“…(2017, 196) 13 For Guenther, "[t]he main difference between classical and critical phenomenology turns on a methodological and ethical commitment to attend to the ways that power and history shape lived experience" (2021,6). In addition to contextualizing structures of experience to examine how power functions within our lives in rela-11 See Abrams 2014; Aho and Aho 2008;Carel 2016;Carel 2022;Fisher 2014;Hall 2021;Hughes and Patterson 1997;Lajoie 2019;Lajoie and Douglas 2020;Reynolds 2018;Salamon 2012;Scully 2008;Toombs 1988;Toombs 1992;Valentine 2020;Weiss 2015;Wendell 1996;Wieseler 2012;Wieseler 2018;Wieseler 2019;Wieseler 2022. 12 Guenther also takes this position, claiming that Beauvoir, Fanon, and Sartre articulate "critical phenomenologies of patriarchy, racism, colonialism, and capitalism" (2021, 12).…”

In this paper, I explore the claim that phenomenological accounts grounded in the lived experiences of those most tangibly impacted by social norms related to ability can provide crucial correctives and supplements to the existing philosophical literature on disability. After situating discussions of the body within disability theory and debates over the impairment/disability distinction in philosophy of disability more specifically, I argue that extant models are inadequate for theorizing subjective experiences of living as a disabled person. I then develop an account of the relationship between impairment/disability by drawing upon critical phenomenological approaches to embodiment. In conclusion, I turn to the methodological and metaphilosophical issue of how to conduct ethical inquiry concerning disability. I examine some of the ways that ableist assumptions can inform curiosity, provide examples of disabled people’s accounts of experiencing derivatizing curiosity, and offer suggestions for practices of curiosity that not only avoid epistemic harms, but are actively anti-ableist.

“…However, the pandemic and its political fallout have, of course, been lived realities for everyone, including scholars of phenomenology. The editors of Puncta's 2020 Special Issue-"Critically Sick: New Phenomenologies of Illness, Madness, and Disability"-highlighted how the pandemic was exacerbating deepseated inequalities and affecting marginalized people with profound material consequences (Lajoie & Douglas 2020). People across the globe have endured much and more since then, and the cost and grief of such endurance should not be underestimated; to borrow an expression from Alia Al-Saji (2020), "the weight of its own duration makes a difference" (99).…”
