Goldman, Charles D. – Journal of Intergroup Relations, 1985
Reviews Federal legislation since 1968 affecting disabled people and discusses political and bureaucratic inaction that compromised implementation. Suggests that the remainder of the 1980's will be a period when disabled persons must assert their rights, supposedly guaranteed by Federal and State laws, to participate fully in society. (SA)
