Jonathan Harvey

Role Summary

 

My specialist area is disability studies. I am particularly interested in viewing disability and impairment in terms of the way they impact on inclusion. I am interested in social theory and much of my work to date has been concerned with how social theory can be used to make sense of the lives of disabled people. I am experienced in using qualitative research and enjoy exploring epistemological and ontological concerns in research.
