The American Dream vs. the European Dream

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the contrasting philosophies of individualism in the American Dream and communalism in the European Dream, this thesis examines disability rights legislation in the U.S. and the EU. It details the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 and the European Disability Strategy 2010-2020, highlighting their institutional frameworks and objectives. A comparative analysis reveals how these legislative approaches reflect broader societal values, particularly the evolution of British disability rights in the 1990s and its impact on the European disability rights movement.
