Write a critical essay on the different theoretical models applied to
people with disabilities and relate how the deaf community can be
regarded as an example of a marginalized identity.


Title: Theoretical Models of Disability and the Marginalization of the Deaf
Community



Introduction

The discourse surrounding disability is complex and multifaceted, encompassing various
theoretical frameworks that influence societal perceptions and the treatment of individuals with
disabilities. Among these, the social model of disability and the medical model are predominant,
each shaping the lived experiences of disabled individuals in unique ways. This essay explores
these theoretical models, their implications for people with disabilities, and how the deaf
community exemplifies a marginalized identity within this framework.



Theoretical Models of Disability

1. The Medical Model of Disability

The medical model views disability primarily as a defect or impairment that resides within an
individual. This framework emphasizes diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation as means to 'fix'
or mitigate the effects of disability. Historically, this model has dominated the healthcare system,
leading to a focus on medical interventions at the expense of recognizing social and
environmental factors that contribute to disability.
