The journal was created at a period when both nationally and internationally disabled people and their organisations were involved in serious struggles over the establishment of empowering conceptions of disability, rights, citizenship and independent living. Through the development of what is called the social model of disability, which is a creation of disabled people, the question of disability began to be understood as a form of social oppression, and it was connected to issues of equity, social justice and human rights, and as well, at this period, disability studies was beginning to emerge as a distinct study in higher education.
