HSCI 2101 Walden University Controversial Issue Discussion
Question Description
I’m working on a psychology discussion question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.
Make a case FOR controversial issue.
The question you are asked to discuss, and which is raised in Solomon’s writings, is: ‘Can an ‘illness’ be an empowering identity and a cultural good, one that shouldn’t be ‘healed’ because this would be disrespectful and destructive of someone else’s ‘way of being’?’
You are required to collect arguments in defense of the view that an ‘illness’ can be a positive identity, a way of being not in need of ‘repair’. To make your case make references to the examples discussed in Andrew Solomon’s writings (Deaf culture, autism, depression, and, in earlier times, homosexuality).
