Feminist and gender studies as a field has advanced while also connecting to other categories of analysis, such as generation, class, race/ethnic groups, sexual orientation, region, and religion. Nonetheless, one issue still remains isolated from the effort of intersecting those categories, namely disability. We thus have sought to evaluate some of the possibilities to the analysis of social and cultural phenomena in which the dialog between feminist and gender studies and the field of disability studies is appropriate. It is expected that greater visibility will be provided to the debate on these issues by evaluating its analytical and political potential in view of its contribution to public policies.
