The Handbook of Critical Special Education proposes a transformative framework that reimagines special education as dialogic, relational, decolonial, and justice oriented. Critical special education calls for methodological pluralism, epistemic humility, and the integration of social and embodied understandings of disability to dismantle oppressive structures and rebuild education as a site of collective liberation and equity. Across the volume, chapter authors situate critical pedagogy as a critique of traditional special education, problematizing race and power in educational research and practice.
