Chapter 1. Introduction: African Scholarship and the Neglect of Disability -- Chapter 2. Africa in Disability Justice, Legal and Political Theory -- Chapter 3. Human Rights and Disability Justice in Africa -- Chapter 4. Towards an African Legal Theory of Disability Justice -- Chapter 5. From African Legal Theory to Practice: A Bill of Responsibilities -- Chapter 6. Conclusion.

How should disability justice be conceptualised, not by orthodox human rights or capabilities approaches, but by a legal philosophy that mirrors an African relational community ideal? This book develops the first comprehensive answer to this question through the contemporary literature on African philosophy, which is relied upon to construct a legal philosophy of disability justice comprising of ethical ideals of community, human relationships and obligations. From these ideals, an African legal philosophy of disability justice is offered as a criterion for critically evaluating existing laws, legal and political institutions, as well as providing an ethical basis for creating new ones to ensure that they are inclusive to people with disabilities. In taking an alternative perspective on the subject, the book outlines and emphasises the need for a new public culture of obligations owed to people with disabilities, highlighting both the prospects and difficulties of achieving the ideal of disability justice that continues to elude the lived experiences of millions of Africans today.
