾人来说很复杂。但是,目前尚不清楚这段历史是否以及如何影响国内空间的可访问计算(AC)研究。我们对101篇交流论文进行批判性话语分析,以探讨(去)制度化对国内交流研究的影响。我们发现(去)制度化激发了残疾人“独立”的目标。然而,住房的话语反映了与“独立性”紧张的制度逻辑——使目标的设定、住房的理解和设计的接近变得复杂。我们概述了三种住房的话语在AC和识别相似之处,那些用来证明制度化在美国。我们反思了它们对AC研究的影响。我们提供了来自独立生活运动的原则,作为挑战住房制度概念的框架,为更全面和反残疾的国内交流研究开辟了新的途径。
The meaning of “homes” is complicated for disabled people because of the historical link between (de)institutionalization, housing, and civil rights. But, it is unclear whether and how this history impacts Accessible Computing (AC) research in domestic spaces. We performed Critical Discourse Analysis on 101 AC articles to explore how (de)institutionalization affects domestic AC research. We found (de)institutionalization motivates goals of “independence” for disabled people. Yet, discourses of housing reflected institutional logics which are in tension with “independence”—complicating how goals were set, housing was understood, and design was approached. We outline three discourses of housing in AC and identify parallels to those used to justify institutionalization in the USA. We reflect upon their consequences for AC research. We offer principles derived from the Independent Living Movement as frameworks for challenging institutional conceptions of housing, to open new avenues for more holistic and anti-ableist domestic AC research.
