Susan Wendell is widely recognized as one of the pioneers of Feminist Philosophy of Disability. Her work, particularly her book The Rejected Body: Feminist Philosophical Reflections on Disability (1996), has been influential in shaping the field.

Feminist Philosophy of Disability argues that disability is not simply a medical condition or a personal tragedy, but rather a form of oppression. This oppression is rooted in societal attitudes and structures that devalue and marginalize people with disabilities.

Ableism is a key concept in Feminist Philosophy of Disability. It refers to the discrimination and prejudice against people with disabilities, as well as the societal attitudes and beliefs that perpetuate this discrimination.

Normalization is the process by which disability is constructed as a deviation from a normal or ideal body. This process involves defining disability in terms of deficits and limitations, and viewing it as something that needs to be fixed or cured.

Medicalization is the process by which disability is defined as a medical condition. This process involves viewing disability as a disease or illness, and treating it with medical interventions.

Institutionalization is the process by which people with disabilities are segregated from the rest of society. This can take the form of placing people with disabilities in special schools, hospitals, or institutions.

She developed the concept of 'intersectionality,' which highlights the ways in which different forms of oppression, such as racism, sexism, and ableism, intersect and compound each other.

Identity politics is the idea that disability is a form of identity and that disabled people have a shared experience and culture. This view emphasizes the importance of recognizing and celebrating the diversity of disability experiences and of building solidarity among disabled people.
