| dc.description.abstract | The disabled have consistently numbered among the most impoverished, underemployed, and unemployed demographics worldwide, particularly in countries using quota systems and anti discrimination legislation alone. In the 1990s and 2000s, several law review articles focused on the prospect of an alternative “hybrid” approach to disability discrimination. In 2006, the United Nations adopted the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) that also encouraged the use of both quota systems and anti discrimination legislation. Since then, more countries have initiated a hybrid approach. Over thirty years after the United States enacted the ADA, and fifteen years after the U.N. introduced the CRPD, it appears that a hybrid system may indeed be both the most successful approach to improving employment outcomes for the disabled, and the new norm. | en_US |
