(1 other version)Cognitive ableism and disability studies: Feminist reflections on the history of mental retardation.Licia Carlson - 2001 - Hypatia 16 (4):124-146.details This paper examines five groups of women that were instrumental in the emergence of the category of "feeblemindedness" in the United States.
