In his article “Adopting the Unadoptable/Disabled Subject in the Posthuman Era,” Fu-Jen Chen first examines three memoirs that demonstrate prevalent features of today’s narratives by parents with adopted children of special needs and next offers a theoretical and ontological investigation of disability. He suggests that we have to change the way we relate to disability: to recognize it not as an external limitation but an internal as well as pre-existent division and to re-orient ourselves to the ontological truth that we are always already “disabled/otherized” especially in the posthuman era when the body is seen to exceed existing boundaries of human topologies and to reinvent itself permanently along with prosthetic connections, accumulations, or consumption. Such a progress of “becoming,” though diversifying against the norm, does not necessarily challenge ableism and could be in tune with the logic of capitalism.

在后人类时代采用不可收养/残疾的主体

陈福仁在他的文章“在后人类时代采用不可收养/残疾的主体”中，首先考察了三本回忆录，这些回忆录证明了具有特殊需要的被收养子女的父母的当今叙事的普遍特征，其次提供了关于残疾的理论和本体论研究。他建议我们必须改变与残疾相关的方式：认识到它不是外部限制，而是内部和既存的分裂，并使自己重新适应我们一直是“残疾/ “异化”，特别是在后人类时代，即人们看到人体超越了人类拓扑结构的现有边界，并随着假肢的连接，积累或消费而永久地重塑自己。这样的“成为”进步，尽管违反了规范，不一定挑战能力主义，并可能与资本主义的逻辑相吻合。陈福仁，《在后人类时代采用不可收养/残障的主题》，第9页，共2页CLCWeb：比较文学与文化20.6（2018）：全球资本主义专刊信念。埃德 陈富仁
