Since 1945, the expansion of rights claims and the multiplication of risk designations have coincided. This project probes that coincidence by considering the case of autism. Today designated as a developmental disability, autism\u2019s key characteristic\u2014aloneness\u2014challenges the sociability that grounds secure personhood and civic belonging. Autism therefore illuminates the boundaries of the human as well as the rights of citizens. This research project explores the following themes: autism and the campaign to measure, predict, and control developmental risks; autism as a controversial and increasingly prevalent clinical entity; autism as the basis for advocacy movements; autism and the right to education and early intervention; neurodiversity and democracy. Autism illustrates how risk itself became a legitimate basis for political mobilization, collective identification, and rights claims.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Professor Ellen Herman, UO Department of History, recently won a prestigious American Council of Learned Societies (ACLS) Fellowship.
